"Donin and Dorian did a wonderful painting job! Everything--floors, carpets, furniture, etc.--was covered completely during the process, and the finished product was lovely. One would never know that there had ever been damage to the ceilings from Hurricane Florence. DLA Painting is the best. I would highly recommend them to anyone."

"If you are looking for quality service with great attention to detail for a more than fair price, look no further. Steve was amazing. The quality of his work speaks volumes about his experience, and his pricing about his character. My wife and I hired Steve to do an entire interior job, which, by the end, we were blown away. Our home wasnt on the market for a week before it was rented, thanks to Steve! Will always use this business for future painting needs."

"I donâ t write many reviews but I have to for Juan. I needed my whole interior painted due to flooding. He came over to look at the scope of the job and sent me an estimate that I thought was good. I had several estimates from different companies and I went with the lowest. I was a little nervous because his company had no web presence. But he saw some issues with previous work right away and I felt comfortable with him. I am so happy with my decision. His crew was meticulous in covering my new flooring with paper, repainting previously painted doors that werenâ t done well. I appreciated Juanâ s assistance with paint selection. He is the kindest man! His entire crew is very friendly. My neighbor commented on that! They arrived on time and worked the entire day (my other neighbor commented on that!). Some days there were six workers and all were friendly and nice. When the job was finished, Juan offered to help me put everything where it belonged! They swept and washed the floors! My house is absolutely beautiful now and I canâ t thank him enough. They were so fast that they finished before my money arrived and Juan had to wait a couple days before he was paid in full. He was so kind about it. Everyone who comes in to see the work is awed. And even better, my house is finally livable and beautiful as well."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

Maintain your wattle fence by inspecting it at least twice per year for loose weaving and degrading branches. Replace any seriously degraded sections, ensure water drains properly around the posts, and trim any sprouting branches if you used green wood. If you notice the weave loosening, you can often tighten it by gently pushing down on the top branches. You can also apply a natural wood preservative every two to three years to extend the fence's lifespan.

You should stain both sides of your fence to get the full benefits. Fences often fall along property lines, so you may want to save a buck by leaving your neighbor’s side in the dust. If you do that, all you get is a slightly better view. Moisture and UV rays can still sneak in through the side that’s unpainted or worn down and damage your fence. Rot and rust will spread, even if you can’t see it from your side of the lawn.

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.

A dry lawn is easier to edge than a wet one. When your ground is wet, your blades will likely clump together, making a seemingly even cut while wet, but an uneven disaster when dried. Also, a wet lawn can impact your blade's performance and cause mud to kick up, resulting in a messy finish.
