"Rick and his team were efficient, clean and careful to cover all floor surfaces and furniture. They cleaned up at the end of every day. They spent time to research to make certain the correct product was applied prior to the final coat of stain. I will define hire MOV Paintinjg for future projects."

"Over the past 13 years I have had numerous contractors work on my 7 rental properties. but Gary Brown has surpassed them all in quality of craftmanship, time taken to complete the job, and price. For this project he and his crew did the following: Sided (vinyl) and reroofed a laundry room addition, reroofed one side of the main roof, power washed and stained the deck, reinstalled faulty gutters, and came up with a creative solution for the six columns that hold up the front porch, adding metal "feet," and wood trim and then painting them and the entire porch, making the neighbors very happy. The roof over the laundry roof had to be raised to give it a better pitch, something I hadn't thought of as a way to stop the leaking once and for all. Gary sent me digital Before and After pictures from his computer. This was great because I live 10 hours away and couldn't actually visit the site. These guys really are professional, and they completed everything in 4 days! They also did a few extra details that I hadn't asked for to make the total curb appeal especially sharp. They take pride in what they do. To see the Before and After photos, write to me at [email protected] Gary is a real pro. He's communicative, smart, techno savy, and a man of his word. I can't recommend him highly enough. As you can see, he does EVERYTHING, and that includes indoor projects. On a scale of 1-10, I give hims a solid 10."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don’t want paint that’ll show every mark like matte, but you don’t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.

Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.
