"All the people I met listened to my needs. They managed to get a pasta sauce stain out of my ceiling! I am really glad to see that gone. The painters were both professional and meticulous. My ceilings have never looked so good. We have already started talking about painting the rest of the house and will call Brian and his team to do the job. Thanks for the great service!"

"I hired these professionals to paint all the units in my apartment building. They replaced all the plaster, painted all the cabinets and walls, replaced the flooring and put new vinyl, and replaced all the doors. Everyone was very kind, professional, friendly, and efficient. I highly recommend Amazon Painting Plus for your painting needs, and they do more than just painting! You will not be disappointed!"

"Very happy with Sadot and his family business. He personally answers the phone 24/7 ( not a call center or 3rd party ) You deal directly with the owner. He communicates every day. He power washed old stain off, fixed and repaired bad and rotten wood, re-stained the desk. He followed price quote, he completed in time frame is originally stated, Workmanship of repairs and staining was PERFECT..these guys ( all family members ) are perfectionist, made sure I was a ratified customer, and his price was VERY REASONABLE, The next time I need anything related to painting, or exterior wood repair and finishing, he will be my first and maybe only call because I trust him, and I don't trust most people, but he earned my trust and confidence."

"I wanted to get my house painted, wood stained and a couple leaks in the ceiling fixed. I reached out on Angi where they recommended MNM. I'm really happy that I decided to go with them. They have really good reviews and I saw some of their pictures on their website. Guillermo was super responsive and they started the project within days. I've lived in this house for 10 years and have done nothing with these walls so they had a lot of work to do. I'm so extremely happy with the outcome. They transformed this house. Guillermo and Sammy were both so kind and professional. If I had anything that I noticed that needed a touch-up Guillermo came back in about a week and fixed everything. Very trustworthy, Great price and extremely professional. They will be my go-to for any painting projects moving forward. Thank you both so much for all your hard work!"

"Taulant did a great job with my small drywall project. He arrived last Saturday morning and finished the job later that afternoon. I will do my own painting and I'm confident it will look seamless once painted. I strongly recommend him"

"I hired Professional Painter to paint my whole interior of two floors, about 5-6 rooms total. The team came and did such an amazing job. They were a few minutes early, prepped everything and when finished, i was pleasantly surprised at how quickly and beautifully the paint looked! I would highly recommend them for any paint work."

"Paul was amazing. I will definitely use him for future painting, handyman projects. He checked all the boxes-efficiency, great attention to detail, and respectful. AND, he used the most cost effective way to repair my water stained ceiling. The results are perfect."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Regular cleaning, rust-proof coatings, and checking fasteners help prolong the lifespan.

Manufacturers use a different process and formula for exterior paint versus interior. The exterior formula has to withstand elements like temperature, UV lighting, moisture, wind, and debris. Interior paint doesn’t need to be as tough, only exposed to dust, scratches, dents, scuff marks, and the like.

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.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Both a roller and a brush are effective methods for painting a chain link fence. A roller will make the job easier by ensuring symmetrical strokes and reaching the backside of the fence as well, which cuts down on paint time. However, a brush is often necessary for painting the base of the fence and near the posts due to its ease of reaching smaller spaces.
