"I cannot recommend Irvin and Prime Offer Paint Company enough! We reached out to several vendors for our project, but Irvin stood out immediately with his responsiveness. He came out the very next day to provide a quote, and remarkably, he had the team started on the project the day after that. His pricing was fair and perfectly matched the high value of work and service we received. Irvin was professional throughout the entire process and provided expert advice that really helped us make the right decisions. What impressed us most was his dedication—he managed to complete the project right on schedule, despite a snowstorm hitting midway through! We are already preparing to use Prime Offer Paint Company for future services. If you need a painter, look no further."

"I Had a phenomenal experience with John and his team. I had called to get an estimate and see if what I visioned was possible and John not only got right back to me but within a timely manner they were ready to start! The team was very polite and accommodating to my schedule and expectations. John was patient with last minute changes on my end and didn’t treat me as a customer but a friend. The remodel turned out better than I had imagined and I am still in disbelief how my home looks! I will 100% be calling them again when I’m ready to tackle the basement renovation! "

"I hired the construction company to put polymeric sand on my patio to prevent weeds from growing. I was told the job will be done. But upon completion, the weeds started to grow within a week and now it is been a few weeks, and there is weeds all over the place. Upon questioning, I was then told that it is regular sand that was filled and not polymeric sand. I paid over $2000 to have the work done. It seems like the money went down the drain for nothing. I just wish that I was told beforehand about what kind of sand will be used. I would have hired someone else to do the job then had I known. Now I am going to end up spraying everything many times a year again. Also, I am stuck with this send which I do not know how to remove to redo the job."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

The need for a topcoat on a painted deck depends on various factors, primarily the type of paint used and your desired level of protection. Many premium deck paint formulations are self-sealing, eliminating the necessity for an additional topcoat. These paints often have built-in additives that substantially protect against moisture, UV rays, and everyday wear and tear.

You can paint over old paint on a concrete porch. For the best results, you should first clean the surface and remove as much paint as you can. A power washer is helpful here, but you’ll also want to scrape as much of the old paint away as possible. Then you should prime the porch before repainting it.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.
