"Needed to sand and stain a mid-century style wood ceiling on a short timeline due to other work scheduled immediately after the project. Rubumco did an excellent job of prepping all the rooms, carefully protecting the existing painting walls, before they carefully sanded with dust collection equipment to keep everything clean. They did a great job of touching up ceiling beams and making crisp paint lines to make the ceiling really pop. Will definitely use Rubumco in the future for other paint work."

"My new favorite contractor in Bellingham. Actually, I think the only one I've liked this much to even have a favorite. True pros, very responsive and communicative, plus super nice to deal with. They painted the inside of our house from ceiling to floor and the results were just amazing. Every day that I came to check on the progress, they surprised me with how detailed they were. We had discussed clean seam lines; they gave us clean seam lines. I asked them to please not paint over the brand new hardware; no painted over hardware. I asked to please protect the wood floors; all floors were covered. I emailed my list of selected paint colors, accents and where they go, and they actually kept the list and followed through on itâ  AND they cleaned up their own mess. I list all this to show how detailed and caring they are about your property, which is not a common trait with all contractors. Kudos to the Evergreen team and thank you so much for contributing to our home looking so awesome!"

"Trim Line Painting quickly responded to my request for External House Painting quote. I selected them (from multiple quotes) because they had experience with staining a cedar structure, their price was fair, they provided references and photos of previous clients. Glen (owner), was very good about letting me know the scheduling of my project and when he would be on site. This was a great experience and I highly recommend your consider Trim Line Painting for your next project!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

You can only change your neighbor's fence with their permission. A neighbor's fence is their property, and altering it without their consent could constitute trespassing or property damage, which may have legal consequences. If you have concerns or disagreements about your neighbor's fence, communicate with them openly and try to reach a mutually agreeable solution. If you believe the fence violates local zoning laws or property regulations, consult with local authorities or seek legal advice to address the issue through proper channels. 

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.
