"Arron, the owner was very easy to work with and very professional He and his crew showed up on time and got the job done in a timely manner. We have a log home that needed to be stained and sealed and intercession solutions did a very good job. The stain and trim paint were the wrong color ( my fault) and Aaron took it back and made us very happy with the next colors we chose no fuss no attitude overall it was a very good experience and I would recommend this company for any remodeling needs"

"Great work! We were on a major time crunch- closed on a house on Friday and was moving in Wednesday. Needed popcorn ceiling removal on 2000+ sq ft house. They were completely done when we showed up Wednesday & looked great! They scraped, sprayed orange peel texture and painted. We loved the end result!"

"Steve & co did a great job painting the trim of my house. Our home looks much better compared to the original look. In addition, it only took him and his crew three days to complete the entire job. The wifey and I are more than pleased with the final results and a job well done! Thank you Steve."

"I had two large bathrooms that needed to have very bold print wall paper removed or covered up.  I was very nervous about this process as I had heard stories and seen bad examples of attempts to do this.  I sought out consultations and found Steven Macon to be the most thorough and to offer the most comprehensive plan for ensuring full coverage with a combination of stripping loose areas, sealing seams and texturing over bold print prior to primer and paint.  He looked at each room and inspected the condition, texture and print of the wall paper very thoroughly before making his recommendations.  He offered several levels of texturing, providing pictures to assist me in the decision process.  He patiently explained the process he would use in each room which varied based on the condition of the wall paper.  He was thorough, answered all of my questions, gave options in consideration of my budget and put my mind at ease regarding the quality of the end result.  I was uncertain of color scheme and he was very helpful in providing color suggestions that would complement the surrounding areas in the house and still provide some accent.  All of this took place in our initial consultation.  After reviewing the three bids and consultations that I had obtained there was no question he was the best option as no one provided the comprehensive knowledge base that he clearly had of both interior design and technique.  He was able to meet the very specific schedule requirements that I had within a week's time and was willing to work with me in coordinating access to the house.  I found him to be very dependable and respectful of my time.  He always contacted me if he was running even a few minutes behind schedule when meeting me at the house.  Other than utilizing a helper on the initial prep stage, he did all of the work himself.  When the helper was there, Mr. Macon worked right along aside him at all times.  As previously stated, I was not sure of my color selection for one of the bathrooms so he used a color primer to help me get a feel for the look and when I asked to change the final coat color he didn't hesitate and made the change which ended up being perfect.  Several months later I have had ample opportunity to inspect the quality of the work and can say that you would not know there was ever wall paper in either bathroom and the texture and paint coverage/color looks fantastic. I found Steven Macon to be very knowledgeable about all aspects of the interior design process.  He has a degree in interior design and art and brings an understanding of the overall context that I had not experienced with previous painters or in any other consultations.  He is pleasant, professional and very competitive in his pricing.  I would not hesitate to use him again and would recommend him to anyone.  He has the perfect blend of interior design knowledge, technique,  and professionalism."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

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.

Maintain your wattle fence by inspecting it at least twice per year for loose weaving and degrading branches. Replace any seriously degraded sections, ensure water drains properly around the posts, and trim any sprouting branches if you used green wood. If you notice the weave loosening, you can often tighten it by gently pushing down on the top branches. You can also apply a natural wood preservative every two to three years to extend the fence's lifespan.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.
