"I recently had my shingle roof replaced and I?m very happy with the results. The team was professional, punctual, and completed the job efficiently. The quality of the work is excellent, and the new roof looks great. They kept the work area clean and communicated well throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a roof replacement."

"This home was built in 1868 and was in desperate need of a healthy paint job and repair of some minor exterior carpentry. Mike went above and beyond tackling a screened in porch, decking/stair repairs and even helping to paint another unrelated project that was happening while he was here spraying. The final result is stunning and we've had a lot of compliments. The job took a little longer than originally anticipated, but this was the result of rain and the monstrosity of the job- Mike showed up and worked around the clock including weekends."

"Andrew Wells has been a gift from God for my dire situation. I have an extremely old house which needs extensive repairs, and through Home Advisor's recommendation I hired Andrew Wells to repair numerous holes in the soffit to prevent bats and squirrels from entering my attic. So far, he has done an incredible job! I am so impressed by his honesty and devotion and reasonable prices that I intend to hire him for future repairs/work. He truly is a blessing to the field of contracting and I am most grateful that I found him through Home Advisor. Thank you!!!"

"Job the got done for a reasonable price, but a lot of cleanup and touch-ups have been required. Also missed a bunch of areas, mostly the sides of door frames. The "crew" also consisted of just one person, for most of the time. The project, instead of lasting one week, as originally scoped, ended up lasting three. Nice people, though."

"Feb. snow and rainstorms caused a large ice dam to form on our North side roof, and we had water damage in both the master bathroom and the family room.
Both ceilings had water stains--and both were cathedral ceilngs--high and difficult to reach.  We also had some cracked plaster in the corner of the family room from settling,  as well as one corner in the kitchen. The very top of the ceiling in the master bath had some loosening of the drywall tape and "mud", and since we were at it, I asked them to include this, as well as a cleaning and replacement of light bulbs in the kitchen fan--again, too high for us to get to.  Inspection of the bathroom water stain proved to be not from the ice dam, but a problem with the installation of the bathroom fan and light by the original owners--use of too small a unit and no insulation, causing lots of condensation which leaked down and stained the ceiling.  Both rooms would need repainting of the ceilings and the family room needed a total repaint.  Touch-up of the bathroom wall where some nails had popped and needed recovering would be enough. They matched our 9 year old paint perfectly.
The men arrived punctually each of the three days it required.  They moved and/or covered furnishings and carpeting both in the rooms and in the hallways to protect  them and were very careful to keep dust and dirt to a minimum, and cleaned everything up each night so we could resume normal  living.  They did a great job with everything, and installed a new fan unit of the correct size in the bathroom--cleaned up my kitchen ceiling, and made the fan/light unit look like new. The men were courteous and good at their jobs and did everything we had asked.
Our house looks great again, and we are very satisfied with the company, their estimator Phil; Joe, their supervisor, and his crew.
We'd hire them again in a heartbeat!

"Henio and Kesley from Top Painting were amazing. I talked to several companies before hiring them and was not confident with the information I received from others. I knew I wanted to hire Top Painting within minutes of talking to them. They came to my condo, examined the job and explained in great detail what would be required to complete the project so that it would not only look good in the short term, but last for the long haul. The condo I bought was in pretty awful condition. It used to be an old hotel room and so had commercial grade vinyl wallpaper on the walls which was coated with layers and layers of old paint and reeked of cigarette smoke and other bad smells. The popcorn ceiling was smoke-stained and yellowed, as well. I was warned by the condo association and other owners in the building not to attempt to remove the wallpaper because of the industrial grade glue and the damage to the walls underneath, but I was determined to make this happen and Henio and Kesley inspired confidence. They acknowledged the difficulty and explained everything it would take to make it happen. They removed the wall paper, painstakingly removed all of the commercial grade glue, fixed the walls, re-plastered, filled holes in the baseboards, etc. The final product was a beautifully painted condo which not only looks amazing but also smells fresh and clean. Henio and Kesley were very responsive. They sent me progress videos when I was unable to come to the condo to see the project. They always responded to calls and texts in a timely manner. They showed up when they said they would and they even finished the job several days earlier than they projected which was a wonderful surprise. The building manager told me that they were incredibly respectful, professional, quiet and wonderful to work with. He has been managing this condo building for over 25 years and told me that most contractors were incredibly hard to deal with but that Top Painting was a breath of fresh air. Henio and Kesley went above and beyond during this project. There were many things on my list to do after the painting was completed, such as fixing the track for the blinds that was falling out of the ceiling and replacing one of the large blinds which had fallen off the contraption. To my surprise and delight, Kesley and Henio fixed these things for me as they replaced everything after finishing the job. They could have just put it back the way they found it and I still would have given them a glowing review. After all, I hired them for the walls, not these other things. But they went above and beyond and left my condo far better than they found it. The walls look amazing and I am confident that the work is durable and will last. I can't recommend Top Painting highly enough!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Waterproof paint creates a barrier to hold back moisture, but it doesn’t eliminate the source of the water. If you hire a basement waterproofing contractor, many will tell you that waterproof paint is only a temporary solution. On average, you can expect it to last from six months to two years in a wet basement before deteriorating.
