"Cesar was great to work this. Came out immediately and provided a good quote. His crew was able to come out the next day. Power washed the fence, replaced some damaged boards and rebuilt the gates. Restained everything, the fence looks great. Cesar walked through with me ensuring I was satisfied."

"Thomas did an excellent job in sanding, staining , and then three coats of sealer on our front door. He took time making sure that each stage was perfect. You don’t get this type of workmanship these days.. I have no hesitation in recommending him and will choose him whenever I have another project."

"Texas heritage painting did an amazing job painting our home. They painted several rooms and custom stained our new cabinets. Crew was friendly, professional, and very efficient. And it was amazing have the owner of the company as our main point of contact the whole project. Will use them as our dedicated paint crew for everything."

"We recently completed a whole home interior paint projects (3/2 1800 sq ft). Ivan, our project manager, walked the house with me and provided a fully detailed, written estimate afterwards. We chose this company due to the competitive pricing (not the cheapest or most expensive), online reviews (from several sources) and that they have employees (which makes the bid a bit higher but worth it). They arrived on time (every day) with the correct paint. We were fortunate to have a 5-man team who worked hard, start to finish, each day (no messing around, too many breaks etc). They covered everything appropriately and none of our floors or personal items were damaged or accidentally painted. When they had to move our larger antiques, bed, electronics, they were careful. They staged their materials appropriately in the rooms (if you have a larger family than our 2-person household and need to live in while doing it, make sure that's known so they'll clean up every night or 'camp out' with your kids and make it fun). They were very accommodating of my request to repaint certain sections up to three times (paint samples were bleeding through). They really seemed like they wanted me to be happy. Happy I was. Because I could stay home while they were working, I could answer questions if needed, but they went to work and so did I. We had little interaction and that was fine. We walked through each day to check progress. They let me blue tape areas to tackle the next day. At the end we did a final walk through and it was a beautiful project. They even took the mirrors off the wall to paint behind them! I highly recommend and may hire them to paint our garage when we move in a few years."

Deck Staining FAQs, 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.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

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.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

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.
