"The crew did a very good job on the work.  Very detailed oriented, no carelessness seen in the painting, trim lines were sharp and well done.  I was able to watch the crew a couple days near the end of the day and they were walking around carefully checking their work to make sure nothing was missed, touching up spots that needed work and didn't seem in a hurry to leave just because the day was close to an end.  On the last day they even took a moment to fix a loose door handle on a storm door that they came across that I hadn't noticed.
As far as cost comparison, the quotes for the work was in the middle of the range from the other operators but this isn't a completely apples to oranges comparison as Action Painting and Repair's quote on the painting project had more detail on the prep work and included some carpentry repair cost upfront whereas the other operators statement of work and cost quote was more vague and just seemed to be painting and power washing.  The quote cost for the gutter install was in line with other quotes I received.
Importantly, the owner/operator, Matthew White, promptly returned phone calls and emails and also showed up for quotes and work reviews when he said he would.  His crews showed up when they said they would and never left a mess behind. 
This is contrast to the three other operators I contacted for quotes.  One didn't return my call for a week, after I had selected Action Painting and another no called no showed for the first contact quote.

"Mr. Reese was very professional. He checked the house for necessary repairs before beginning the job and provided various options for repairs. He replaced soffits, caulked, repaired or replaced damaged wood, painted wrought iron, removed and replaced shutters, removed gutters and patched roof. He completed the job on time and at a reasonable price. I would definitely use him again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

There are deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

You may be wondering: can you paint cement? Fortunately, the answer is yes.

To change the color of your cinder blocks, you have two options. You can either paint them or stain them. Either way, you'll be able to choose from a wide range of color options. Some popular colors for cinder block painting include off-white shades and gray tones, which add a modern spin to the traditional gray blocks.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for.
