"Marvin and his team did an amazing job. They were professional, prompt, and did an excellent job repairing drywall and painting. They were exceptionally neat and clean. We had to do nothing after they were finished. We look forward to them painting several other rooms in our house!"

"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 was absolutely fantastic on this project. If I could give him more than 5 stars I would! He's extremely responsive to queries, very courteous, friendly and truly cares about doing a good job. I hired his company to plaster multiple cracks in the ceilings and paint the entire basement (5 areas total) -- ceilings, walls, trim, doors and baseboards. He provided the paint for the ceiling and trim, while I provided the paint for the walls. We started the project on a Wednesday so we'd have Friday as a third day for the project if needed, but Elmer and his crew finished within two days -- working 12 hours each day! Even though I'm changing the carpet in the basement, they took care to cover it up and clean up after themselves. They also laid down drop cloths across my hardwood floors leading to the basement steps to protect it. The basement looks like it belongs in a brand new house. The walls and ceilings look incredible! They caulked and sealed all the gaps between the trim and the walls, and respected my wishes to remove all light fixtures and switch plates to paint behind them. I have two more floors to go and definitely plan to call Elmer when I've saved up to move forward. Highly recommend hiring EDE Painting for your project!"

"The paint crew was punctual, professional, and painted my homes interior and exterior beautifully. I would absolutely recommend A&R Home Improvements for any home painting jobs and I myself plan on hiring them again for future home improvement work."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can help your wood fence last 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You’ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.

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.

You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.  

An exterior paint job typically lasts between 5 and 10 years, though this can range from 3 to 17 years depending on several factors. The longevity is influenced by the quality of the paint and primer, the quality of the application, the local climate, and the type of surface being painted. For example, paint on wood siding may need to be redone every 3 to 7 years, while painted brick can last up to 17 years. Aluminum siding often needs repainting every 5 years.
