"Zach and his team painted the entire interior of my house and removed the pop corn ceiling! The work that was completed was fantastic and now my new home looks like a completely new place. I loved the promptness of Premium Painting and will definitely hire them again for future projects!"

Customers say: True professional

"I wanted to whitewash a 17' tall brown brick fireplace and paint an accent color on the wall surrounding the fireplace. I was very anxious to find the right craftsman and took a lot of bids - more than 6! I hired Paul Marcus - who was not the cheapest by a long shot - for several reasons. Not only because he seemed to know exactly what he was talking about and what the project would entail, but also because he was patient in answering my questions and explaining how he would do it. Most importantly, however -- he was the only bidder who discussed in some detail what would be involved in prepping the space and cleaning the brick before the whitewashing could begin. He discussed the type of brick we had ("soft" here, hard there) and how these differences would affect the way the whitewash would be applied and absorbed. He listened patiently to what I was hoping to accomplish, answered my questions and looked carefully at pictures I had found on the internet that best matched my vision. He and his employee, David, were both impressively professional from start to finish and very careful about my home and furnishings. When they began the actual whitewash process they made sure I was home and kept adjusting and working at the finish until I was 100% satisfied. The finished product matches my vision exactly and I am absolutely thrilled. It was worth every penny and I consider it an extremely valuable investment. I really wish I could post pictures because the change is dramatic and the finished product is just beautiful. Thank you, Home Advisor, for finding me Paul Marcus Painting. You found me what Angies List could not."

"From the start the paint company was responsive, friendly and service oriented. Nathan followed up a few weeks before the job, stopped by for paint colors and was flexible when rooms to be painted changed. They were fast to complete and the rooms look great. Photos from Nathan as they were progressing to let me know as we were not in town. Would use The Paint Company again in an instant."

"If I could give Five Star Painting of St. Charles more than five stars, I certainly would. I had never had professional painting done before, so I was a little nervous—but not anymore. Every step of the project, from working with Justin and picking the colors to completing the job, went so smoothly. Every room looks absolutely beautiful. The paint crew worked quickly and did a wonderful job. They also cleaned up and helped me move everything back into place. I will definitely be using this company again for the remaining rooms in my house."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can help your wood fence last 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You’ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

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.
