Customers say: Quality work

"Roman did a great job painting our house. We needed a lot of "touch up" painting due to contractor work that damaged our siding. Roman caulked everything, painted it, and took time to make sure it all looks great. We ended up having to paint a much larger section because the pain had faded. But Roman figured out how to solve that problem and it looks really good. It took longer than he had expected, but he stuck to his original quote. I'd highly recommend Roman."

"Christian and Nicolas did a very lovely, precise painting of my precarious interior stairwell area. They chose high quality paint that covered well, there were no drips left over, and they did a great job cleaning up afterward. Their mood was happy and they were courteous and professional to work with."

"We bought our first house and were looking for an interior repaint. That being said, I didn't know much about paint. Vadim, with YOUR PAINTING EXPERT, couldn't have been more helpful! I spoke with several larger companies, and Vadim took the time to educate us about all the different types of products and options that we have available for the project. He also reassured us of the importance of preparing the surfaces for a quality finish product. We are glad that we chose to hire YOUR PAINTING Expert."

"I had JA paint the outside of my house and restain a large deck. They pressure wased everything and let it dry, then did whatever sanding, scraping and caulking required to get everything ready for the paint/stain. The house and trim got two coats of paint and the deck got two coats of stain. absolutely no mess when they finished! They protected the plants and adjacent structures from any overspray. The house and deck look great. I've gotten comments from the neighbors about how nice it looks! Thanks JA."

"I was very impressed with Brandye’s attention to detail. I knew that our home needed a heavy spring cleaning and she took it on. After the first clean she was not satisfied that she didn’t get to everything. She asked to return the next day to finish. I am so happy that they came back. My home smelled so clean and I really did have sparkling sinks! Cleantastic is very accommodating and we now have our cleaning on a set schedule. Thank you Brandye and crew for taking on the cleaning and making our home easily to manage."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

Ideally, it's best to stain your dock once per year. Applying stain doesn't just keep it looking nice and new; it also helps extend the dock’s lifespan. Since you want to ensure water levels are at their lowest, it's best to have this project done by a professional dock repair service in the cooler autumn or early winter months. 

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

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.
