Don Carvey Painting was established in 1996. My company has 2 employees and I work on all my painting and wallpapering jobs.

"I hired Don to paint my upstairs bedrooms, front room, staircase, and staircase walls. He gave me a reasonable estimate. What I respected about his service was he was punctual, finished the job within the timeframe, and cleaned up each day when he finished. I would recommend Don Carvey Painting for any interior painting job. My upstairs looks amazing!"

"They did an excellent job. I usually do painting myself. However the high ceiling and beams are too much for me. This was worth every penny I spent. They were reasonable in price . Because of the pricing I had them do a bedroom on top of the living room and hallway. Victor (painter) was making sure everything was correct and what I expected. He also patched my walls where necessary. Ruthanne at office was awesome! I probably now will just hire these guys when painting needs to be done in future. They made it easy and affordable."

Started business in 1983 as specialty cleaning mainly acoustical tile ceilings and soon got involved with interior painting with a somewhat large apartment rehab project and expanded from there. Although we are a family owned and operated with myself and two sons we are able to accomplish a wide variety of painting and decorating projects through out the years.We do small jobs such as a residential bath or kitchen or larger jobs also such as car dealerships, whole apartment complexes. Also in shop finishing work such as mill work, doors, cabinets, and just about anything that a customer may need as it relates to painting or finishing. With any good tradesman it comes down to the details, know-how, professionalism.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Your porch could be crumbling due to poor installation, freeze and thaw cycles, or intense pressure washing or sandblasting. If your concrete was poured and cured improperly, moisture can seep into the concrete. When the water freezes and thaws, it causes stress to the structure, leading to cracks and crumbling. If you pressure wash concrete on too high of a setting or sandblast the surface, the concrete can also crumble. 

The main cause of a rotting porch post is prolonged exposure to moisture. So, the best way to prevent rot is to eliminate and guard against moisture.

  • Use wood caulk to seal any cracks, openings, or areas along the post where water is likely to pool.

  • Secure porch posts into concrete, if possible.

  • Cover wooden posts with protective sleeves or wraps, often made of vinyl.

  • Install metal post anchors for extra support.

A porch roof will be prone to leaking if it suffers damage from extreme weather events, or if it was improperly installed and waterproofed from the get-go. In some cases, a porch roof will be leaky simply because it's at the end of its lifespan and needs to be replaced. Proper maintenance and promptly repairing damage from high winds and hail will help keep your porch roof from leaking.

To maintain a portico, you need to ensure that your portico roof has proper drainage. Poor drainage can lead to water seeping into the wooden structure and eventually causing rot. You’ll also want to regularly clean your portico columns, removing dirt or scuff marks using a clean, wet cloth.

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.
