"This spring I decided to repaint the walls inside my entire house and my garage. Quality Painting was the first place I called for a bid. I had used Quality Painting a few years ago to paint my ceilings and they did an outstanding job. Sure enough, his bid was very affordable and I knew from my own experience with him he'd do a wonderful job. William Stephens is honest and trustworthy, he shows up when he says he will, works efficiently and quickly, and cleans everything up when he's done. And most importantly, his work is beautiful! You will NOT be disappointed if you hire William Stephens with Quality Painting for your painting projects. I enthusiastically recommend him to anyone!"

"Clean Cut Painting and Handyman in Decatur completed several projects for us and I could not be more pleased. They refinished our deck, replaced a bathroom exhaust fan and living room ceiling fan. They also patched drywall and painted the walls and ceiling in our garage. The quality of work was excellent and the work was completed in a timely manner for all of these jobs. I highly recommend Clean Cut in Decatur for almost any home improvement or repair job you may need."

"David gave us a very competitive proposal and outlined benefits of various paint types. He arrived promptly each day and completed the job on timea as agreed. As he is hearing impaired, most of our communication was by notes but after the initial confusion, this was not a problem. His telephone is served by a translating service."

Painting questions, answered by experts

If you paint a vinyl fence, it will likely stick to it for only a brief amount of time. This is because vinyl is not a porous material, so it's not an ideal surface for holding paint. Initially, paint will stick to your fence, but it will eventually peel off. Applying primer before painting your vinyl fence will help paint last longer. Certain primers are well-suited to vinyl, which means you can paint vinyl siding with the proper preparation.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

Staining a wood fence isn’t guaranteed to prevent warping, but it can help. Plus, it’s a beginner-friendly DIY project that you can finish in a few days. If you want to try it, you’ll start by stripping it of any old stain or paint, then sanding it. After that, you’ll clean it and spot-treat any mold or mildew. When it’s dry, you can apply the stain.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

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.
