"We had our kitchen cabinets painted by Franks painting and we were completely satisfied with the work. The cabinets look fabulous and everyone was very professional, efficient and friendly. Frank responded quickly to our request for a quote and the project was scheduled just as quickly. The painter’s were here everyday and in time. They were friendly and very professional. They cleaned up at the end of the project and there was no mess to contend with. We are very happy with the job that was done and we will be recommending them to anyone who needs painting done."

"Manny and his team did a fantastic job on staining my deck! Got the old paint off with great detail then stained it for a great finish. When I noticed something that was concerning, he redid the section to make sure I was pleased, no questions asked. He was punctual, kind and fast! Highly recommended and will be using him for other projects. Great experience all around!"

"We received proposals from several painters on Long Island, but Purely Paint provided the most thorough proposal, which included room by room details and pricing for the project. Mike advised us about paint choices and colors which were appropriate for our house. His team was neat and professional. The results were amazing! I would not hesitate to recommend Purely Paint if you are looking for excellent service and a professional painter who is engaged in the process from start to finish. D.F. Great Neck, Long Island, NY."

Customers say: Quick response

"I had a bathroom and dining room ceiling painted. Both needed repairs prior to painting. John was really good and I would definitely use JP painting again. Both my bathroom and dining room ceiling looked great. He was neat, cleaned up completely and there were no surprise costs or issues in the end."

"I had my exterior painted by George last spring and we were very satisfied with his results. My wife loved how the exterior came out. Now we needed a room painted and had George do it for us and again he did a fantastic job. He addressed every item we asked about and the result was another fantastic painting job. P.S. also a great price!!! Would hire him again when I need anything else painted."

"Scott and his crew did an amazing job. Our cedar shingle house had not been painted in at least 15 years and needed a lot of attention. They finished on time (2 1/2 days) and on budget. Would definitely recommend!"

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.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Yes, you can paint galvanized chain link, but the process is a bit more difficult as it requires additional prep work. Before applying the primer and paint, you must remove the original coating from the metal, which can be time-consuming. If the original coating is not removed, the primer and paint will not bond properly and cause peeling over time.

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.
