"Slower than expected; due to rain and storms. Normally a crew of 4 experienced painters showed up at 9 am and often stayed until 5:30 or 6 pm. They laid tarps everywhere and were respectful to our neighbors. Excellent detail and trim work. They stored all equipment and replaced deck furniture daily. Excellent crew. Quiet and efficient."

"James was great to deal with, even though we never met. He was the first to call me back from my request through Angi. This property was unoccupied, I gave James the code to get in, which he promptly scheduled a visit to give me a quote. Days later, we agreed on a price and Ingersoll started the job a couple weeks later.... completed. (4 Bedroom ranch, painted all the rooms and ceilings). I just went to my vacation home this weekend and I was totally impressed with the great job Ingersoll did. I never knew they were there! He also got my heat running. Recommend these guys any day!"

"I had my daughter's old bedroom painted from a deep dark turquoise to a light gray. The painter arrived on time, and did a wonderful job. He took off the light and outlet covers and made sure the items were there so when the paint dried I could put them back on. The price was as quote and they did an incredible job. I will never try and paint a room again myself."

"Needed our big wrap around porch repainted. Called Fourever cure and they got back to me right away. The guys ended up doing a great job and used extra trim paint to redo the door. Would recommend if you need a quality job done quick in the area."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.

Hiring a contractor or professional deck refinisher is the best way to ensure your deck is properly stained. They have the expertise, tools, and supplies to do the job quickly and efficiently. However, staining a deck is a manageable task for most homeowners, and doing the job yourself can save money. Just keep in mind that DIY staining is a long process requiring physical strain, so it may not be the best option for everyone.

It’s a good idea to sand your porch before painting. This will remove loose or chipped paint and debris, and give you a cleaner surface so that your new paint goes on smoothly. But if the existing surface is in good condition, it’s not necessary to sand your porch before you paint.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.
