"If you are looking for quality service with great attention to detail for a more than fair price, look no further. Steve was amazing. The quality of his work speaks volumes about his experience, and his pricing about his character. My wife and I hired Steve to do an entire interior job, which, by the end, we were blown away. Our home wasnt on the market for a week before it was rented, thanks to Steve! Will always use this business for future painting needs."

"I donâ t write many reviews but I have to for Juan. I needed my whole interior painted due to flooding. He came over to look at the scope of the job and sent me an estimate that I thought was good. I had several estimates from different companies and I went with the lowest. I was a little nervous because his company had no web presence. But he saw some issues with previous work right away and I felt comfortable with him. I am so happy with my decision. His crew was meticulous in covering my new flooring with paper, repainting previously painted doors that werenâ t done well. I appreciated Juanâ s assistance with paint selection. He is the kindest man! His entire crew is very friendly. My neighbor commented on that! They arrived on time and worked the entire day (my other neighbor commented on that!). Some days there were six workers and all were friendly and nice. When the job was finished, Juan offered to help me put everything where it belonged! They swept and washed the floors! My house is absolutely beautiful now and I canâ t thank him enough. They were so fast that they finished before my money arrived and Juan had to wait a couple days before he was paid in full. He was so kind about it. Everyone who comes in to see the work is awed. And even better, my house is finally livable and beautiful as well."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

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.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

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.

You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.
