"Pressure washing went fine (missed a section). Painting ok but did not prep like promised. Re-caulking was not done. Screw holes left by previous gutters etc. were not filled but just painted over. Contract said 2 coats of paint but only got one (no back roll but was not in contract). No crew but only 1 man (he was fast - painted house and trim in 2 days). House was decent but trim was a bit sloppy (not clean lines, trim paint drops on deck steps etc.). All in all, B- to B."

"Super happy with Alex. He not only did great, detailed work on exterior house painting, but he also identified minor repairs needed and did them. He provided good guidance on paint quality differences, gave opinions on what to paint differently (style). He finished right on schedule and according to estimate, offered to come do any touch-ups if I find something wrong later, and was very conscientious about protecting property and clean-up, as if it were his own house. Plan to use him for my next project for sure."

"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."

"I don’t normally write reviews, but after dealing with K&D painting I found it necessary. What can I say about David and the team from K&D, they were absolutely FANTASTIC. I requested a quote and upon arrival, David and I walked the house, quoted me a very fair price and assured me that he would correct all the flaws on the house and it would be the best paint job ever. True to his word, the K&D team did an exceptional job and were a real pleasure to work with. The house looks terrific and all flaws were corrected. They even took the time to remove every down spout and paint behind them because they didn’t like the way it looked. The neighbors are giving me compliments and I couldn’t be more pleased. If you need your house painted, hire K&D! They are professional, polite and he and his team had a great sense of humor. Don B"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

Various kinds of substances and deck preservatives act as protective coatings for wood to prevent rot, which is caused by water getting into the wood and creating cracks and splits. Stains, paints, and sealants are the three best options to protect your wood, but there are also oils, varnishes, and waxes available. You’ll need to reapply sealant at least once per year, and you should inspect your wood deck regularly to look for signs of damage or general wear and tear.

Limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces if you apply them correctly. Use on non-suitable surfaces can cause issues. For instance, applying limewash or whitewash to surfaces with existing sealants or incompatible materials may lead to poor adhesion or flaking. Also, harsh cleaning agents on limewashed or whitewashed surfaces can damage the finish. Proper preparation, application, and maintenance ensure that limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces.

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.

Costs depend on coating type, labor, site preparation, and required finishes.
