"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!"

"Jeff and his team are professional from start to finish. An accurate quote was provided prior to starting the job, the team arrived on time, and they finished the job in one day (repairing, prepping, and painting bedroom walls, ceiling, and trim). The team cleaned up after themselves and the paint job looks fantastic. I'm sure you could find someone to do the job at a cheaper rate, but I know that the workmanship would not be the same. We have used them for a couple of interior paint jobs, and I will absolutely use them again."

"We purchased a home and needed a large amount painting to be done. Bobby was professional through the entire process. He was there when he said he would be, paid attention to detail and left everything clean. He did a great job and was fairly priced. I would highly recommend him and definitely use him for all of our painting needs."

"Five Star Painting just finished painting the exterior of our house and it looks fantastic! Neighbors and people walking by are commenting on how great it looks. Everyone we dealt with was great, they all showed up on time and left the work area neat and clean. Would definitely hire them again."

"Mark and his crew at ABC Fine Home Painting were very professional and provided quality service. Mark worked with us to provide an accurate estimate. Then he power washed our outbuildings' exteriors and came back later after drying to scrape, paint, and touchup. He clipped vines growing up the side of our structures (with permission) and removed weeds to ensure a thorough and quality paint job. The double barn, stable and additional building took three weeks from start to finish and they stayed all day everyday to ensure the job was done as quickly as possible. Should weather be a concern Mark was in constant contact regarding work schedules. The entire project was explained step by step and the suggested timeline was followed. We were so happy with his work we hired him immediately following to paint our kitchen. Again, the job was done very thoroughly and professionally. Mark asks after each job is completed to inspect the work and to find anything we'd like fixed before he's willing to accept payment. We will definitely use his company again."

"Eric is the owner of EJ painting. He is honest and hardworking. His prices are the best and his work always out shines the more expensive competitors. Eric works in my house when I am work and he leaves my house as clean as when he started. He has painted and done sheet rock in the majority of my home. He also power washed my garage floor! He’s extremely versatile and aims to please. I have never once been disappointed in his work. I will be hiring him again to do my bathroom next. A+"

"Louis and John are experts at painting. They are neat, efficient, and were great with my home’s 100 year-old plaster walls. I found them to be hard working, on-time, and respectful to my home like it was their own. I highly rate the quality of their paint and of their painting."

Customers say: Quick response

"B&B Interiors painted a previously wallpapered bathroom as well as a upstairs and downstairs hallway with staircase. Wallpaper was removed with no damage to walls! We have natural woodwork throughout the house and there was not one drop of paint anywhere on the woodwork! Bill is meticulous and has very high standards. He goes out of his way to make sure the customer is satisfied. We would highly recommend him and will use B&B interiots for our future painting jobs."

"Our house was in desperate need of painting and we brought Worry Free in to provide us with an estimate. Their price was more than competitive and their customer service was far better than I could have anticipated. From start to finish, the crew was professional, curious and focused on providing a positive experience. Our neighbors actually commented on how much care they put into protecting our landscaping and how professional the crew was. It’s amazing what a fresh coat of paint can do because our home looks great! These guys truly make it “Worry Free”"

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

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.

On most untreated wood fences, there is no need to sand before treating. You typically only need to sand if there’s an old coat of paint or stain on your fence. If you do need to sand off a previous paint or protective coating (like an old stain or sealant), use medium-grit sandpaper.

If it rains after you paint your fence, you may need to apply another coat of paint after the fence thoroughly dries. This will ensure a good seal if the rain weakened any areas of the paint. However, if your paint had enough time to dry thoroughly before it rained, you should have no problem.

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.
