"Excellent work! Fast and friendly service.. Affordable. Trustworthy. Scraped old paint and repaired exterior of my house and gave my house a major face-lift! Sheetrock repair, mudding and painting a couple rooms inside. I am now excited to have people over! Thank you so much!"
"The guys are very nice and professional. They installed a door for me and also replaced my old deck. They did a very good job and the work was completed in a timely manner. I would highly recommend this company and would hire them again if i ever need any more work done."
"The owner came out the same day I called him. He was a great guy, very knowledgeable, asked a few questions, and said he would get back with me about a price. That evening I received a fair and very reasonable quote - so I hired him. He indicated it would be next week sometime; however, four days later I received a text on Sunday morning saying his painter was rained out of his job and asked if he could paint today. Needless to say, I am very pleased and would recommend 'A Good Painter' to anyone looking for great service."
"They're not quite done yet and I am so pleased. Kris and his worker arrived on time ready to do the job and I am 150% pleased. I'm looking forward to see it when complete. I'll send some pics"
"There is no category to put Michael in. We hired him to paint and he wound up doing it all. Interior and exterior renovations and painting. He has a great eye for colors and even put hardy plank over the old stucco on our house. He made a column out of wood and stained it a beautiful dark, rich color to complement the creamed colored hardy plank. He customized our 8 x 24 pantry with wooden stained shelving, cabinets and closets. In the rest of the house he put shiplap on a couple of feature walls and painted the whole house. Very professional and reasonably priced. I will hire him again in the future for ANY other projects."

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.
You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.
You’ll want to avoid excessively hot or humid conditions, so it’s best to apply your stain in late spring to early fall. It's also important to watch the weather forecast and aim for days when there isn’t rain expected for at least three days. For new decks, allow the wood to season beforehand for at least four to eight weeks.
Painting a damaged pool deck is not recommended if the substrate is crumbling, cracking, spalling, or otherwise actively deteriorating. Continuing deterioration will result in the paint also delaminating or flaking off the damaged surface. Minor damage such as chips or hairline cracks that are not actively deteriorating can often be repaired enough to paint over. A damaged pool deck with a lot of cracking and deterioration should be replaced for best results.
Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.
