"Mr. Silva was very professional. He kept in contact with me prior to coming out to do the job. He arrived at the time he ssid he would. They did an amazing job on the ceiling. It was an arched wood ceiling with wooden beams. The end results were exceptional. They cleaned up everything when they were done. I am so glad we found Silva painting. I highly recommend them for all your paintings needs."

"Juan was incredible to work with! I work for a non-profit and partnered Xtreme Painting LLC to stain the outside of a wooden playhouse for one of my clients. He did SUCH a beautiful job, was so responsive, went out of his way to help accommodate both me and the family of my client, and was so knowledgeable. I would love the opportunity to work with him on any other projects that may come up!"

We recently purchased a 2nd home on Lake James with an exterior that is 100% cedar.  The exterior was in serious need of cleaning and re-staining.  It had not been maintained; and, had a significant amount of mold staining and several areas of the trim had the original finish peeling off.

We contracted with Mike and Crystal to prep and re-stain the exterior of our home.  Throughout the process, Mike demonstrated thoroughness, competency and responsibility.  Mike and Crystal took personal responsibility to ensure they delivered a quality product.  Mike kept his commitments and did not compromise his work product even when faced with the stripping process taking more time than he expected.  He completed the project per the schedule he committed.

Mike demonstrated a high attention to detail in the finishing process and ensured the project was completed to my satisfaction.  The home looks beautiful...we could not be happier.

I solicited bids from several paint contractors and evaluated several before selecting Mike.  His pricing was very competitive versus several other contractors; but, I never observed where Mike cut corners.

I would definitely recommend MIke's Painting and will plan to use Mike again when we have painting needs.

"I provided top grade Sherwin Williams paint. The painter used the semigloss intended for the windows, baseboards and trim on the ceiling. Then put flat on the other surfaces. The wall trim had to be redone and another coat to the walls. I had to purchase another $78 of paint for the painter to use. He did not understand English so I was wondering if this was really James Painting or someone contracted out. The check was written to Santiago Echeverria. They got paint on my very expensive Kincaid four poster bed. When I called to let them know, the female was rude and yelled "What do you want?". They were upset they had to come back and fix everything the next day. He only came back. I was kind and even gave him $100 more for coming out a second day. These were not professional painters. I know, my husband was one before he had a double lung transplant. He had to explain that inside of door frames had to be painted, and that flat paint was on everything, not semigloss. No, I would not recommend James Painting to anyone."

"Devin and Justin are true professionals who do excellent work and will do whatever it takes to make sure you are happy. We hired them to do custom built-ins and a fireplace mantel/surround. The finished product was beautiful and just as we had pictured it. This is because these guys are very good communicators and excellent craftsmen who stand behind their work. On top of that they are prompt and unfailingly courteous. They even cleaned up the entire work area every single day. We are thrilled to have found these carpenters and intend to call them again for future projects."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, beginners can use a paint sprayer, but there is a learning curve. It's important to go slowly, read the instructions thoroughly, and spend some time learning the technique. Watching tutorial videos for your specific paint sprayer model can be very helpful. Before starting your main project, practice on a scrap surface to get used to the sprayer and avoid common issues like overspraying, which can cause drips, bubbles, and other imperfections. For safety, always wear a mask and gloves, and be careful not to touch the sprayer's tip when it's in use, particularly with high-powered airless sprayers.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

You’ll need to restrain your deck when you notice fading, cracking, peeling, or mold and mildew over a moderate to large area, or when it’s become especially difficult to clean. As for how often to stain a deck, plan to do it every two to three years or whenever you start to notice extended damage.
