"I have used Manor Works multiple times for indoor and exterior painting. This time they refreshed my deck, which was in pretty bad shape, with a waterproof stain and sealant. Victor gave me a very reasonable estimate with options. Esmerelda and her crew did an outstanding job. She kept me apprised of everything they were doing and why. Her team was prompt, professional, and hard working. Esmerelda went out of her way to make sure the paint/stain matched my current color, which I had really wanted. I've always been happy with the various Manor Works teams and will continue to use them for all my painting needs."

"Our bathroom was remodeled down to the studs! The bathroom had new dry wall and the new paint tied everything together! (Used two different colors for the walls and ceiling for a custom touch). Our interior doors were also replaced with new door frames/molding. The painting for the new doors, trim, and surrounding drywall repair looked like a magazine when the work was completed. The team was a pleasure to work with, stayed on their timeline, and meticulously cleaned after their days work. We highly recommend Gibbs painting for all your home projects!"

"Marvin and his paint crew did an outstanding job painting the front and back of my house! As requested, they also caulked around the windows and painted my front door with the paint color I provided. Marvin even stopped in and touched a couple areas that required additional paint. Overall, I am happy with the paint project results on the front and back of my house. I would definitely recommend Paint the DMV to anyone needing their painting projects completed."

Painting questions, answered by experts

If your cedar fence is new, don’t delay. Unlike treated pine, you don’t need to wait months for the wood to dry out for it to accept stain. With cedar, the sooner, the better. Seal cedar within two weeks of installation to prevent the sun from fading its red color.

You should inspect the area regularly for rust, clean it with a wire brush, repaint it every few years, and apply a protective sealant to prevent corrosion.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

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.

The process of painting or staining a fence typically takes between one and five days. The total duration depends on factors like the size of the fence, weather conditions, and necessary drying times. A significant portion of this time is for drying, as stain won't properly absorb into wet wood. You should wait 24 hours to stain a fence after washing it and allow 12 to 24 hours of drying time between each coat. The active work time is generally about one hour for every 10 to 20 linear feet of fencing.
