"STRAIGHT EDGE PAINTING - CAN'T SAY ENOUGH POSITIVE THINGS We recently engaged Straight Edge Painting owned by Wes Reese to paint the entire interior of our house, including all the ceilings and wood trim work. Until now I doubted anyone could paint to my own expectations.. Wes sent in a team of the most professional, careful, pleasant, respectful and well-trained painters you could ever ask for. They start by covering all the floors by taping down heavy-duty brown kraft paper. Then they patch every imperfection in the ceiling and walls that they find. They even shine flashlights on the ceiling and walls to find these imperfections. Then they scrub down the walls with a giant dry mop-head. Next, they clean the baseboard moldings with a brush. Then, they start by priming all the surfaces first. Then they apply 2 coats of the highest quality paint. Wes is always accessible. They are fully insured and offer a very strong warranty. I COULD NOT IMAGINE THAT YOU CAN FIND A BETTER PAINTER."

"Kenia and crew did an amazing job for a beyond fair price on my accent walls. They showed up on time, took care with the home as they setup to paint, and followed through on all commitments. This excellent experience led to my asking Kenia to estimate the price of painting the whole house from ceiling to baseboards including patch repair - the price was right and work commenced within the week. Once again the crew came in and did a top notch job in an efficient manner - even patching a ceiling crack we didn't know was there until the 1st coat of paint went on at no extra charge. They installed wainscot trim, painted some pieces of furniture that needed to be refreshed. Totally amazing work and very professional experience. They've now been hired to re-paint my kitchen cabinets to complete my house overhaul. I feel very fortunate to have found Kenia/Carolina Painting & Remodeling LLC through Angi and have already referred friends that have contracted the team to have work completed that are also fully satisfied with the quality of work. You'd be very lucky indeed to have this wonderful team take care of your painting and general remodeling needs :) ."

"When I met Chris I felt up front that he was the right guy for my job. He had pictures of work he previously worked on. ( just beautiful ) I needed my 10x10 deck stained and sealed. With the 14 steps and balusters that run the length of both areas and set’s pretty high up on large wood deck beams. I hired Chris he got started early morning and finished the job by 3pm same day. I’m very pleased with his work he’s very qualified to take on any job very knowledgeable in his field of work and is very professional he will show up in a vehicle with his logo on it and a shirt logo to. He takes care of your property like he does his own. I highly recommend Chris for your painting needs indoor or outdoor. He’s very trustworthy."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.

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.

You can weather a new wood fence by applying vinegar with steel wool as a way to fade some of the coloring. You may also find it easier to stain your entire fence a new color instead of trying to get newer fence boards to match an older one.

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.
