"Don and his crew just recently finished the exterior stain project on our home. Our specific thoughts: 1. Pricing was fair and Don billed exactly as he said he would; no surprises. 2. Incredibly competent, professional, and courteous crew. We had a great deal of "high" work (3 stories) and they accomplished this amazingly. Don played the point and regularly communicated with my wife and me. 3. In addition to staining, we had a great deal of cedar trim damaged by woodpeckers--Don and crew replaced the damaged trim and did an excellent job. 4. Don and crew showed up when they said they would, and finished on time--all positives. In conclusion, my wife and I would highly recommend Painting by Don if you need exterior work done. They are pros."

"We had Precision Painting stain the exterior cedar on our home and paint exterior doors. We were very happy with his work. We're going to have him do some interior painting this winter."

"I hired a company highly reviewed on this site that walked off the job site prior to even starting, claiming he didn't charge enough as we negotiated the price. I waited 2 weeks to start this job and now I had no contractor. I called Dave Taylor early on a Monday afternoon for a quote, he showed up later that day. Monday evening he called and asked if he could start on Tuesday morning (!), when the other guy was to actually start painting. Dave and John showed up at 8:30 and the job was completed by noon on Wednesday. Taylor'd Painting was to start a 2 week job and he literally squeezed us in. I didn't feel I was in a position to negotiate a price, but we did I think we're both quite satisfied. I can't say enough about these guys, hire them today!"

"Adam's painting coated my ceilings, including the cathedral ceiling, and stairways. They look brand new. The crew carefully moved everything. Covered what could not be moved. Even vacuumed before they put all the furniture back. Chris is very easy to work with. He even made recommendations to save me money. The crew is very pleasant, really hard working. And all for a good price. I don't know what else you could ask for."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Various kinds of substances and deck preservatives act as protective coatings for wood to prevent rot, which is caused by water getting into the wood and creating cracks and splits. Stains, paints, and sealants are the three best options to protect your wood, but there are also oils, varnishes, and waxes available. You’ll need to reapply sealant at least once per year, and you should inspect your wood deck regularly to look for signs of damage or general wear and tear.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

For the longest-lasting exterior paint, consider acrylic or enamel (oil-based) paints. Acrylic paints, including acrylic latex and acrylic enamel, are known for withstanding harsh weather and sun exposure. Enamel-based paints are also one of the most durable options available. While latex paint is common, it typically has a shorter lifespan than acrylic or oil-based options. The paint's finish also affects its durability; a higher gloss finish is generally more durable. For resistance to moisture and cracking, matte and satin finishes can be effective, while a high-gloss acrylic or oil-based paint offers a combination of maximum longevity and durability.

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