"I was doing a kitchen remodel and desperately wanted to paint my cabinets, wanted to diy, but ultimately lacked the time and space. I hired Jake and he was professional and prompt, and very respectful of my space as the whole project was a live in remodel. He's now my go to painter!"

"We hired Rein Green Painting to repair and paint the exterior of a seasonal cottage in addition to replacing and sealing the lattice work at the base of the house - they've been very pleasant to work with and quite responsive - jumping on the project and completing it quickly - and they've done a great job, I recommend."

"Jon Sawyer and his crew, Jaime (Jamie?) in particular came to the rescue and painted three areas inside my home. They were punctual, fast, very professional and the job was done superbly. Couldn't be happier! I will definitely call them for my future projects. Highly recommend them!"

"Jon and his crew did a great job on our house. We were trying to get our new house painted before we moved in and Jon worked with us to achieve that goal. In addition to the painting, the crew took on several additional projects to prep for painting, including some light carpentry work. Jon was also flexible in working with other contractors who were doing work in the house at the same time, often complicating the painting work. After we moved in, Jon returned several times to touch up the paint and to ensure that we were completely satisfied with the work. Although we're new to the area. We'll look forward to working with Jon on any of our future painting projects and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional, reasonably priced painter."

"Shawn cleaned my house gutters and repaired seams that needed attention. There were trim boards adjacent to the gutters that were showing signs of wear and they were caulked. They will be ready for paint in the spring. Shawn is pleasant. Knowledgeable, and showed up when he said he would."

Painting questions, answered by experts

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.

A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again. 

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage.
