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

You can either nail or screw deck boards according to your preference. We recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws in this guide because screws offer superior holding powder over time. If you’re using screws, you can minimize the risk of cracking the boards by drilling small pilot holes before securing the boards to the deck joists.

The cost to repair a deck is between $900 and $3,500, depending on the cause and extent of the damage. For example, fixing a sinking deck caused by pest damage can cost between $200 and $600, while replacing sinking boards costs between $500 and $4,000.

The cost to install a porch column typically runs between $300 and $600, although it can range as low as $300 or as high as $2,500. Most homeowners will pay about $400 for a porch column. The materials you choose and whether the column is ornamental or load-bearing will impact the final cost.

Spindles on a deck may also be called balusters or pickets. While not as important to the structural support of the deck as the rail posts, they play a critical role in ensuring the deck is safe to use by closing in large gaps in the railing. For this reason, balusters must be no more than 4 inches away from one another.

No, it isn’t necessary to skirt a deck, but investing in the cost to install deck skirting can bring more value to your home. Not only does deck skirting make the deck look more complete, but it can also turn otherwise unused space beneath the deck into useful storage space.
