"New Era Pro Painting exceeded our expectations on all levels. From the very detailed quote to the great care by which they treated our home. They scraped everything, filled in holes, sanded, replaced rotten boards, primed and then painted our entire three story house. The worksite was kept very clean and the team was incredibly responsive and a pleasure to have on our property. We definitely recommend. Our house looks beautiful."

"I recently had the exterior of my home painted and I’m really pleased with the results. The quality of the work was great—everything looks clean, even, and professionally done. They were on time, stuck to what they promised, and communicated clearly throughout the process. The price felt fair and they left everything neat and cleaned up when the job was done. Overall, it was a smooth experience from start to finish. I would definitely recommend them to others looking for exterior painting."

"We hired Old World Painting primarily for exterior wood staining, but also some interior work. Although the job took longer than expected, the workmanship and attention to detail were outstanding, and it was well worth the wait. The cost was also highly competitive. DJ, Angel, Carl, Josh, and Kareem contributed and were all professional and friendly. We will definitely hire them again."

"FABULOUS!! We hired Steve and his crew to paint the interior of my father-in-laws home to get it ready to sell. The house went from a 1970's pink and mauve nightmare to a hip and cool 2018 ready to sell home. They painted every room -kitchen, living room, dining room, bathroom and two bedrooms and ceilings. Plus all the trim, doors, steps etc. The work was meticulous. We have had so many compliments and people cannot believe it is the same house!!! All done within a week at a very reasonable price. It was a pleasure working with Steve and Alvo and I plan on hiring them to paint the exterior and interior of my home. I am so lucky I found him and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top notch professional painter. They were on time, very clean and did very precise work. We couldn't be happier! Absolutely Gorgeous Paint Job!!!"

"Estimator arrived when expected. I was very impressed by his professionalism and knowledge. While I did not choose Nolan's for the deck which is my immediate need, I will most likely use them for the interior work."

"I can't say enough praise about this company. They were fabulous. I stressed to the Manager Chris, how important communication was to me and he was wonderful keeping me informed about the entire project. Chris was very detailed in writing down on the invoice the exact work on wall repairs and painting that was to occur. He came to the site almost every day to ask if I had any guestions or concerns. The painters, Matt, Silas and John were professional, courteous, attentive and very hard working. Great job guys. I will let you know when the next painting/plaster repair job will be at this old house. thanks again!!!!!!"

"David is great. I'd call him again and recommend him to everyone. The project started and ended on time, even though the humidity was against us. He was on time every day and a pleasure to have in the house. Unfortunately, I talked to him a couple of times (great conversationalist) and even though I slowed him down; he plugged on in a great mode. They say you get what you pay for; I got way more than what I paid for. He wasn't the cheapest, he wasn't the most expensive and gave a veterans discounts. But the job turned out way better, then expected and turned what we had done into part of the show case of our house. He fixed holes, dents and cracks; sealed, put on 2 coats, and just made the paint sparkle (flat finish lol) If you need paint, David is the man to call."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place.
