"These guys are great! I have a few cabinet doors that needed to be painted to finish up a kitchen cabinet refacing project we started before we moved into our condo. We reached out to multiple people to get a quote for painting just a few cabinet doors. We were on a budget, and I didn't think we'd be able to get the work done until we could save up more, but these guys are so nice that they offered to work with us on our budget - it truly felt like a Christmas miracle (I may have teared up, it was so kind)! They did a great job painting the cabinets and turned them around in just a couple of days, even though I told them they could take their time. In the future, we hope to repaint all the walls in our home, and I will reach out to Color Cat Painting when the time comes!"

Customers say: True professional

"The crew started with a large 2-story 1975 wood house that had been badly scrapped & painted multiple times. Mario arranged for a skilled carpenter to re-build & replace rotten wood. His crew worked tirelessly to sand, fill and paint with a white semigloss paint. White and semigloss showed every imperfection. The crew went back to re-sand and re-paint spots. They repaired the stuccoed chimney. It was a labor intense project. Today, the house looks beautiful. Mario gently listened and then executed my detailed request. Mario is professional and easy to work with."

"We recently purchased our house knowing it needed to be repainted. I began looking for painters in June and schedule 3 estimates for end of June/early July. Scott was my third estimate. I had an appointment for Monday, July 3 but no one showed up. When I called to ask, Scott offered to come out on July 4. I took this as a good sign for customer service and responsiveness. Although his was one of the higher bids, I chose Emerald Coats for several reasons: Scott's willingness to take time out of his holiday to give an estimate Very favorable reviews and status on Angie's List Scott's extensive experience and knowledge of paint and wood Expected project timeline and completion by end of August. This summer we also had our deck replaced to fix a hazardous situation caused by poor construction quality (a process that only started after 8 months waiting on a permit from the city). Due to delivery lead time required to get the decking material, we knew there would be a ~2 week break during construction. Our hope was to have the house painted during this window to make everything as efficient as possible. When I brought this up with Scott, I was told this wouldn't be a problem and, if the timing didn't work out, the two crews would be able to work around each other without incident. Scott informed me his crew had several jobs ahead of ours so there might be a delay. As August rolled around, I asked for an update on when pressure washing and painting, I consistently got an answer that it would start in the next week or so. After the third time I mentioned that we were coming up on the end of our window for painting without the construction crew at the house. Finally, his crew came out to pressure wash with the expectation of getting started early the next week (allowing time for the house to dry). The construction crew was back when they came to paint, so Scott's crew started priming on the opposite side of the house. At first this arrangement was fine, but once the crew started encroaching on the construction area, difficulties arose. First, the crews had a very hard time working in the same location. We received calls independently from both Scott and the construction company owner informing us of issues related to the other crew. My wife and I each had to intervene on separate occasions to ensure ease tensions and smooth over the relationship. Second (and this was a major reason we hoped to have painting done before the new deck was installed), overspray and paint splatter occurred several times, causing the construction crew to have to clean up and in one instance replace several already installed planks. Third, there were a couple places where siding had been removed to install decking and support. I confirmed with Scott that he or his crew could come back to paint those once they were put back on. Scott asked that the boards be primed prior to his coming back. The construction crew used the remaining primer to do what they could on the new siding but what was left did not cover all the wood. Consequently, this led to further delays as we did not understand priming and painting could not occur on the same day. Ultimately, the house was painted and the quality of work done by Scott’s crew was generally very high. We are happy with the final product. Unfortunately, an estimated one week project took nearly a month and required intervention on the part of myself or my wife at nearly every turn."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.

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. 

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.
