"Absolutely the best company for your painting needs in Omaha. I went through nine different quoting processes with various Omaha-based companies before I signed a contract with Ross and his guys at EmeraldPro Painting of Omaha. EmeraldPros quote was the last quote I searched for after being incredibly disappointed with the process I received from other companies. I genuinely knew I was going to go with his proposal before he e-mailed it to me. Ross showed me videos he took of his crews doing work on other houses in Omaha. He showed me the paint and process his crews would be using. Everything he promised from the start was completed at the end with absolutely no surprises. I wasn't looking for a "blow-and-go" job everyone else was leading me to. I wanted my house painted right, with quality paint, done by people who take pride in their work. Ross was extremely friendly, always on time, very personable, and most importantly his guys did an amazing job on my house. Pricing was very, very competitive. They repaired small holes in my siding, replaced rotted facias, painted my entire exterior, and painted my front door. The job site was cleaned at the end of each day, and I was left with a stunning house that I couldn't be any happier about. I've had a lot of bad experiences in my short 7 years of homeownership fixing up my first house, and this has been the most pleasant experience thus far. I will return as a customer for more work down the road, and I will 100% be recommending EmeraldPro Painting of Omaha to any of my friends and family in the future. Thank you Ross, and thank you EmeraldPro Painting of Omaha for getting me excited to pull up to my home again!"

"This is my second time using Superb Painting. The crew was phenomenal with good attitudes and very precise painting abilities. They were very concerned about the house. They inspected their work constantly and decided whether another coat was needed or not. Superb Painting stresses attention to detail and making the current job the most important thing they’re doing or have done. Superb Painting is my go-to painters in Omaha. Fantastic experience!"

"Asked CertaPro to paint our 30-year-old ceilings. They did a great job. They spent 3 days covering, taping and painting 3000+ sq feet of ceiling. The paint crew was superior, friendly, the work excellent, done professionally and on-time. After completion, the cleanup was complete and except for brilliant new ceilings, it was difficult to tell if they were ever here. A+, 5-Star work."

"Bryan was great to work with. He was prompt, polite & personable. But he also did an excellent job. We bought a new home and part of the living room ceiling had an area where a repair had been made but never painted. Bryan matched the ceiling paint and covered the repaired area, saving us hundreds of dollars by not having to paint the entire ceiling. We will definitely use True Finish Painting for future projects. We highly recommend them."

"These painters are ever more impressive and detailed than I ever imagined someone would be. We had multiple people come look at our house to be painted and Randy and Chris immediately stood out to us with their knowledge and understanding of what we wanted. And I never felt like we were being sold or pressured into anything. Highly recommend them!"

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Painting or staining protects fences from environmental damage, enhances durability, and improves curb appeal with a fresh, customized look.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

A dry lawn is easier to edge than a wet one. When your ground is wet, your blades will likely clump together, making a seemingly even cut while wet, but an uneven disaster when dried. Also, a wet lawn can impact your blade's performance and cause mud to kick up, resulting in a messy finish.

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.
