"I highly recommend Juan and his crew. They painted my garage and 2 story home. Juan and his crew were prompt, polite, very professional. They answered all my questions and as they worked, they addressed all the details of the project, as we had discussed. They kept their work area clean as they painted and cleaned up the work area completely when they were finished each day. They appropriately protected areas and items near the painting that they were not painting. Juan and his crew kept me up to date with the project as it progressed. Juan and his crew were a pleasure to work with."

Also, very responsive to calls and text messages and shows up ready every time we schedule work. All the painting work that Jorge has done for us, interior and exterior, looks fantastic."

"We had our whole home painted by Five Star Painting. Chad gave a fair quote from the beginning, unlike others that way overbid and then came back later to say they had calculated wrong. This was highly appreciated. The project start was delayed a couple days but once they started, they were on time every day and worked professionally and diligently throughout the day. They ended up finishing earlier than projected. We had a lot of nail holes from the previous owners and they patched it all so it's like our walls are new. We would highly recommend this company to others and will use them again!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

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.

Yes, you can paint galvanized chain link, but the process is a bit more difficult as it requires additional prep work. Before applying the primer and paint, you must remove the original coating from the metal, which can be time-consuming. If the original coating is not removed, the primer and paint will not bond properly and cause peeling over time.

There are several ways to make a wooden fence more visually appealing and keep it that way for years to come.

  • Treat the fence with a wood sealant to protect it against the elements. It’s recommended to reseal a fence every two to three years, but if you live in a harsh climate, you may want to do it more frequently than that.

  • Restore the fence if it’s old, corroding, or fading. That includes cleaning it and making small repairs where needed.

  • Paint the fence in a color that you like, whether that’s a simple white or more vibrant option. Fences usually need to be repainted every one to three years.

  • Decorate the fence with planters, string lights, birdhouses, mirrors, shutters, and more.

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.
