"Wilber and his team did a good job. There were some touchups for the paint and stain that required the crew to come back (perhaps I'm a bit demanding), but overall I'm pleased. The natural oak stain on the stairs was well matched to the existing flooring and the paint job was well done with Sherwin Williams Cashmere (upcharge from Promar). Overall a good value."

"Last spring C&Painting did a great job on the entryway, kitchen, main living/dining area and hall in my condo. I contracted Jose again this year to paint our master bedroom suite, guest bedroom and bathroom, and we were again very pleased. We did not need ceilings or trim done. Jose and crew are reliable, professional, careful with your furniture, carpeting etc., and aim to please. They also clean up when done. I can happily recommend them."

"Craig Merrill and his team were a great pleasure to work with. Craig was very responsive and accommodating to my schedule. He first came out to measure the home, provided a quote, and facilitated a color consultation from Patricia, his wife and business partner. She helped me decide on neutral colors for the home, including the use of accent walls. She took my current and future needs into consideration and was very attentive to all my verbal and non-verbal cues regarding my conservative paint color preferences. Craig was willing to use any brand of paint I preferred, but did provide recommendations that already matched my paint preferences.
On the day of the scheduled paint job, a crew of approximately 8 painters arrived promptly and began working on our home. We spent the weekend before organizing some of our mess, or consolidating items to the center of each room, but I am confident that the crew would have helped us with anything we did not prep ahead of time. They moved furniture, removed paintings, mirrors, and wall decorations with ease, and covered all of our belongings for protection. The crew worked diligently and professionally throughout the day. They did tape some baseboards and wainscoting, but I was incredibly surprised and impressed with the steady hand of the painters that did not require tape. I cannot rave more about the quality of work that they performed in one day. They filled holes and sanded and painted for approximately 10-11 hours. At the end of the day, we only had 2 bathrooms left to be painted, though they had been prepped by the paint team. They came back at a time convenient for us a few days later and finished the job with 2 crew members. All team members were very professional and pleasant. They fixed cracks in our ceiling, and covered water leakage marks on two other bedroom ceilings. Craig and/or the project manager, Kyle, came to my townhouse on both days of painting and performed quality control checks and to see if there were any concerns.
I was very pleased with every step of the process from beginning to end. I mentioned my Angie's List membership on the day of the paint job, completely forgetting to mention it early on when we were given a price quote. Craig happily obliged to honor the discount associated with an Angie's List membership, solidifying my appreciation for his business. He and his team aim to please and I highly recommend his business to friends, family, and neighbors.

"They did a decent job at staining my deck, but they missed a few spots. I asked the owner to address this issue and he said he would send his folks to take care those spots. Unfortunately, no one ever came do those touch ups. Overall, follow up was poor and non-existent based on my experience. This is an update on my previous review. The owner reached out to me and apologized for the delay in the touch up work and promptly came back and completed the touch ups personally. Overall, I'm happy with how my deck looks. Based on this and my interaction with the owner, I do believe that this company cares about its customers' satisfaction and that my initial experience may have been an exception rather than the norm."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

Yes, professionals offer slip-resistant options for added workplace safety.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.
