INSTALLING WALLPAPER AND PAINTING YOUR HOME IS OUR PASSION. As an owner/operator with a small crew I have Over 30 years in the trade has which gives me the unique ability to enhance the Beauty of your home with expertise! Using the right materials and equipment for the job sets us up for success. We offer interior and exterior painting. Large and small jobs are welcome! Wallpaper installation and removal is our thing! We can paint one room for you or enamel a kitchen or paint a ceiling. Let us know what you need and I bet we can do it!

"Seven or eight years ago a storm rolled through the western suburbs of Minneapolis doing $40,000 to $50,000 in damage to our home. We hired our usual contractor to repair the damage. He did a good job on everything except our beautiful cedar deck on the south side of our home. When the contractor completed his work, our deck looked like it was covered in mud. The deck’s previous splendor became a distant memory and I resisted spending time on the deck. Nearly three years ago our house was in need of repainting. I stopped at our local paint store (the stores all the pros go to) and asked an acquaintance who has worked at the store for many years if he could recommend a painter to do high quality work. He gave me three names and I contacted all three. David DuBose the owner of Cutting Edge, Inc. came to look at the project on a Sunday afternoon. I told him straight-up that if he wasn’t confident that he could return the deck to its nearly original condition he should not take the job. He took one plank and told me he would get back to me. A short time later he told me he was confident he could bring the deck back to near original condition. At my request, Dave gave me a price to repaint the house, and a separate estimate to refinish the deck. I gave him both jobs. Dave contacted me about two weeks prior to the time he felt confident he could begin the project. As promised, Dave and his crew arrived right on schedule, ready to work. One or two members began preparing the deck and the remaining crew went to work preparing the house for paint. The house was completed very quickly and Cutting Edge did a GREAT job. The deck was completed a few days later and I could not have been more pleased. But the true test was time. Now, nearly three years later, the deck still looks brand new and you can’t get me off the deck. Just last week (03/2022), Cutting Edge completed a maintenance project on my home’s interior. Enamel trim (20 years old) had cracked and stained cabinets were showing wear and tear. A week of concentrated work by one of the Cutting Edge, finish guys and everything looked nearly as good new. I can’t say Cutting Edge is the least expensive in the short term. But I sincerely believe that quality work and quality products make Cutting Edge the best long-term value for the money. I have managed and developed a significant portfolio commercial property professionally since 1979. I highly recommend David DuBose and his Cutting Edge crew without any reservation."

"We have a beautiful outcome but we did 75% of the sanding of the deck and 25% of the patio furniture to meet our quality standards. We were told they were meeting industry standards which we did not believe. There were many late arrivals and even two no shows on the part of his subcontractor. The owner was responsive to our complaints but when he saw we could make the deck wood look new by dedicating time to sanding he did concede we were right. Based on the age alone at first we did not feel he agreed it could be achieved. After his subcontractor left we would go over his sanding even of the patio furniture. We were told all boards that needed replacement were part of the estimate but we had to find them, usually after our finger would pop through in order for him to finally change out all of the rotting boards. He took before and after pics, telling us after the fact for advertising, they are not accurate of his subcontractors work. And despite putting in a combined 32 hours of hard labor sanding, as the owners, we were offered no discount for how this all played out. His subcontractor did two things well, power wash and staining. But he used no eye for detail like we had been promised ahead of time. We will consider hiring the owner for future jobs if he does the work himself but never again with a subcontractor."

"Ron was so easy to work with. He was super responsive and easy to get in touch with. He and his partner did such a great job painting a majority of my interior very quickly so we could get our house ready for sale. We initially booked this job for later, but he was able to move things around and help us out sooner when we found out we needed to list our house soon. Would totally use them again for another project!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

If you’re deciding between limewash versus whitewash, know that both have a chalky matte appearance. Limewash is made from lime, water, and sometimes pigment, while whitewash consists of lime, water, white chalk, and binders (though you can get a similar look with watered-down white paint). Whitewash has fewer options for color customization, and it sits on surfaces instead of being absorbed into them, which can trap moisture. Whitewashing costs less—about $1.40 to $4.20 per square foot.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

You should seal your deck every one to two years, but you’ll also need to clean and repair your wood deck throughout the seasons. You may want to hire a local house cleaning service to sweep and clean the deck thoroughly. These cleaning services cost around $50 per hour.

Inspect your deck at least once a year, and if you notice any damage or rot, expect to spend about $10 to $50 for simple DIY fixes or about $2,000 for professional repairs on more extensive damage.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don’t want paint that’ll show every mark like matte, but you don’t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.
