"Our project involved removing wallpaper, that was painted over, painting trims, patching and covering some small tracks. We interviewed 4 companies and at the end we chose Dr Paint. They were professionals. Every day they would clean up, remove the trash. They worked on Saturday's so they can finish the job on a deadline we requested. And they did. The house looks great as a result of their work. I would recommend them to my family and friends. Great price and great job, we are very happy."

"Very good experience, Matt texted right away, set up a time and came for a quote promptly. Matt spent his time looking at the job that needed to be done and really listened to what we wanted and didn’t want and gave us a fair quote. We set the job date up with an expectation of needing two days to complete the work. Matt‘s crew were very respectful, very clean, and took their time setting up the job to protect our floors. The job was completed in the time expected. The work looked wonderful and they did a great job. They also did a really good job cleaning up after. I would recommend and hire this crew again with the highest reviews."

"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 highly recommend Chroma Art and Paint. Very professional from start to finish. The lead estimator was very thorough and took the time to explain his recommendations for the project in order to achieve the highest quality result. The estimate itself was extremely detailed so that I knew exactly what the project would cover and the cost. No hidden surprises! The crew and the project coordinator were very punctual, courteous, and professional. They kept everything well-staged and organized and finished the job quickly. They were very responsive to any questions I had throughout the job. Awesome experience and the beautiful end result!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

You can use latex or acrylic paint outdoors. Although acrylic paint tends to last longer outside, it also costs more, so if you’re painting the outside of your house, for instance, latex paint is often a go-to option. However, acrylic will be your best choice if you want to spend some extra money for added durability.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.

Essential tools include brushes or rollers, drop cloths, sandpaper or power sanders, and appropriate cleaning supplies. Quality materials ensure long-lasting results.
