"Paulo and his partner did an amazing job painting our dining/living room. They also removed the popcorn ceiling that other painters would not touch. They were professional and their work tells it all. The owner also contacted me to make sure I was completely satisfied and if I needed anything touched up after my floor was sanded and sealed. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a professional great job!!"

"Great! The crew came early in the morning and left early in the evening, working in mid-40's degree temperatures. Although they have another days work to do, the porch already looks phenomenal and the front door frame is so much better than it was."

"I needed the backsplash in my kitchen done professionally since I chose tile, which is not something I could do. Torin fit my smaller project in , between his bigger outdoor projects. He was very professional, offered suggestions, did a great job, both installing and cleaning up each day so as not to disrupt my kitchen usage. His measurements and quantities were spot on( I was ordering the tile myself). I will definitely call him for my next project. His quote and finished price were almost spot on and very reasonable. I highly recommend him for anything you need done!"

"Lighthouse Painting just finished painting our home. The crew did a wonderful job, making sure each phase was done completely before moving on. We changed colors and after the two coats of stain, there are none of the old colors to be seen. Highly recommend them to others. The crew was easy to work with and put in full days on the job."

"Costas and his team did a wonderful job on my Aunt's home. What started off as a deck repair, turned into so much more (siding, windows, new 1/2 bath). The house had been in a bit of disrepair and he was very thoughtful and thorough in his approach to bringing it back to life. My family and I will enjoy it for many years to come, and I truly appreciate some of the little things he did along the way to ensure everything was done right. He took the initiative to select things when I was not able to be there. It felt very much like he was treating as if it were his own home. His attention to detail was terrific, and he was super responsive. THANK YOU again!"

"Working with Brian and Northern Ridge was a great experience - Excellent pricing and my deck looks terrifi!. Moustafa was a hard worker, very friendly and did a wonderful job staining the deck. Brian came back to look over everything and even made a few touch ups himself - I was very impressed with him and his entire crew. They were a joy to deal with and very professional. I would recommend Northern Ridge to anyone who wants to deal with a customer-oriented company that does excellent work!"

"I recently hired Antonelly Pro Painters, led by Alex, to paint my mother’s living room, dining room, bathroom, and kitchen. They handled the walls, trim, ceiling and doors with excellent craftsmanship and great attention to detail, especially for her 80-year-old home. Alex provided a clear estimate, a reliable schedule, and outstanding communication throughout the project. The refreshed rooms truly made my mother’s day. I highly recommend Antonelly Pro Painters for their professionalism, quality work, and excellent customer service."

"After 2 bad experiences with painting jobs over the years, we had given up hope of having a beautiful home exterior. I am so glad we found ECE. They were fantastic. They knew what our house needed -- mainly, a thorough and professional prepping, which we had not gotten before. They took their time to make sure it was done properly, including carpentry to replace old boards. They even worked with the paint store to make sure we got the exact color we wanted. I would recommend them without hesitation."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s best to use an exterior latex acrylic paint to promote maximum adhesion to composite decking. This flexible paint type can better cope with the natural expansion and contraction that can occur with composite deck boards. Oil-based paints won’t adhere as effectively and are more likely to crack and peel as the boards flex. Testing whether your chosen paint will stick on an inconspicuous section or a spare board is a good idea.

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.

Costs depend on coating type, labor, site preparation, and required finishes.

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.

You can paint over old paint on a concrete porch. For the best results, you should first clean the surface and remove as much paint as you can. A power washer is helpful here, but you’ll also want to scrape as much of the old paint away as possible. Then you should prime the porch before repainting it.
