"Dan with Jimdandi Painting was very knowledgeable and does Grade A+++ work. My garage floor was absolutely a mess with oil and all kinds of different stains. He was able to clean the floor and make repairs. The finish turned out great. It looks like a showroom floor now.
After he did my garage floor I knew I wanted him to do work inside my house. He helped me with color combos to get the effect I was looking for.  This room I spend the most time in watching games and I couldn't have asked for a better turn out. This room had some drywall repairs that were needed and a lot of sanding. He was very professional in making sure to keep the dust level down.
He also did my three bed rooms and the closet in my master bedroom. The master bedroom closet was left with a lot of unfinished wood and had a funny smell. He was able to get rid of the smell and give a nice finish to the closet. The last room I had painted was my living room. I had two colors picked out that I hadn't decided on in which he suggested an accent wall.
 All my rooms turned out perfect. He was professional and all work was done in a timely manner. I would suggest using Jimdandi painting. I will be looking to get the outside of my house done in the spring time."

"They showed up on time, did an amazing job. They also power washed, stained and seal coated my deck and floor of my gazebo. They cleaned up thoroughly at the end of everyday! Danny and his brother and helper honored the estimate they gave us last year... they also warranty their work and gave us a copy. I would highly recommend them to others and cannot say enough good things about them."

"We have been homeowners for 40 years and this was probably the best service we have received as homeowners. Their work involved prep and painting on a three story house. They also worked on three different deck areas. They completed all of the items in the contract and also replaced some rotted wood at the top of our house which was discovered by the workers on the roof. We had some questions during the six day process and they were addressed immediately by the owner of the business. Their work on our house was outstanding. Based on our experience, we would highly recommend C & Z Painting."

They came out in a timely way for the estimate and when we finallly decided to go with them they completed the construction in 2 days. It has made our backyard so much ore usable and the work is very professional and excellent quality."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

You don’t necessarily have to remove all the old paint before repainting your deck, but it’s best to remove as much as possible to ensure a smooth and long-lasting finish. Prioritize scraping off loose, peeling, or flaking paint, and sand down rough areas to create a smooth surface for the new paint to bond with.

You have a couple of options when choosing a durable pool deck coating. Epoxy is common and offers excellent stain and water resistance. Epoxy also withstands high temperatures and UV lighting, making it ideal for sunny spots. You can also add a coating to cement, which significantly lowers the temperature of the concrete, is environmentally safe, and makes cleanup a breeze.
