"Stephen and Marvin and their crew did an exceptional job from start to finish on our painting project. They are true painting professionals, and not only did they do a quality painting job but the whole experience of clean up and the time it took them to complete the project went very smoothly and at a very reasonable price! Without question we highly recommend Paint the DMV and would definitely use them again….they are the best!"

"Va Painting LLC is an outstanding contractor Abdul Ahmadi was the only company from the list to come out and inspect the job site and define the requirements with me. He gave me a reasonable quote and provided a digital contract at the same time. He prepped the job area to ensure no paint dripped on the rock base of the mailbox podium and mounted the mail box and house numbers. All the HOA requirements were met for street side mailbox appearance and mounting. This is a trust worthy and diligent contractor with great respect for the client. Put VA painting as first to call for any painting job."

"Elmer and his crew are true professionals and do excellent work. They arrived at my house by 7:45 a.m. every day and worked 12-14 hours continuously with only a short lunch break. He finished painting my house in 6 & 1/2 days (estimated time was 7-9 days). They take great care in details and pride in their workmanship. Very respectful and hard-working crew. I have recommended Elmer to several friends and scheduled to have him return in the summer to paint my kitchen cabinets. I would highly recommend this company to other people!"

"Balteza painted my home and stained an extensive deck, retaining wall and railing surrounding the house. They then rebuilt my patio in the back yard as well as the stairs leading to the back of the house on both sides of the house, replacing rotted timber and installing all new stone surfaces. Work quality was excellent."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Most gutter painting pros also specialize in complete home exterior painting. You may save by making your gutter painting part of the cost to paint the exterior of a house in its entirety. Many people have all parts of their home exterior painted simultaneously to keep everything looking equally fresh. Consider having walls, trim, porches, shutters, and doors painted as well.

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

To prevent a fence from becoming dirty, hose it down weekly and after every time you mow the lawn. This will prevent algae from being able to feed on grass clippings. You should also wash your fence once per season and trim plants so they don’t touch it. As a precautionary measure, you can treat your fence with a coating of a mold prevention product.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.
