"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

You can only change your neighbor's fence with their permission. A neighbor's fence is their property, and altering it without their consent could constitute trespassing or property damage, which may have legal consequences. If you have concerns or disagreements about your neighbor's fence, communicate with them openly and try to reach a mutually agreeable solution. If you believe the fence violates local zoning laws or property regulations, consult with local authorities or seek legal advice to address the issue through proper channels. 

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

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.

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.
