"This is my first time leaving a review on this site but I just have to put in a good word for this painting team. My husband and I were very pleased with the perfect paint job they did for our nursery. We have high standards and they met them and were so wonderful to work with too. We felt the cost for their service was very reasonable and they were quick to get it done. I have already told my neighbors about them as they have painting that needs to be done. I would hire Dave, Ian, and Lynne again for further painting needs."

"We have hired Brothers Painting for several projects including interior paint on our condominium units, ceiling fan installation, outdoor paint and staining of the exterior deck and retaining wall at the condominium property. They also repaired a concrete walkway, rebuilt an outdoor stairway, repaired and replaced wood on our outdoor deck at home and applied protective stain. They also cleared a perimeter of brush from our property. Jose is a reliable honest man with a lovely family. We will continue to support this small business and highly recommend for your projects as well. Colleen Ivie"

Painting questions, answered by experts

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

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. 

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Regular staining, sealing, and inspecting for rot or insect damage prolongs fence lifespan.

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.
