"Found and repaired multiple issues in my home. It was great to have one person who could take care if everything. Painting, scraping ceilings, laying vinyl flooring. Replacing deck boards, cement work in 3 different applications, replaced thresholds on garage doors and repaired the repair on cracked shifting cement above the subgarage. Made my deck safe. Replaced some missing drywall in the basement. Great carpenter. Easy to talk to, consistently shows up and leaves things neat. Gets it done. Found some rot under my siding and came up with a good plan to seal it up and make it structurally sound again. Found during prep for exterior painting."

"Hired this company to help update my kitchen cabinets. The owner was very good to work with, very accommodating and the crew were amazing! They kept the areas around them cleaned up and respected the home. The cabinets turned out incredible. Very nice finish, they look like glass they are so perfect! Added 2 rooms to be painted which both were done timely and again clean and professional and last had them update our wood fence. Needed to be pressure washed, stained and sealed. Again a great job done. No complaints. Would highly recommend this company for any needs you are needing around the house. Hard to find professional, clean and all around good people and this company had it all! Will be using them again in the future."

"Initial consultation was with Amy and my husband. Since I wasn't sure
what styles were discussed in my absence, she quickly emailed me
pictures of a few different options. I made multiple changes before the
install date, and Amy took it all in stride. When it came to the first
day of work, the demo guy came out to check out our existing chain link.
Apparently it was more work than he thought and had to reschedule to
come out a couple days later when he had more time. Due to a
miscommunication and misunderstanding (we said we would take care of
disposal of the old fence and they thought it meant we would entirely
remove and dispose the old fence and then I didn't read the quote well
enough to notice that they did not include removal in the price), it
took a little bit longer than expected. No big deal, that's on us to
more clearly communicate and read better!
Once the old fence was
taken out and the posts were set, the fence was up in little more than a
day. The guy who put it up was SO fast, he motivated the other
contractor we had building our deck. Wish I would have known that
Artistic could have built that, too, because we would have loved to have
that up in two days as well!
Any issues or concerns I had in the
process, I just called and talked to Mary in the office and she sorted
everything out. I would highly recommend this company to anyone and
everyone. All of our neighbors have come over to tell us how much they
love our fence!

"Tom came out to bid on our project on May 22, 2014.  He was very thorough in explaining how much and what type of paint would be needed.  He was reasonable and fair with his estimate.  He came to our home on June 20th and prepped the entire area first. He asked us to come into the home to see the prep work.  Once we approved, he then started spraying all the ceilings.  As he was working, he asked us to come back in to see the difference between the newly painted area and the old.  Remarkable difference.  He sprayed the textured ceilings twice with primer/paint.  He did a nice job cleaning up.  Very personable and nice to work with.  I would recommend him.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

An exterior paint job typically lasts between 5 and 10 years, though this can range from 3 to 17 years depending on several factors. The longevity is influenced by the quality of the paint and primer, the quality of the application, the local climate, and the type of surface being painted. For example, paint on wood siding may need to be redone every 3 to 7 years, while painted brick can last up to 17 years. Aluminum siding often needs repainting every 5 years.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

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.

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.

Essential tools include brushes or rollers, drop cloths, sandpaper or power sanders, and appropriate cleaning supplies. Quality materials ensure long-lasting results.
