"C& Painting is a family owned business and is outstanding. They stained the siding of our redwood house, painted all of the windows on the outside and stain the top and bottom of a large raised deck. They were always on time with a smile and a happy demeanor all day long. The preparation for staining and painting was done with particular care to use the best products that were compatible with the various stains and paints and was meticulously done paying attention to every detail. By the way, none of the windows were painted shut. Five stars is not enough to describe this very special painting company. The owner and his wife are very talented and the job was fairly priced. I would not hesitate to use them again for any painting job."

"We recently used Fame Interiors for painting the exterior trim on the house and interior painting of our family room. Fame did an excellent job on both the interior and exterior work. Ali, the owner of the company, was a pleasure working with him. He didn't cut corners. We were planning on replacing our overhead garage doors, but the paint and putty job that he did on the doors no longer required replacing them. In short, his price and the quality of his work makes him our "go to" painter."

"Edward and his team repaired, power washed and stained our deck, stained our fence, sealed nail holes in our siding and touched up the paint on the siding. The quote was very reasonable and the work was completely quickly. Edward also took the time to answer all of my questions via email or text and performed touch-ups. I would hire this company again."

"Kyle was fantastic! He came to my house right away and gave us an estimate. We were planning to initially go with them, but then my husband (and our previous contractor) were so skeptical about the 1 day painting we decided to put it off and even "gasp" considered painting it ourselves!
Thank good I ended up calling Kyle back (despite my husband's skepticism) - he and his team were great! While they do have a color consultant, i chose the colors myself by getting a couple of samples from Sherwin Williams and putting it up on the wall.
Kyle & his team of 5 painters arrived promptly at 8am as they said they would. While they were 1 painter short compared to what they planned, they were AMAZING. They did 3-4 hours of prep (more prep on my walls than we thought) and painted all of the walls the first day. I believe the prep involved sanding, some priming, and patchwork (though they could tell you the specifics). They cleaned a few times throughout the day and draped the entire floor. I had started to move some of the items before they came but they moved the other stuff (and in fact had told me they would be moving it all ahead of time). On day 2, they did all of the trim and doors. Just 3 people came that day and finished the job within a few hours. It was not at all intrusive, and I hardly even noticed they were there the 2nd day.  I am most amazed at how perfectly they cut in the lines!
Kyle came multiple times throughout to make sure that everything was done properly. They even removed some of the old alarm system equipment and intercom that wasn't working for me without hesitation.
I cannot tell you enough how shocked my husband was when he saw their work. After the first day he went downstairs and actually said "wow" - and realized why they are called WOW 1 day painting. We would both STRONGLY recommend Kyle and his team for the job as they are extremely professional, detail oriented, fast, clean, and just amazing. If you're even considering a new color but are overwhelmed  by the process of painting and the time it will take, don't. Hire these guys, they will make it seem so easy.

"J.H. Painting Services did great exterior work on my home this weekend. I had exterior siding and deck power washed, front door painted, and brick foundation painted. All work was done at a high level of quality and in a timely manner. Communication for planning each of the tasks easy and reliable. Contractor arrived on time. I highly recommend for power washing and paint jobs."

"This is our fourth time using Diaz for our home renovations. He refinished and stained floors and painted several rooms. He also rebuilt an upstairs deck. In addition, he took care of about 10 other little things that needed fixing. As always, Diaz was the best contractor we’ve ever encountered. He came right out for a free estimate. He gave us constructive advice on the proposed work. His crew got started right away - they were reliable, on time, courteous, and cleaned up impeccably each day. Diaz stuck to his estimate. In addition to all these positive traits, one of the best things is that Diaz and his team can literally take care of anything. You will not have to rely on a subcontractor or having to call somebody else - he does painting, flooring, kitchens, doors/windows, drywall work, tiling, bathrooms, etc. He even has his own tree guy and electrician for when those things come up. He doesn’t just do everything, but everything is done to perfection. Highly recommended!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Hiring a contractor or professional deck refinisher is the best way to ensure your deck is properly stained. They have the expertise, tools, and supplies to do the job quickly and efficiently. However, staining a deck is a manageable task for most homeowners, and doing the job yourself can save money. Just keep in mind that DIY staining is a long process requiring physical strain, so it may not be the best option for everyone.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.
