"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!!"

"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!"

"Antonelly pro painter company is very professional. Estimate for work to be done was reasonable. I had a two story center hall with multiple doors and a lot of wainscoting. They also painted the hallway area leading up to half bath and bathroom. They were able to repair damage done to walls from wallpaper removal and improve wainscoting area from pet chewing. Prep work and cleanup excellent. Work done in a timely fashion with explanation as needed done every step of the way."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.

The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.

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.

Yes, it is important to wash your deck before painting to ensure the paint applies well and adheres properly. While you don't have to use a pressure washer, it is one of the most efficient cleaning methods. Pressure washing can quickly remove dirt, wood fibers, and flaked paint, getting deeper into the wood than manual scrubbing. You can also clean the deck with a stiff broom and a cleaning solution. Regardless of the method, a clean surface is essential for good paint adhesion. Make sure the deck is completely dry before applying any paint.

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.
