"Paz painting was excellent. They did a great job with some repairs to rotten fascia boards and then painted our entire two story house. Quality of the job was very good and Paz painting was very professional and easy to work with. Price was also very competitive as compared with two other quotes we got."

"Our experience with Cruz Home painting couldn’t have been better. Jesus Cruz was prompt, and pleasant to work with every step of the way. He provided a detailed job description at the outset, and went out of his way to provide stain samples and advice before starting the work. He is a perfectionist, and paid attention to the smallest details along the way. We will definitely hire him again for our next project."

"Clee is very responsive, professional and friendly. The crew showed up on time and were professional while in our homes. Price was a little higher than other companies but we picked quality and professionalism over our budget. I was really hesitant on having the cabinets painted, they were an antique washed color which made the kitchen feel dark and we had the cabinets painted a white creamy color which brightened the kitchen and the paint job was so well done that you’d never think they were painted."

"I wouldn't use them again because - I mean, in the end they did a fine job but that's because at the end when they said they were done, I walked around with them and I pointed out things that weren't ... like there were some areas that they didn't caulk and then there was a place where I could tell there was only one coat and there should've been two.  So I felt kind of like ... I mean I really had to look everything over and I'd rather just have somebody who just does a straight up good job, you know?  I was thinking I'm not sure that I'm even like finding everything that somebody who really knows about painting and caulking would catch.  Not that it's really complicated, but still, because some of it was outside.  I was thinking, did you caulk above the windows or ... but where I saw that the caulk was left undone was easy for me to see and it was interior and everything. But I can't give a bad review because I can't say oh, something wasn't done because I don't know for sure.  I would've felt better if I had walked around and didn't have anything to say. "

"I was in need of immediate painting for a new office I was moving into. The Express team not only responded quickly to my request on Angi but came out the very next day to give me an estimate and then began the work within a couple of days! Painting was well done and my office respected—cleaned up as if they’d never been there. Highly recommend Express Yourself Paint."

"Randy and son, Chris, arrived on time, or slightly earlier, daily, and this was highly appreciated. They prepped the kitchen, kitchen island, butler pantry, and master bathroom cabinet areas, primed and painted the wood surfaces in the colors we chose. All was completed to our total satisfaction, and we highly recommend their services!"

"Diego gave helpful advice on a whole house painting(including tin roof and decking). He and his crew spent significant time pressure washing and preparing all surfaces for paint and stain. They came promptly as the weather permitted. He and his crew were meticulous and expert in their painting. They left no mess behind on any day of work. It was fun to see the progress and we feel like we have a new home and deck and are thrilled with it. It was a pleasure to work with Diego and his crew."

Painting questions, answered by experts

100% acrylic latex lasts the longest for most siding. Premium 100% acrylic products carry lifetime warranties against peeling, blistering, and fading. Match the grade to your surface and climate for the best lifespan.

You can use latex or acrylic paint outdoors. Although acrylic paint tends to last longer outside, it also costs more, so if you’re painting the outside of your house, for instance, latex paint is often a go-to option. However, acrylic will be your best choice if you want to spend some extra money for added durability.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

On most untreated wood fences, there is no need to sand before treating. You typically only need to sand if there’s an old coat of paint or stain on your fence. If you do need to sand off a previous paint or protective coating (like an old stain or sealant), use medium-grit sandpaper.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.
