"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!"

"Did a good job installing a new frame and back door. They took the existing screen door and installed it. No more gap at the bottom and air tight! the only problem I had, is after they left, I found damage to the new door around the hardware bolt exits were pieces of the door had been broken off. That's why quality is at a 4 star. Other than that, they were cheaper than other quotes and very friendly/professional. I plan to use them again for other projects."

"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."

"In my 30+ years of being a homeowner, I've hired 6-8 different painters. Now Premier Painting Group will be the only painter I hire. Cesar's crew is amazing. They are very meticulous and careful. Covered all my furniture and cabinets with either cloth or plastic. Covered the hardwood floors as well. They go above and beyond every time and their prices are excellent. They recently finished my 3 job with them and I couldn't be happier with the results. Wish I could give them 10 stars!!!"

"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

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

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.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

The best type of paint to use for chain link fences is an oil-based paint. Oil-based paints are durable and will withstand the elements well. Search for an oil-based paint with rust protection and aluminum flakes to further protect the longevity of the fence.

You can weather a new wood fence by applying vinegar with steel wool as a way to fade some of the coloring. You may also find it easier to stain your entire fence a new color instead of trying to get newer fence boards to match an older one.
