"Rob painted the hallway of our 4 storey condo, and also revarnished the much weathered front door. The entire project went so smoothly! Rob worked quickly, and neatly. The hallway looks fantastic. The entire job went so well, I asked him to paint our living room next!"

"Andres and his team did an amazing job painting our garage. We had paint that had been peeling off for years. His team peeled the paint, filled mortar in some of the concrete gaps and then gave the garage a fresh coat of paint. Couldn’t be happier. This is the second time I’ve used Andres and will continue to use him for all my painting needs."

"Rafael and his team did an amazing job! | hired them to paint two bedrooms and a bathroom, and to remove the popcorn ceilings. They were kind, professional, and extremely detail-oriented. I was able to work with their interior designer to choose paint colors, which made the process even easier. They started the job quickly, were reasonably priced, and the quality was outstanding. I've already asked them to come back to paint the rest of my house. I highly recommend Superb Painting!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

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 can use latex or acrylic paint outdoors. Although acrylic paint tends to last longer outside, it also costs more, so if you’re painting the outside of your house, for instance, latex paint is often a go-to option. However, acrylic will be your best choice if you want to spend some extra money for added durability.

Regular cleaning, rust-proof coatings, and checking fasteners help prolong the lifespan.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.
