"Mario and crew arrived bright and early ready to begin work each day.  The crew were professional, personable, and easy to work with. They worked diligently but also took pride in their work.  We liked the fact Mario was onsite overseeing his crew.  The holes in the ceiling where this job first started is not even noticeable.  They were respectful by covering the surrounding areas being painted with cloth and cleaning up after themselves after the work day was done.  We are happy with how the colors turned out.  What was once an interior with the white builders paint, is now a house with character thanks to Mario and team.

"They did a very nice job with our deck and exterior wood trim - everything looks great, including the wood repair and replacement. The crew were all professional and courteous, and did a thorough job, not rushing through anything just to get it done. Bottom line - we will be hiring HPO painting again to do some interior wall paper removal and painting for us."

"The work was performed to my satisfaction - it was meticulously done and I felt that they did not rush the job. They came on at least 3 occasions to put the layers of stain and the final polyurethane coat. They even found that the top of my front door wood trim had never ben stained and they offered to stain it for free. They are courteous, professional and clean up their tools and supplies before they leave for the day. Highly recommend this painter."

"Initially, I hired them to power wash and paint a small section of a rather large deck. However, when I saw how professional they were, and how well it was turning out, I added to my scope of work and had them do two decks and repair outside structures. It took them three days to complete the work, but no shortcuts were taken. They moved furniture deck furniture and replaced it. I am beyond pleased"

"My daughter found Alex and referred him to us for an interior house painting project. The job included painting the ceilings and walls in three bedrooms, changing all the window trim from black to white, and repainting the basement ceiling, walls, closet door, and the inside of the shelves from black to white. The project was completed in three and a half days, exactly as outlined in the contract agreement. The quality of the painting work was very good, and we are happy with the results. The only issue was that one item was accidentally left out of the contract. However, once I pointed it out to Alex, he immediately agreed to take care of it. Overall, we had a positive experience and appreciated his willingness to make things right."

"I’ve worked with a lot of contractors, several different types of work, and none of them. Absolutely none of them took as much pride in their work and doing an excellent job. Not good. EXCELLENT. As the crew at Trinity Quality Paint. I’d recommend, hire again, and show their work off anytime to anyone."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

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.

The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.
