"I selected AAX Painting for my project. I needed my split level house located near Sylva NC exterior painted. This consisted of pressure washing and two coats of paint. I selected AAX Painting because of their reasonable quote and good reviews left by other customers. After selecting and talking with them I found they used Sherwin Williams paint which is quality product. They were professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. They dealt with some unique problems since they were from Asheville Hendersonville area which had massive flooding problems prior to starting the project in Sylva. They have done a great job and I'm very pleased with the end results and would hire them again if I have any future projects. Thanks, Bob Russ"

"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 had the house chemically washed prior to listing it for sale. Good customer service provided by Ashley who kept us informed of any change in schedule. They worked for several hours and it looked to be complete. Fortunately I noticed that one deck had not been done before they left. They completed that upon request. The work they did made it look as if it had just been painted. Nice Work!"

"From the moment I called to inquire about getting a quote for staining our cabin and building a fence, Derek was excellent in communicating, came over quickly and met with us and provided a written quote the same day! We gave him a deadline of a finished job and he exceeded that deadline by two weeks! Very professional work crews and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome of the work done! I even added a rock landscape project and they did that too with no hesitation! Great experience and would highly recommend Derek to anyone!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

If you paint a vinyl fence, it will likely stick to it for only a brief amount of time. This is because vinyl is not a porous material, so it's not an ideal surface for holding paint. Initially, paint will stick to your fence, but it will eventually peel off. Applying primer before painting your vinyl fence will help paint last longer. Certain primers are well-suited to vinyl, which means you can paint vinyl siding with the proper preparation.

Overall costs depend on the fence height and length, prep work required, and labor if hiring professionals, ranging between $1 and $4 per square foot.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.
