"Jeff Desatnik painted our living room, dining room and front hallway. We had difficult flaking paint on the ceilings of both major rooms and detailed areas that required trim repair and wallboard new work and repairs. Jeff is a superb craftsman and has the critical eye for detail and the excellent skill set to complete the job on time and on budget. We are extremely pleased with his workmanship and his ability to work in our home with minimal disruption. We highly recommend him!"

"We were completely happy with the spray painting of our unfinished basement ceiling. Nik and Brandon showed up at the scheduled time. They worked efficiently: did a very good prep work, painting and clean up work. We were so pleased that we already lined up the next job with them drywalling and painting some walls in our basement. They have great work ethic and are very professional, respectful and polite."

"CDJ did an amazing job painting our family room and bathroom. Our bathroom walls had cracking paint and they went above and beyond to fix it. They were easy to work with, trustworthy and had great communication. We plan to use them for future projects and would highly recommend."

"Frank provided excellent customer service, as well as, an outstanding completed project. From painting my entire condo, installing new flooring throughout the main floor, completely redoing the bathroom including removing the tub and installing a beautiful walk in shower, to installing a new kitchen sink and counter tops, I am more than pleased. I would definitely hire Frank for any future job. Strongly recommend Frank and his team."

"Andy does it all. He painted every square foot of our home, including trim and doors. Repaired trim and drywall. Installed appliances. Hung fans and light fixtures. And more! The quality of work is outstanding and his attention to detail is exceptional. We are asking Andy to work on exterior matters this Spring and Summer. Andy cleans up at the end of each day. He is meticulous and being very picky homeowners, we appreciate the quality of his work."

Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

We don’t recommend it. A wired brush or a brush with metal bristles damages concrete and asphalt during the stain removal process. For the best results, stick to nylon stiff enough to do the job but gentle enough to keep from scratching the driveway. For extra caution, skip the brush entirely and use towels.

Yes, you can paint a chain-link fence, but you don’t want to use spray paint. With the spray method, you’ll be losing a majority of your product to the air, given the size of the gaps in chain-link fences. Instead, use a paintbrush for your fence posts and a paint roller for the wire.
