"I had the pleasure of hiring this Bobby on two separate occasions to paint trim, doors, and ceilings in my home. The quantity of his work was excellent. He used top tear paint that left the surfaces looking fresh and vibrant. Not only he was meticulous in his craftsmanship, but he was also punctual and completed both jobs efficiently. What truly stood out was his attention to detail and ensuring everything was cleaned up once the job was finished. I highly recommend him for anyone seeking reliable, high quality paint services."

"Joseph did a great job, we had over 200 nail pops prior to painting. He took care them all. Very pleasant to work with. When the job was completed he cleaned up the floors, counters and steps. I would definitely use Joseph again for repairs and painting."

"Great! Sampson painting exceeded my expectations! The painters were so great to work with, they were very respectful of our house, their attention to detail when spackling and painting created a professional painted finish - AND, they finished sooner than expected… what more could you ask for? Also, I completely trusted them in the house, since I had to come and go I made a key for them with no worries whatsoever. When I first contacted them via Angi, they called and arranged an estimate within 24 hours. PS: I got estimates from three companies but knew as soon as I met Tim I was confident I’d found the right company for the job. I was right."

"My husband and I hired Edy’s Quality Painting to paint the entire interior of our home. We chose them after reaching out to multiple companies because their pricing was reasonable and customer service impeccable. Rich, the person responsible for organizing Edy’s schedule was the first person to get back to us and the only person to explain in detail what we could expect if we hired them. Rich is also so personable; I felt like I was talking to an uncle every time I spoke to him. Once we hired them, it was evident that Edy is a true artist who takes pride in his work. Edy is also very considerate; he made a special trip back to paint our floor molding, as he knew we were getting our floors refinished. We were so happy with their service we hired Edy to come back and paint our stair railing. Even then, he made a special trip to finish the railing to ensure the weather permitted proper drying. We plan to hire them again in the near future to paint our deck and highly recommend them overall."

"The crew was timely, quick and neat in completing the job. They painted over half of the entire interior including the ceilings. We will have them do the remainder of the interior when we are ready to have it done. Very responsive to any concerns we raised at the finish and made sure they were addressed to our satisfaction."

"Mc Guire Paint LLC was very professional , easy to work with our schedule. Painting and spackling was completed in a timely manner. The interior of painted walls and trim looks beautiful. The home needed spackling repairs. They did a great job repairing the cracks. I highly recommend McGuire Painting LLC."

"We hired ETC home improvements after meeting Eddie and receiving a very reasonable quote. We had two paint projects, the first was an entire house without ceilings and the second was two rooms and the ceilings. The paint crew was meticulous in their painting. They picked up our paint, arrived on time and began working immediately. The worked hour after hour from 9 am until nearly 6 pm The removed valances and blinds and after the paint dried, they reinstalled them. The were careful in moving furniture, covered everything with plastic and drop cloths. Our home was probably cleaner after they left than when they started, Exceptionally gracious, kind and professional. Would definitely recommend and would absolutely use them again in the future."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

The best finish for wrought iron railings is either a semi-gloss or a gloss sheen, as each offers good durability against rain, wind, heat, cold, and snow. 

Maintaining a composite fence is pretty straightforward, as it doesn’t require staining or repainting. To keep it clean, scrub the fencing with a composite deck cleaner or hot, soapy water. Use a soft-bristle brush for the best results, and avoid using pressure washers or sanders. Plan to clean your fence at least twice a year. Scrubbing the fencing in the fall and spring can help prevent mold and mildew growth.

Typically, a fence requires one to two coats of stain. The exact number can vary depending on the porosity of the wood. For specific guidance, it's best to check the manufacturer's instructions. After applying the first coat and letting it dry completely, you can assess the finish. If it appears patchy, uneven, or you want a more saturated color, a second coat is recommended. An extra coat can also help cover lap marks.
