"Our experience with THAT 1 PAINTER was excellent! We needed the wrought iron railing on the front and back of our townhome to be resurfaced and painted They were quick to give us an estimate; the price was fair and reasonable; they scheduled the work to be done within a week of receiving the estimate; and they arrived on time as promised! We were very pleased with the quality of work performed and will definitely call on them again for any future painting needs!"

"Rogelio Rodas and his team are extremely punctual, professional and meticulous about their work. I hired them to pressure wash my townhome (corner unit) and the deck. They then sanded and stained the deck, replaced all of rotted wood trim and parts of the wood garage door, and painted all exterior trim (including windows) and the front door. The house looks great and I’ve received many compliments from neighbors. I will definitely rehire Rogelio and his team."

"Very messy painters, seemed like someone who was taken off the street to paint. Paint splatters on floors. Painted deck, do not believe they used the amount of the pre paint solution I had bought and did not do two coats, I bought 2 gallons of deck paint from sherwin williams and they didnt even use one whole gallon, did not paint one of the deck post that was in the ground. Paint didnt even last through one summer, told owner and said he would be back in late spring (2016) to remain the deck, never saw them again."

"Craig Merrill and his team were a great pleasure to work with. Craig was very responsive and accommodating to my schedule. He first came out to measure the home, provided a quote, and facilitated a color consultation from Patricia, his wife and business partner. She helped me decide on neutral colors for the home, including the use of accent walls. She took my current and future needs into consideration and was very attentive to all my verbal and non-verbal cues regarding my conservative paint color preferences. Craig was willing to use any brand of paint I preferred, but did provide recommendations that already matched my paint preferences.
On the day of the scheduled paint job, a crew of approximately 8 painters arrived promptly and began working on our home. We spent the weekend before organizing some of our mess, or consolidating items to the center of each room, but I am confident that the crew would have helped us with anything we did not prep ahead of time. They moved furniture, removed paintings, mirrors, and wall decorations with ease, and covered all of our belongings for protection. The crew worked diligently and professionally throughout the day. They did tape some baseboards and wainscoting, but I was incredibly surprised and impressed with the steady hand of the painters that did not require tape. I cannot rave more about the quality of work that they performed in one day. They filled holes and sanded and painted for approximately 10-11 hours. At the end of the day, we only had 2 bathrooms left to be painted, though they had been prepped by the paint team. They came back at a time convenient for us a few days later and finished the job with 2 crew members. All team members were very professional and pleasant. They fixed cracks in our ceiling, and covered water leakage marks on two other bedroom ceilings. Craig and/or the project manager, Kyle, came to my townhouse on both days of painting and performed quality control checks and to see if there were any concerns.
I was very pleased with every step of the process from beginning to end. I mentioned my Angie's List membership on the day of the paint job, completely forgetting to mention it early on when we were given a price quote. Craig happily obliged to honor the discount associated with an Angie's List membership, solidifying my appreciation for his business. He and his team aim to please and I highly recommend his business to friends, family, and neighbors.

"Had them come to do some interior painting for our home. Did get an estimate from another company and Pint the DMV was less by a significant margin. Unfortunately the week of our appointment there was heavy rain in the area which caused our project start date to move back 3 days however Steve let me know early in the week and I was able to accomodate without any issues. On the day of the project, they arrived on time. Their prepwork was perfect, no extra pain on the carpet or trim. We had them paint 3 bedrooms, kitchen, living, and family room (walls only) before we moved into a new home. End results looked great! They were even able to patch up a hole in the wall were the previous owners and run cables through. All in all, the wife and I were extremely happy with the end result. I anticipate calling them in spring for some more work (likely exterior/deck staining) and maybe another bedroom. Thank you."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

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. 

The best exterior paint for the job of painting your front porch depends on the material you’ll be painting. Acrylic paint is often recommended for a wooden porch as it’s durable and easy to apply. If your porch is made of concrete, you’ll need to find a formula suited to that material.

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

If your biggest concern is making sure your deck doesn’t show dirt, opt for a darker neutral color that blends in well with your surrounding landscape. A rich brown or dark grey are both good options that work with a variety of house colors. A high-quality acrylic paint is easy to clean and maintain, so it might be worth spending the money on.
