"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."

"The guys were very polite, respectful and dedicated to their work. They protected everything on the exterior of the home. This included new deck, railings, new concrete patio, roof shingles, windows, doors, air conditioning unit. We had board and baton installed on the front of the home, we are very pleased with the work they performed on the siding. I would highly recommend this company and their workers."

"I needed wallpaper removed and a house painted to put on the market for sale as quickly as possible. Based on all of the positive online reviews of Color World Painting of North Charlotte I contacted Derek to handle the job. I felt his pricing was very reasonable and his crew did an excellent job working with me on my timeline. The home looks beautiful and is ready to market. I am adding my 5 star review to the many others online. Thank you Derek and crew for a job well done."

"The Calix team was fantastic. Their services are prompt, thorough, and flexible as our interests changed. We painted the entire exterior of our home, which is a major change that we were nervous about. Lesther checked in with every step to make sure we were satisfied with the work and worked with us as we oscillated on the final choice for the trim and doors. We unexpectedly needed some repairs to the wood under our gutters and he helped us to get that repaired as well. Despite of some rain and us choosing the last colors at the 11th hour, they finished the work in four days. Lesther ensures his work is high quality and his customers are satisfied, in addition to just being a nice guy to work with. You can tell he is passionate and meticulous about his work."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years

For the longest-lasting exterior paint, consider acrylic or enamel (oil-based) paints. Acrylic paints, including acrylic latex and acrylic enamel, are known for withstanding harsh weather and sun exposure. Enamel-based paints are also one of the most durable options available. While latex paint is common, it typically has a shorter lifespan than acrylic or oil-based options. The paint's finish also affects its durability; a higher gloss finish is generally more durable. For resistance to moisture and cracking, matte and satin finishes can be effective, while a high-gloss acrylic or oil-based paint offers a combination of maximum longevity and durability.

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

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.
