"Excellent. We were very impressed that Matt & his team came out one day, pressured washed the house and then returned the next day to paint the house-twice. They masked the windows (now we know what it feels like being on the inside of a fish tank) and cleaned up after. Matt was very knowledgeable about cedar sided homes and painting with a solid wood stain. Would I hire him again-yes."
"The only painter I will hire from now on. Very fair pricing. Does what they say and not happy until customer happy. A great paint job and cleaned up nicely."
"Sanchez paint crew spent over two days prepping the deck by hand stripping, pressure washing, damage repair, and sanding. Key areas like top rails were primed and seams sealed. On 3rd day, 2 coats of solid color stain have my deck looking like new. I might add that temp approached 100 each day. The crew was polite, neat and responsive. No mess at all...could not tell they had been there each day other than the work completed. We will definitely use again!"
"I highly recommend 360 Painting! Jimmy and Levi were awsome to work with! Jimmy was very accommodating, even offering to meet me to pick out paint and stain colors for my home project. Levi did a fantastic job with painting and staining. I feel 360 painting transformed my home! 360 painting is the Best!!"

"Painted almost entire downstairs of our home. From the moment Laura came to measure I felt confident I would be happy with their work. They did a beautiful job. I would highly recommend them."
"all of the work was done in 2.5 days. very professional crew, equipment and truck. they cleaned up after everyday. they even brought in excess paints and stains from previous jobs to stain my privacy fence and deck, something that I was not charged for. I went with 3 quotes but for the work needed these guys had the best price."
"John Goodfellow was very responsive and flexible in order to match my tight deadline. He was very professional, and did a great job with the painting, including prep (protecting the wall to wall carpeting, removing all electric plate covers, etc) and cleaning up. I would definiely hire him again."
"Excellent five star work and didn't take long at all super professional HIGHLY recommending them to anyone that is looking for a top notch paint job."
Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.
Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.
When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years.
Staining pressure-treated wood is a recommended practice. While inherently resilient, it's not impervious to moisture and UV exposure. Staining treated wood is feasible and recommended for enhanced protection and longevity. Applying stain and sealant safeguards against degradation, prolonging its life span. These measures shield the wood from environmental threats while augmenting its aesthetic appeal, ensuring your investment endures the test of time.
Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.
