"We had an excellent experience. Ken was easy to deal with, they were prompt, they cleaned up, they problem solved when unexpected issues came up, they talked to us about changes and made wonderful suggestions. He was the best contractor I have hired in the last 7 years."

"We just had two different jobs done on our home by 5 Star Painting! We are thrilled to have found this company. We have our own home, plus 5 rent homes.v It has always been a challenge finding painters that are any good to maintain all of our homes. Or to show up when they say, etc. Then I found 5 Star on Home Advisor. Wendy came out first, viewed the job, then gave us a price. We agreed. We liked that they are insured and bonded. Their ad states they are always on time, never ask for a penny up front, and never up their bid. Everything they say in their ad is true! They showed up each day when they said they would be there. The work is beautiful, and done with such care and attention to detail. We had them do a second job besides painting the home, and that was to restain and renew our deck railings, Absolutely beautiful job! Thank you to the owners, Wendy and James. Also, kudos to all of the workers who were so polite, excellent workers, and did such a beautiful job. WE have more jobs on our home and on our rent homes for them. Wendy and James are the best! So happy to have found some painters that we can rely on. We frequently need painting work, and now we have an excellent, trustworthy company we can rely on! Thank you, again, to 5 Star Painting. We are so pleased to have found you! I will post further reviews as we have more work done!!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat. 

Yes, beginners can use a paint sprayer, but there is a learning curve. It's important to go slowly, read the instructions thoroughly, and spend some time learning the technique. Watching tutorial videos for your specific paint sprayer model can be very helpful. Before starting your main project, practice on a scrap surface to get used to the sprayer and avoid common issues like overspraying, which can cause drips, bubbles, and other imperfections. For safety, always wear a mask and gloves, and be careful not to touch the sprayer's tip when it's in use, particularly with high-powered airless sprayers.

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.
