"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."

Customers say: Quality work

"Paint. Exterior of house and detached garage. Very thorough pressure wash, scraping, caulking, priming and 2 coats of spray paint on hardi board siding. I was impressed with their attention to detail of all their preparation before painting. Their price was reasonable for all they did. Very satisfied and happy customer and will call them again on my next paint project. The quality of workmanship was outstanding."

"Justin runs the show and is professional, polite and informative. Daniel, the painter, and his team were awesome. The quality of the paint was excellent as was his painting techniques and attention to detail. He caulked all cracks and even identified his own areas for touch up. Sergi (sp?) did the siding to the house, dry rot repair and a little fence work. Again, top notch. All siding and repairs were detailed, accurate and all caulking was excellent. All parties really ensured that no corners were cut! Very worth the price. The quality of work far surpasses the construction company that built the house. I will use them again for sure."

"Vadim and his crew love their job and they are great at it. They painted our whole house and deck in 3 days including all prep. They filled all the cracks in the wood and the finished job looks fantastic. It sets our house apart from all others on the street. Competitive price but a bargain for the high quality job they did."

"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

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.

Aftercare includes routine cleaning, checking for water repellency, and promptly addressing any chips or peels, maintaining the deck's appearance and functionality.

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint.
