"My 1995 oak cabinets were painted white and the doors and drawer faces were replaced and then painted. They look beautiful! I also had a custom cabinet built along with a kitchen island. The craftsmanship is on point! My kitchen transformation looks amazing. I would definitely recommend Palette Pro!"

"We hired MH Painting to repair several large cracks on walls and ceiling, to paint 3 rooms including a bedroom where he sanded and refinished the floor, to paint our hallway and paint and refinish several doors. He also painted our staircase. Matt did an excellent job! He was very skilled and accommodating. We are very pleased with the results and will definitely call on MHPainting for future projects."

"From the time I met Sheki, I felt really comfortable hiring J & S Painting to do the work we needed around the house. We have now used them twice in the past year for two large painting projects at our house. Sheki's prices were competitive compared to all the other quotes I got. If I had any questions while the work was going on, Sheki and Pam, the office manager, would respond quickly. I initially hired J&S in Fall of 2019 to paint my basement, sand and paint all the wooden siding and trim on the exterior of my house, paint the window shutters, power wash the exterior of my house, and stain my deck. Jose and the crew did an amazing job over multiple days completing all the work and cleaning up all the materials. I ended up expanding the scope of the project and also had Jose replace the top railings on my deck, which they did for a very fair price. When I also asked Sheki if they could also paint the metal railings on my front steps, he didn't even charge me extra for it. A few months after the initial project was complete, we decided to paint the majority of the interior of the house this summer (July 2020). We went back to Sheki and J & S Painting. They painted the walls, ceilings, trim, and doors in multiple rooms (including a room with cathedral ceilings) with two coats in two days. I also had them paint the risers, stringers, and baluster on our stairs. Work also included painting a portion of the aluminum siding on the side of the house. The crew was quick, efficient, precise, and did excellent work. I will hire J & S Painting again the next time we have a painting project."

"Before we decided to hire Anton's team from European Craftsman and Remodeling to power wash the exterior of our log home and put two new coats of stain on it, we did a good deal of shopping around. Our past experience had taught us that we needed to be extra careful with the professionalism of the painter we wanted to hire. My husband and I received a few estimates and we didn't go for the lowest bid. Instead, we were struck by Anton's professional knowledge and sensed that he was probably the guy we needed. And we were right. Anton was punctual, responsible, and observed the terms of our contract. He made sure that the stain be applied evenly across the log by using a special equipment to spray the surface and the result has been fantastic. Although the Sikkens ProLuxe Cetol stain cost us much more than the ordinary stain, we love the new look of our home and admire the craftsmanship of Anton's team. We will hire them again."

"We couldn't have been more pleased with the quality of the service and the work that was done. General Painting is a professionally run operation; we appreciated the attention to detail that was evident from the job estimate, contract and follow through on promises. Ours is an old shingled farm house that needed the wood shingle to be stained and the trim to be painted. The prep work they did was impressive and the crew was unfailingly polite and responsive to any concerns or directives. We will be using them again for interior work in the near future!!! We whole heartedly recommend them."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

You have a couple of options when choosing a durable pool deck coating. Epoxy is common and offers excellent stain and water resistance. Epoxy also withstands high temperatures and UV lighting, making it ideal for sunny spots. You can also add a coating to cement, which significantly lowers the temperature of the concrete, is environmentally safe, and makes cleanup a breeze.

Essential tools include brushes or rollers, drop cloths, sandpaper or power sanders, and appropriate cleaning supplies. Quality materials ensure long-lasting results.
