"K-Rod did a good job painting. When they stained my deck, they dripped stain on my plants and trampled some of them. This is an established garden and I don’t know if the plants will come back. They did not show any care or concern my property and did not even cover the plants before staining."

"I am very happy with the quality of the paint job that Silas Silva of KLS Painting company performed. He proved to be an excellent choice among 5 other pros who sent the quotes. He was hired for painting exterior of my house and fences. I was especially impressed with how he and his crew meticulously scrapping, sanding &oil primer of all of the imperfection of the existing shingles, replacing and repairing any areas need to be done before the paint job and the result was like I got a brand new house. My house can be considered big enough and aged so the work was very time consuming and thanks to KLS painting professionals. I strongly recommend KLS painting to anyone who needs quality & afforable painting job."

"I can't say enough about how great our experience with Target Painting was. They were professional, courteous and on time. They did an excellent job painting the exterior of our house with attention to detail. Once completed, they did a walk through around the house with us to make sure nothing was missed and that we were totally satisfied. They really cared about the work and made sure we were happy with the job. We would highly recommend Target for any painting projects. We will definitely use them again for any interior painting we may need done."

"Very prompt response after initial contact. Specialty painting was exactly what I needed and this small owner-operated business fit the bill completely. We had an initial visit where we met & he assessed what needed to be done. He has a terrific eye for color, and matched exactly what I had. Scheduling was very soon thereafter, with no delays. The repair of the damaged portions of my 30-year old faux surface is now complete and nobody could ever tell a repair has been done, it is so seamless. Very reasonable price, as well. We expect to be working with Renaissance Revival on another job in our house."

"Gracy's team did an excellent job! They were always courteous and professional. When leaving for the day everything was always cleaned up. In addition to the whole inside of the house being painted, I had them paint a built in cabinet. Which also came out amazing. Looks so much more updated now. I would not hesitate recommending them, because I know I would definitely hire them again."

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!"

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

A cedar fence will actually last quite a long time even if you don’t treat it with stain. In fact, you can expect to get between 15 and 30 years out of an untreated cedar fence. However, if you want to preserve its color and extend its life, treat it with a combination stain and sealer every three to five years.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

Shadowbox fence maintenance depends on the material. But for wood shadowbox fences, maintenance typically includes annual cleaning to prevent mold growth, resealing or staining every two to three years, and promptly replacing any damaged or rotted boards. Vinyl fencing, on the other hand, typically only requires annual cleaning with a hose to maintain its appearance.
