"Jacob and crew painted our house and did a great job. Very professional. He was great at communicating timelines and letting me know when they would be coming. The crew was very respectful of us and our dogs. The paint job was a difficult one, but they handled it with ease. His quote was very close to the final invoice. I am very pleased with the final outcome. I would highly recommend him. They also do interior painting. Thanks Jacob!"

"We are so happy with the work he did on our house! He painted the yellow brick on the front of our home and the before and after speaks for itself. It looks like a completely different house! Everything looks so much cleaner, brighter, and more modern. He was professional, dependable, and really took his time to make sure the job was done right. You can tell he genuinely cares about the quality of his work and about making sure his customers are happy. We couldn’t be happier with the finished result. If you’ve been thinking about having your brick or exterior painted, I definitely recommend reaching out to him. Great work, great service, and someone we would absolutely hire again!"

"Highly recommend for your interior painting needs in Peoria, Illinois! Amazing experience from start to finish. We went with Blank Slate at the recommendation of a contractor after getting several quotes. The quote was fair, they were able to get us in earlier than we expected and the end result is amazing! Our house had a lot of damage from previous owners. The trim was in bad shape, the walls were also rough and the entire house needed to be painted from top to bottom. It looks like a brand new house! Communication is amazing as well. We will use them again in the future!"

"I contacted World Painting after CertaPro dropped out of sight.  We quickly got an appointment with them and they were ready to give us a bid that day.  The price was reasonable and it included power washing, caulking, and painting our porch floor along with the entire house.
They were able to start within the week and kept us updated through out the project, letting us know what was the next step and when it would be completed.  Customer service was excellent.  When I had a question they called me back within the hour. 
They did an amazing job and we have gotten tons of compliments on it.  We would definitely use them again.

"Joe and Eric were extremely easy to work with and the price for services was very reasonable. We posed some unique design requests and they took on the challenges without resistance. We absolutely love the results. The kitchen Klear Vue cabinets look fabulous in the new layout Joe helped us design around our supporting beams. We now have an island with a sink, which required plumbing and electrical work. The backsplash we picked out was tricky, but Joe revisited the job to make sure it was secured. His recommendations on lighting were great and he willingly adjusted the locations more than once. We are just as pleased with the bathrooms. Joe built a cabinet, stripped walls, and painted tile in addition to laying floor which all look absolutely beautiful."

"Based on our past experience with AOM (interior painting), we used them to powerwash our home. They had all the appropriate equipment and did an excellent job. Our 20 year old vinyl siding looks totally refreshed. David is easy to work with and goes the extra mile. We will continue to AOM for future projects.

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.  

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

We don’t recommend it. A wired brush or a brush with metal bristles damages concrete and asphalt during the stain removal process. For the best results, stick to nylon stiff enough to do the job but gentle enough to keep from scratching the driveway. For extra caution, skip the brush entirely and use towels.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.
