"Tyler did an amazing job repainting our cabinets. We had a dark finish prior, and wanted the cabinets white to brighten up our kitchen. Tyler was quick, efficient, and we ended up with a great finished product. As someone who has seen other projects in Tyler's portfolio, I'd recommend Tyler not only for your interior painting, but exterior as well."

"They started 8/17. I asked for everything to be white, with an accent wall in 3 rooms all of a gray. Agreed on a pop of dark gray also on a ledge and a small wall. The 18th I came home to find, the laundry room, sm hallway, kitchen and 3 of the livingroom walls all gray. I called Chris he got so riled up and said I never said no such thing, called me a liar multiple times, over talked when I tried speaking. I said I would be calling Angi, he went all kinds of ugly. He said no your not this is my livelihood. He said he'd make a report the following morning, call my how, and bring the police. After he kept over talking me, I hung up on him. He then texted me. We left it as for him to fix the issue would cost me an extra 750.00. I still have his texts. That Thursday I came home to a empty 5 gallon of paint and a empty gallon of paint in my garage, a light fixture don't put back up. (I have cathedral ceilings ugh."

"We will hire him again! It's refreshing to find a professional who responds quickly, and does a superb job. He removed, repaired our rotted soffit and removed and repaired a facia board. Painted both and found the problem related to both issues. We will use him again !"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

It’s a good idea to sand your porch before painting. This will remove loose or chipped paint and debris, and give you a cleaner surface so that your new paint goes on smoothly. But if the existing surface is in good condition, it’s not necessary to sand your porch before you paint.

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.

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.

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.
