"Ken and Dan from Performance Painting were absolutely exceptional! They gave me excellent guidance--what to do about my rotting wooden deck--were fair and reasonable in their estimates, meticulous in their work down to the tiniest detail, and a delight to work with. When my deck stairs proved to be completely rotten and had to be rebuilt from scratch, they worked 12 hour days to keep the project on the original timeline. I highly recommend them for any of your projects. You won't be disappointed."

"Excellent from the detailed proposal to the complete cleanup. Derek and crew was professional, prepared, easy to work with, quick and quiet doing the ceiling repairs and fixing ceiling and wall stains, matching paint, and just excellent in all work. They moved the heavy China cabinet, covered all items with taping and plastic and drop cloths. They even shook out the drop cloths outside make certain they were clean."

"We could not be more thrilled or satisfied with the quality of work from the team @ Sharp Edge Paint and Remodel. We recently purchased a home in Oswego and needed a quote for painting our entire first floor + 2 bedrooms AND our kitchen cabinets. Within 2 MINUTES of our bid on Angis list, Derek contacted my fiance and came out within 2 hours to provide a quote. Derek was so humble, reassuring, professional, and provided us a quote we felt good about. Hed had a job that canceled and so his crew was able to start the very next day. He wrapped up our project within 4 days and even went above and beyond when we had changed our minds on which secondary bedroom to paint, even after hed done the one we originally asked for. He took it in stride, repainted the room back to white and quickly got to work on the revised room. We made a number of last minute asks and none were too complex for Derek, he happily accommodated us. Upon finish, he went above and beyond and even came back to install bumpers on our cabinets so they wouldnt slam. We didnt even ask for that! Derek also came back to help us mount 3 large TVs, 3 big mirrors and he even helped us rewire a broken canned light in our kitchen. We spent so much time with Derek and his team that we missed them when they stopped coming lol anyway, the quality of the work is 5+ stars but the quality of the team is off the charts. Dont make the mistake of NOT booking them for your next project. It would be your loss."

"I hired 360 Painting of Yorkville to repair drywall tape failures on my main level ceiling, walls in my hallway, master bedroom/bathroom, and powder room, as well as 2 stress cracks under 2 of my windows in our home. Adam came out and walked with me through my home to give us our estimate. The price was very reasonable! All of the work was done in 2 days. The team of painters was very professional and courteous. They arrived right at 8:00 both mornings, and they covered all of my floors, cabinets, counters, and furniture to protect them from dust and paint. Everything was repaired very well and you can't tell where they did any of the work! They matched all of my existing paint perfectly! I found some additional things I decided I wanted fixed after the first day, so I contacted Adam, and he added them to my proposal and the team was still able to complete the job in 2 days, even with all the extra things I added on a whim! And the pricing was still extremely reasonable! I would HIGHLY recommend 360 Painting to anyone looking to either have a basic paint done, or even if you need major repairs!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

No, you don't need to stain Ipe decking, although you can if you want to change the color. You will, however, need to apply a UV coating if you don't want the natural color to fade. Speak to a deck staining specialist near you to discuss the best options if you want to stain your decking. And remember that you’ll need to seal your Ipe wood deck annually to protect it from scratches and Mother Nature.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.
