"Al and his team at Essential Painting were fantastic. They painted the interior of our house, stained the front door, pressure washed the deck and pool patio, and repaired the deck. They provided a detailed proposal at a competitive price. They were prompt and completed the work as scheduled. They did an excellent job. The team was friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend them."

"We asked for estimates to stain the exterior of our house. Ozzy handled the estimate process the best of the three companies we contacted. He has a friendly, professional manner and his price was in line with the other quotes. Ed did the work and he worked very hard and was polite and very accommodating. Ozzy put in extra effort to get our color choice matched just right. He came to set up the job with Ed and returned to inspect when the job was done. Ozzy spent time painting areas he thought needed improvement, but we hadn't noticed. He then used a blower around the house and took the debris away -- a very nice extra touch! Will hire them again for our painting needs."

"Evolution Painting completed my deck, carpentry and painting project today. The team produced an extraordinary result. Multiple coats of oil based stain on the Mahogony deck look beautiful. The carpentry work was precise. The painting and color matching couldn't be better. Not only that, but they were the cheapest of all the five pros sent to me. I would absolutely recommend them. They even performed other services (like fixing my gutters and downspout) without cost. The final result is perfection in my eyes. I will upload some photos once its dry."

Customers say: Quality work

"I recently had B & R Painting Home Improvement come to my home to paint the walls from my hallway into the kitchen, as well as the ceilings in my kitchen, bathroom, and hallway, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The owner, Ronaldo Renzo, came out with another painter and they both did an outstanding job. Their attention to detail was incredible – clean lines, smooth ceilings, and everything looks fresh and bright. They were professional, on time, respectful of my home, and left everything spotless when they were finished. From start to finish, communication was clear and easy, and the price was very fair for the quality of work. I’m thrilled with how everything came out and will definitely be using them again for future projects. Highly recommend B & R Painting Home Improvement and Ronaldo Renzo to anyone looking for top notch painting work!"

"You should not hesitate to hire SBL Painting. They are my go-to resource for all my painting needs. They have painted both interior and exterior of my home. We have planned projects and unplanned projects. I needed a bedroom painted quickly and Shay was able to send a crew over and had the project finished in a day. They are knowledgeable, professional, courteous and reliable. You will not be disappointed."

"Ours is a small condo association of 5 houses. We called about 4 painting companies to look at our decks and give us a quote on Deck painting/staining. What is good about Rick's painting service and especially Rick is that he will come over at a time convenient to us unlike other companies who mostly look at their own convenience. Even though it was drizzling Rick showed up, waited for the rain to stop, he looked at the decks gave us some good suggestion and gave us a few pointers to think about. His quote was within our budget so we assigned him the project. Rick is very professional in his approach before he started the project he spoke to all unit owners and explained them how exactly he will stain/paint the deck. His team is also very professional they made sure garden beds near the deck is covered before they started the work, they made sure our lawn is not damaged by the stain/paint and chemicals. All the 5 unit owners are very happy with Ricks work. Another thing which i should mention is that he is very accommodating, our association due to this COVID scenario could not release his payment on time but Rick did not make a fuss about it he finished his job on time. I would recommend him to my friends and family."

Painting FAQs, 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.

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.

Acrylic latex paint is the best option to use on your outdoor wrought iron fence, because it holds up well against the elements. Use a high-quality, exterior-grade paint specifically designed for use on metal. You can choose between spray paint or regular liquid paint. As for primer, it's best to use an oil-based and rust inhibiting option before painting your wrought iron fence.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

You can weather a new wood fence by applying vinegar with steel wool as a way to fade some of the coloring. You may also find it easier to stain your entire fence a new color instead of trying to get newer fence boards to match an older one.
