"I recently hired Ethan and his team to paint my house and stain my deck, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, they were incredibly professional and easy to work with. Communication throughout the entire process was excellent. They were responsive, clear about timelines, and kept me updated every step of the way. It really made the whole project feel smooth and stress-free. The crew was also extremely polite and respectful while working at my home. They took great care with everything, and their attention to cleanliness really stood out. At the end of each day, the area was neat and organized, which I really appreciated. Most importantly, the quality of the work speaks for itself. The house looks fantastic and the deck staining turned out great. It’s clear they take pride in what they do. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for painting or staining work. Professional, communicative, clean, and courteous — a great team all around."

"They painted a shipment container. First, they power washed the shipment container and they painted it for me, and they clean up after themselves. They show up on time, professional, orderly, did a thorough job, clean up after themselves and worked with me in an efficient manner."

"TruePro Home Painters did an excellent job painting the interior of my home. He was very professional from our initial meeting to discuss the project through to completion. Chris communicated clearly about scheduling and was able to complete the work in a timely manner even though it was a one man operation. He took great care prepping each room and applying the paint smoothly and evenly. The end result looks beautiful the walls have an even coat of paint and the color match is spot on. Chris took care to fully protect floors, windows and fixtures as well. He cleaned up meticulously after finishing each room. I was really impressed by Chris' painting skills and ability to tackle this project solo. His work is high quality and he stands behind it. I would gladly recommend Chris for any interior painting needs. His prices were very fair for the great work. I will definitely hire him again in the future."

"GS and Jose were incredible. They helped make sure my painting project was finished in a very fast and thorough manner while I dealt with my back injury. I was so impressed with the end result and plan to call them back in the Winter for my basement. Highly recommend Lake Michigan Painting."

Painting questions, answered by experts

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

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. 

Staining a wood fence isn’t guaranteed to prevent warping, but it can help. Plus, it’s a beginner-friendly DIY project that you can finish in a few days. If you want to try it, you’ll start by stripping it of any old stain or paint, then sanding it. After that, you’ll clean it and spot-treat any mold or mildew. When it’s dry, you can apply the stain.

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.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths
