"Olde England Painting is amazing! They were what every home owner dreams of for repairs. I hired them for painting my house (2 story dutch colonial) which sorely needed a lot of work with peeling paint and rotted wood in several places. Their quote was a bit lower than the highest I had but Paul Adkins was so very professional and explained every step and the materials he would use so well that I was convinced he would be a good choice - and he absolutely was. Paul and his crew exceeded my expectations. The job took 7 days and each day they cleaned up in the evening and set up promptly the next morning. The cleaning, priming, wood repairs, painting, trim were all done perfectly. They even found when replacing a board on the porch that behind it was a wooden medallion that had been hidden for decades. After showing me they renovated the whole thing and painted it to look like beautiful brass at no additional charge. Further, after seeing the great job they did on cleaning the house cedar shingles, I asked them to do my wood deck which they did beautifully. Paul suggested a sealant that has made the deck look completely new. In hind sight the cost was the best money I have spent in many years and unquestionably the best work I have ever had done. No delays, exceptionally skillful, and truly professional."

"Peter came out to my house to give me my estimate. We walked the property together so he could ask any necessary questions about the paint job. Peter noticed some rotted boards that was present that I haven't noticed before. He told me not to worry his guys could take care of that too. He explained how they prepped the house so the paint job lasted. Peter was very knowledgeable when he was explaining the whole paint process. When his guys showed up for work they were very polite and professional. Everyday before it ended they spent about a hour cleaning up and picking up the yard so it was presentable and moved the ladders close to the house so the kids didn't get hurt while playing in the yard. I will be needing the interior of my house painted and North Shore Painting will be the only phone call for that task."

"I highly recommend Kennedy Painting! Brain (the owner) was very personable and provided excellent customer service. When we walked around my house to going over what work needed to be done, he asked a lot questions and gave me some advice about different projects around the house. He also provided more than one estimate, so that we have different options to which we could choose from. Brian’s crew worked efficiently and did an excellent job with our exterior trim and deck. They scraped, sanded, primed and painted the trim of our house and sanded and painted our deck, not only to make it look better, but to preserve it for years to come. Thank you Kennedy Painting!"

"We had all the interior of our home painted and some carpentry work done as well. In addition, we had our kitchen cabinets painted white to modernize the appearance. We had a railing placed in our home. The Quality of the Painting was Exceptional. The painters did an outstanding job. Their work was of high quality and detailed oriented. They were always on time and extremely neat. It was a pleasure to have the painters in our home. Our home looks refreshed and beautiful. We would hire Quality Preferred Painting again. If you want exceptional painting and carpentry work done in your home or business with a highly professional team, call Steve Austin."

"Erivan and his assistant did an amazing job! They showed up right on time, prepped EVERY surface, and worked all day. Lots of attention to detail. The end result was stunning. Some of our ceilings had old water damage, and when I expressed concern that the stains might "bleed through," he went above and beyond to cover those areas. I would highly recommend!"

"Fernando handled the painting and prep work for our new custom built-in. Fernando was very-punctual for all on-site work and always left the place clean. His attention to detail is outstanding and you can really tell he wants you to be happy with the finished product. My wife and I could not be happier with the work. Highly recommend!"

"Marco is an amazing pro with a team to match who knows every part of a complex paint job such as our exterior units. He helped us decide between oil stains and solid paints and gave us plenty of help by application of samples to our wood siding. His carpentars made all necessary repairs and replacement to the siding and the trim. When it rained they held off any work and he put extra workers on it so we finished it in a timely manner. I will definitely hire Marco for future work both exterior and interior. He wasn’t the cheapest bid, but when additional changes were needed he worked with us to stay within a reasonable budget. Bravo Marco!!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

It’s often best to spray on deck sealer. Sprayers can apply sealant more quickly and evenly than rolling while still enabling you to reach tight spaces. When using a sprayer, always use a low-pressure setting at a close distance to ensure an even application. Avoid using sprayers on windy days.

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

It’s best to use an exterior latex acrylic paint to promote maximum adhesion to composite decking. This flexible paint type can better cope with the natural expansion and contraction that can occur with composite deck boards. Oil-based paints won’t adhere as effectively and are more likely to crack and peel as the boards flex. Testing whether your chosen paint will stick on an inconspicuous section or a spare board is a good idea.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.
