"I contacted Asheville Paint and Decorating owner, Bobby Brown, the end of May. He came to the house and we discussed what needed to be done. He told me the brand of paint to use when we selected our colors and suggested that we get samples and paint a portion of the wall to be sure of the color was what we wanted and explained how colors could look different at different times of day in different lights. Several days later, he sent me a contract which specified the work to be done and the cost.
I told him we were not locked into a specific time frame to get the work done. (Of course, you should set up a work schedule before you sign a contract if time is a factor for you.) Later in the summer we had family coming unexpectedly and we asked him if he could possibly get the guest bathroom done before they came. He very graciously came and got that part of the job done. Also, I decided to have more work done that we had originally contracted and he was agreeable to making the changes. He completed the work in late November.
Mr. Brown came when he said he would. He and his crew were very easy to work with. They moved all the furniture into the center of the rooms where they worked and covered it with tarps or plastic wrap to keep everything clean. We did not have to do anything except remove any fragile items. They cleaned up after painting and put the furniture back before they left in the evenings each day so that we were able to live in our house while they worked.
I would highly recommend Asheville Paint and Decorating for residential or commercial work.

"R7 Painting did a fantastic job painting my house and staining my deck! They power washed everything first, then prepped in advance of painting. My deck had a few areas that needed to be replaced, so they did that as well. The workmen showed up promptly each morning and cleaned up each evening. All in all they did an A+ job. I have gotten many compliments on my newly painted house and have recommended them on our neighborhood website."

"Custom Painting did an outstanding job of staining our 30 year old buildings. Additionally many or our homeowners have used Custom Painting to paint their interiors. They always showed up as scheduled and where very professional when dealing with the association or homeowners. When we had a couple of issues that weren't noticed until months later, they came out quickly to rememdy the situation. I would highly recommend Custom Painting and will continue to use them for any of our painting/staining needs."

"We were very pleased with the excellent and professional job re-staining our log home. Dario and his crew were diligent, reliable, punctual and very easy to work with. They were extremely hard working and finished our house before a visit by our relatives. We love the way our log home looks now !! We would highly recommend them to friends and neighbors and definitely use them again."

"My name is Darren Gaines and i got to say hands down Rueda Construction is the best i didn't know who to call but i wanted one person who could do all the work not multiple people and Rueda Construction meet all my needs. A tree hit the corner of my house when Helen hit so miguel the owner came out looked at the damaged and him and his team or i can say his family because its a family business. They really know what they doing they came on time and worked hard my house look like it wasn't even damaged after they finished. Im having him come back to build a roof on the top of deck and other things because they do some many things. I dont know about you guys but if you can find somebody you trust and can do all the work you need stick with them thats why im sticking with Miguel and RUEDA CONSTRUCTION you want be sorry."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat. 

You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or refinishing the deck altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.

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.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.
