"We were very impressed with this company and would highly recommend them for your painting needs. Their representative Doug was very knowledgeable and very interactive with discussing our needs. Their design services with Jamie helped us with our colors. Her help was priceless. Baku and his painting crew was wonderful and took their time to obtain beautiful results. All our stained woodwork was painted white which is no easy task and looks beautiful. Our kitchen cabinets were painted by Ivan and the results transformed our kitchen. Absolutely beautiful finish. All their employees were very polite, knowledgeable and professional. Their price was comparable to other quotes we obtained. We would definitely use this company again."

"Splash of Colors painted the interior and exterior of my house back in 2008. Wally did a superior job so there was no question that I would call him back again for my current painting needs. I sincerely appreciate his prompt and professional service and I highly recommend him! Splash of Colors is the BEST!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

Staining pressure-treated wood is a recommended practice. While inherently resilient, it's not impervious to moisture and UV exposure. Staining treated wood is feasible and recommended for enhanced protection and longevity. Applying stain and sealant safeguards against degradation, prolonging its life span. These measures shield the wood from environmental threats while augmenting its aesthetic appeal, ensuring your investment endures the test of time.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

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.

The best time to stain a fence is when the weather is dry and temperatures are between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Late spring, early summer, and fall are typically the best seasons for this project. You should avoid staining during very hot weather, like in the middle of summer, or when it is raining. Heat and moisture can cause the stain to dry unevenly. Likewise, if it's too cold, such as in winter or early spring, the stain may not be able to dry fully. Before you start, check the forecast to ensure there will be no rain and low humidity for at least a few days.
