"Rodrigo was polite and nice. He gave me a good price . He was prompt and the work looks great. I had a small walkout deck that needed to be cleaned and painted stained. I had it painted. Rodriguez explained to me the process and time He explained to me the paint and that it would provide protection for deck. I like being informed on time lines and process. The deck looks so great my neighbor ask for his number as well. I m very happy. I have several jobs that I plan to hire him. Thanks so much Rodrigo and home advisor for sending me a reliable person. I m a new , first time home owner and I m a bit nervous about everything. Glad now I have my Painting and etc company"

I started painting when I was 17 years old. My brother and I painted a whole condo when COVID hit, and that's what put food on the table. Even though it was a hard task to accomplish, I was able to watch and learn from a lot of people. Later, I entered into a fast-paced painting company with jobs brought by CertaPro. I learned the good and bad things about painting and drywall. Throughout the years, I have learned that my customers are the very first thing that comes to mind when I do a job for them. Quality goes a long way.

"JRG did an absolutely fantastic job in every respect painting and repairing our deck and pergola. The preparation work was excellent and the painting was done with great care and with excellence on being sure it was all done right. They are on-time professionals who communicate with you all along the way making sure you are completely happy. JRG is surely one of the very best home improvement contractors I have ever worked with. They will be the first company I call for on anything else I need for my homes projects."

Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

The best time to stain a fence is when the weather is dry and temperatures are between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Late spring, early summer, and fall are typically the best seasons for this project. You should avoid staining during very hot weather, like in the middle of summer, or when it is raining. Heat and moisture can cause the stain to dry unevenly. Likewise, if it's too cold, such as in winter or early spring, the stain may not be able to dry fully. Before you start, check the forecast to ensure there will be no rain and low humidity for at least a few days.

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.
