"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."

"I hired Hello Painting to repaint 1 side of my house that the sun had beat up and replace the cedar siding as needed. Their bid included details of the proposed work including the repair work rate. This bid was comparable with another bid from an Angie-provided vendor. Hello Painting uses its customer contact software to establish connections and communicate about progress. My questions were answered promptly. Workers arrived at the scheduled times, were courteous, and respectful of the property. The pressure washing revealed the amount of repair that would be needed; I was promptly informed of the amount it would be and asked to review the charges before the work was performed. The repair and painting were completed in 1 long day. The awning hardware that was removed by the worker was reinstalled. The cleanup was done well and the remaining paint was left as I requested. The method used for replacing rotten cedar siding involved cutting out sections of boards and not necessarily replacing the entire plank. The result is a somewhat uneven look as the boards butted together do not always meet precisely. The edges are well-sealed however. This is not a side of the house anyone will spend time looking at, but I would advise expressing your expectations if your project needs this type of work."

"Christian and Nico were very professional and courteous. They worked out an awesome price as I wanted pressure washing done and upgraded paint. They did a phenomenal job and our house looks great. They were under other estimates I received and had our 1800 sf house done in less than a day and half. Iâ ve received several good comments from neighbors and already gave 2 referrals. AWESOME job ! Would definitely hire again."

"Wow, what can we say other than fantastic paint professionals. Hard workers, clean and courteous. Worked long hours and paid attention to all the details. Provided a very competitive bid, made recommendations on color choices and we are certainly glad we chose Vadim and David to take care of our home project. It is truly a showcase and have already received numerous compliments about their work ethic and how it looks from our neighbors on the island. We would highly recommend them to take care of your job. You will not be disappointed. Laurie and Randie in Spanaway."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

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 opposite is actually true: Wood stains tend to appear lighter when they’re fully dry. However, stains may darken as they weather and oxidize with age. Stains might also darken on surfaces left in direct sunlight, as UV rays can break down pigment particles and cause them to darken over time.
