"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!"

"I had ceiling repaired from water damage and room painted. Everything was done in a timely manner, clean up, and pictures placed back on walls. I am very satisfied with work and will definitely hire them again."

"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 stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

Regular staining, sealing, and inspecting for rot or insect damage prolongs fence lifespan.

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.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.
