"Did a great job. The painters were very professional and kept the property clean during painting. Re-stained my front door and painted shutters and other outdoor areas. Really freshened up my property at a pretty good price. Would recommend!"

"Dan and Tyler did an excellent job. We had them paint the fellowship hall at our church. They painted the walls and doors, installed molding around one of the doors, and replaced some ceiling tiles had were damaged. We have used Dan for other jobs around the church. He installed a new railing at the entrance to the church, installed wainscoting and painted the interior of the sanctuary. I have used him at our house. They are our go-to company for jobs around our house as well. Last year they installed a new sliding patio door in our family room. I don't bother getting other estimates from other companies. I know others will probably be higher in price and I know that Dan will do an excellent job. I recommend him highly."

"The man is gifted, painted my whole house free hand, no blue tape. Has been installing floors for me from the first floor, working our way up to the third. He is a beast. Always on time and very efficient. Gets things done quick! Would recommend him to do any job you need done at home."

"An owner himself came to meet with us (Jesse).  He was highly informative, and showed us graphics so we had a clear picture what the work would look like.  He explained every thing fully and we felt like we were his priority.  He quoted the job Friday and the crew arrived at 8:30 AM the following MONDAY-- only 3 days later.  This crew (both days) came in and worked like gangbusters!  Both days they worked 10 hours, and I never noticed anyone taking much a break.  It was actually exciting to see a team attack a project like this.  They were also meticulous:  Norm carried a heavy table out of the basement for me, then he and Angel covered absolutely everything in the basement with plastic.  Every detail of the French drain was addressed: including extending the line out to the street, and tying in problem gutters to relieve our water problems.  We also appreciated Brian (the foreman) explaining everything before and after the job.
I fully recommend this company.  They are serious about getting your business, and doing a professional job in the quickest amount of time possible so you can get back to living.  Very nice crew, great communication, and delivered on everything they promised.

"We have off white stucco that had some flaws and staining on the chimney. We needed repairs and feared we would never get a match close enough. Colby and his team did an amazing job. The repaired the areas that needed fixing and painted the entire chimney and it matches our home perfectly! We highly recommend Davis Painting"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You should refinish your deck to maintain its appearance, durability, and longevity. Refinishing your deck protects the wood from foot traffic and the elements. It also helps extend its life span by keeping rot, mildew, and termites at bay. By maintaining your deck, you can avoid the cost of replacing your deck sooner. A refinished deck also looks great and restores some of its original beauty.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

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.

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.
