"The painting was done in two bedrooms, hallway and the living room. They did an incredible job. It took two days. They were very neat and cleaned up each day. They arrived early each day on time and ready to work. The job looked better than I thought it would. I would definitely hire them again."

"Hired AllStar Painting & Contractor to stain my 6' wood privacy fence. I'd started to do the job myself, but after starting the job and doing hours of work and nowhere near finished, realized I'd rather have a pro do the job. Johnel from AllStarcame to my house, reviewed my project, gave quote very promptly. His price was competitive with others who gave me a quote. Today, 2 painters showed up as promised 8am, and were FINISHED with the entire job in 4 hours! They were polite, neat, respoectful of my outdoor plants, did a wonderful job (better than I could have done, plus in much less time). They're pros! They have lots of experience, let them handle it! I would hire this pro again for an indoor painting project, and highly recommend them for s project similar to my project. Competitive pricing, they do a great job, are professional, neat and courteous."

"The pro was experiences and did a good job over all. He painted each room as we requested and offered suggestions to our liking. He was careful to cover our furniture, and clean up after completing the job. The job was to be finished in 3 days, but it took 5 days, because he was working alone up until the last day. I would recommend He to others"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

The opposite is actually true: Wood stains tend to appear lighter when they’re fully dry. However, stains may darken as they weather and oxidize with age. Stains might also darken on surfaces left in direct sunlight, as UV rays can break down pigment particles and cause them to darken over time.

A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.

Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.
