"After contacting a number of contractors to get estimates for this job, I chose Gray Painting because I thought the proposal I received from Jason Gray, owner/operator of Gray Painting, sounded like it had the best plan for prep work for the job. This was important to me since properly preparing the surface to be painted is a big factor in ending up with a good paint job. Also, Gray's price was in line with the quote from the contractor who offered what I thought was the second-best prep plan, and I was favorably impressed with the timeliness of correspondence with Jason (quote given at the time of initial visit, phone calls always returned by the end of the next business day). As for the work done on this job, two men came on the day the project was scheduled to begin, and they worked diligently to scrape and sand (used an orbital sander) to remove the peeling paint and years of accumulated dirt and grime. (The paint was too far gone to power wash; there would have been paint chips blasted everywhere, and it would have gotten the exposed wood underneath all wet.) After scraping and sanding, they brushed off the loose paint chips and dust from sanding, and then they applied a coat of oil-based primer. (Jason had said they would use an oil-based primer to help stop the nails from rusting through the paint again.) Lastly they applied Sherwin-Williams acrylic latex paint. They were able to get most of the job done in one day; Jason came by himself the next day and finished up what was left to be done. Everyone was very pleasant, easy to talk to, and readily answered any questions I had. They all put tarps down before they started work to keep from getting paint chips/sanding dust or fresh paint on the ground/driveway as they worked. And I don't think they got any paint on the brick walls at all. It has now been almost a year since they painted, and it all still looks great. I would highly recommend Gray Painting."

"We highly recommend W.R. Painting! We hired them to paint our Shed, and our Decks, as well to replace some rotten wood on our Shed. Their attention to detail was terrific. Customer service was excellent, and their workmanship was top notch. They were a little pricey, but well worth the dollars spent. Thank you, W.R. Painting for a job well done!"

"BM Custodio Painting and Construction did a fantastic job painting our 5000+ sq ft home from top to bottom!! We did our due diligence and met with several contractors on the same day to obtain quotes for our large painting project. First impressions were that Luis' company would be our top pick given he was knowledgeable, friendly, efficient, and easy to communicate with during our initial meeting.  Before deciding, we gathered all our quotes- BM Custodio sent their estimate back first- and we were pleasantly surprised that his price came in less than the other quotes we received. We contracted them to perform numerous drywall repairs and paint all 3 floors of our home to include ceilings, trim, walls, coffered ceilings, and doors in their entirety!! This was a big undertaking and they did a super job!! We had a full crew of the nicest, most patient guys in our home from morning until night, working tirelessly to get our job done as quickly as possible.  They used quality paint and applied extra coats where needed with great patience and no upcharge.  My husband and I are picky people and this company left us very happy and very thankful for the great job they did in our home!!!!  We highly recommend Luis and his team at BM Custodio Painting and Construction and will definitely hire them again!! Thanks again guys!!"

"They did get the job done right. We had a few rain delays but they would have probably been here consecutively if the weather had not interfered. They had to replace many particle board faux stucco panels on the outside of my house and cedar boards that were eaten up by either the weather or woodpeckers. They fixed all of that and painted the entire house and now it looks fantastic."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.

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.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces if you apply them correctly. Use on non-suitable surfaces can cause issues. For instance, applying limewash or whitewash to surfaces with existing sealants or incompatible materials may lead to poor adhesion or flaking. Also, harsh cleaning agents on limewashed or whitewashed surfaces can damage the finish. Proper preparation, application, and maintenance ensure that limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces.
