"Fabiano was a pleasure to work with. He was punctual when showing up to provide an estimate and to the project itself. He gave me accurate time lines and updates in real time when fixing my deck. After comparing 4 other contractors to replace my deck, Fabiano gave the best quote with no surprises and the estimate was spot on! I would absolutely recommend Fabiano for your next project"

"Steve called imediately after my request for painting contractors and was able to come by the house within a day or two to give an estimate. We wanted our 2-story foyer, upstairs hallways, ceiling and all of the baseboards/trim painted. We chose the paint color which would have been a disaster - Steve gave us his honest opinion of the color options that would look best and left the swatches with us to decide. He was so right. The job was done in a day-and-half and looks great. We could not be happier with the job he and Alvo did. You can't go wrong with hiring Steve!"

"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!!!!!!"

"Ryan’s painting work was executed with an exceptional level of skill and attention to detail. From the outset, the floors were protected, and all the walls were patched. The painters were methodical in their preparation, thoroughly protecting our household items. We were very happy with the finished product and will definitely hire him again for all our painting needs."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

Waterproof paint creates a barrier to hold back moisture, but it doesn’t eliminate the source of the water. If you hire a basement waterproofing contractor, many will tell you that waterproof paint is only a temporary solution. On average, you can expect it to last from six months to two years in a wet basement before deteriorating.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the color of the existing siding or walls. Most professionals offer this service to ensure the repaired area blends in seamlessly.
