"Dan was timely in giving me a quote and then scheduled the work a month or so out to fit my schedule. He and his team did just as they promised. They cleaned the siding and gutters, caulked any cracks, replaced a few cedar boards and then painted it all with a thick coat of Sherwin Williams paint. It looks great and they left no mess. Will use Dan for my future painting."

"We called Custom Colors to get an estimate to paint the entire lower level of our home, the stair and hallways, and two bedrooms in the upstairs.  Mark came to our house within a few hours of calling to prepare an estimate.  He answered all of our questions and provided a lot of information while looking through the house.  The estimate arrived within a week.  While it was the lowest bid we received, we chose Custom Colors in large part because we felt that the team would do a quality job.  We were not disappointed! Mark told us he would be able to complete the work towards the end of September.  He called at the beginning of the last week of September to schedule the job for later that week.  The crew arrived very promptly on the morning they were scheduled and started work immediately.  They were very careful in our home and made a point to keep things very tidy while working.  It was also a huge bonus that they moved all of the furniture away from the walls for us and returned it to the original position.  Most importantly though, our walls look great!  The paint they used is very high quality and has already withstood a few marks.  Overall the walls are very even; we've only noticed a few very small paint drips.  The foreman on the crew was especially helpful.  After the first day of painting, we noticed a small patch of paint showing through where we had tested some paint samples.  The team repaired this and made sure our other sample areas did not show through before leaving for the day.  Overall, our experience was very positive, and we would definitely work with Custom Colors again.

"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."

I contacted Dennie regarding the repair and he came out the same day to see what needed to be done. He assured me that it could be repaired and repainted and re-textured back to it's original condition. He worked around my schedule. He did the patch one day and then returned the next day to introduce his employee and brief him on the project. Horatio painted the entire section of wall affected ( so that the paint would match).. Per my request, I also had Horatio paint some window trim that had needed a touch up. Dennie charged me a nominal amount. Horatio did a terrific job on both of the painting projects. Dennie's drywall repair was perfect. No one will ever know that the drywall had even been damaged! Dennie returned later in the day to check Horatio's work and to collect payment. Dennie was so friendly...as was Horatio...! I would definitely recommend him again...although I hope I do not  have any more drywall holes in my future!

"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."

"Steve and his team did a great job in every aspect of this project. They were quick to come out and give us an estimate and start on painting the bedroom. The work is immaculate and they cleaned up very well after themselves. I highly recommend this company and already plan on using them again to stain my exterior door."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You can paint over old paint on a concrete porch. For the best results, you should first clean the surface and remove as much paint as you can. A power washer is helpful here, but you’ll also want to scrape as much of the old paint away as possible. Then you should prime the porch before repainting it.

If your biggest concern is making sure your deck doesn’t show dirt, opt for a darker neutral color that blends in well with your surrounding landscape. A rich brown or dark grey are both good options that work with a variety of house colors. A high-quality acrylic paint is easy to clean and maintain, so it might be worth spending the money on.

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.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.
