"We had previously hired Paz Painting to remove popcorn from the ceilings in 2 rooms and hired his crew again to do the same in our dining and living rooms, an entryway and the upstairs stairwell ceiling. They also painted several rooms. They did a great job in both regards and did a nice job of cleaning up when done. Narciso is easy to work with and I would definitely hire his company again."

"I would highly recommend Xtreme Painting LLC to anyone. I found them on Angi and they responded back to me immediately. The owner, Juan came out that same weekend to give an estimate and the job was scheduled within two weeks. Juan’s crew came out and painted my parents bedroom with a tray ceiling & their bathroom. They did an excellent job..ceilings, walls, trim and caulked and cleaned everything when they were done. It looks beautiful! And Mariela was pleasant to speak with too! My parents are so happy that they are going to have them paint the rest of their house. Thank you Xtreme Painting LLC"

"Juan and crew were very professional, early and completed the work even better than expected. The exterior paint job was exceptional. Everything was cleaned up at the end of the day. I will have them back for additional paint jobs."

"KK Custom Painting had been doing work for us for years. Theyâ  ve handled interior paint and drywall, exterior trim painting and repair and deck painting and stain. The work is always perfect. When the work is done the house is as neat as when they started. I trust them without any hesitation to work on my home."

"Michelle came out and did my quote, she was very thorough and made sure the quality was up to my standard! She checked behind the contractors so that eased my mind (I’ve had painting where the contractors messed up my walls and I had to hire a WHOLE other company just to fix it.) Also loved how they made sure the paint didn’t get in places they shouldn’t be. Need to get my porch painted next, so listen for my call !!"

"Miguel was so great to work with. He replaced all of our wood siding with Hardie Plank and then painted our home. He and his crew worked so quickly and did an incredible job! Miguel was so kind, well-priced, and did quality work. We will definitely use him again in the future and will be recommending him to others!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

If you have the time and the budget, we strongly recommend staining your fence, especially if it's looking a bit tired or hasn't been treated recently. While you may not see the same return on investment (ROI) as you would with a project like a kitchen remodel, staining a fence is one of the best ways to add a facelift to your property—a new fence stain adds serious curb appeal to your home. 

Yes, you can paint galvanized chain link, but the process is a bit more difficult as it requires additional prep work. Before applying the primer and paint, you must remove the original coating from the metal, which can be time-consuming. If the original coating is not removed, the primer and paint will not bond properly and cause peeling over time.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

Regular cleaning, touch-ups for small defects, and resealing or repainting every 2-3 years help to maintain a vibrant appearance and protection.
