"I hired Potts to do some repainting for exterior doors that were looking worn out, including two that the builders had painted with interior paint and that were in terrible condition. Rob, the owner, kept right on schedule. He and his crew were punctual and professional, and they got the job done with great communication. I will keep them in mind for future projects!"

"I am so pleased with my experience with Hedlund Painting. I contacted Zakary to repair trim / banister damage from an anxious puppy, as well as paint my kitchen cabinets and walls. I could not be happier with the result. Micah, the project manager, was on-time, detail-oriented, and caring in my home. I really appreciated how he stayed on top of the project, and that the project completed on time. I also want to credit the MASTERFUL painter/carpenter, Jesus, who painted our kitchen to PERFECTION and MASTERFULLY repaired our trim / banisters. I could not be happier with the outcome. Jesus was meticulous, skilled, polite, on-time, and a general delight to have in our home. I could not recommend Zakary, Micah, and Jesus enough - I will definitely be reaching out to Hedlund again for future home projects."

"Mario prepped the house and showed up when he said he would be here. The painting was done as organized and methodical as I would have imagined. It was just himself and another person, and it looks great. I will be hiring them again to do my interior. Thank you Mario."

"At first I thought the job was going pretty well. The guys were professional and seemed pretty good. Unfortunately at the tail end of our job, the weather started turning. Mornings were cool and wet, and this was the time that our porch handrails and bannisters were done. Within three months they started peeling. So the next summer I asked Clinton to come back out and fix them as part of the warranty work. He agreed to do so, but never fit me in. The second winter we got significant peeling (50+ linear feet). I emailed Clinton in the spring again asking him to come out. He again agreed, but never fit me in. This spring (year 3) I asked him to come fix them as well as bid on additional work. He set up an appt with me and never showed. He did email later apologizing and saying he had been in an accident. I said I understood, but unfortunately I never heard from him again. I finally gave up and decided to sand and repaint my handrails myself. It's a shame because I would have loved to have him come paint my interior soon, but I can't trust him to honor his work. I feel I have been amply patient and given him multiple chances to correct this. Unfortunately I can't in good conscience recommend him because of this."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

Pricing depends on prep work, paint/stain choice, area size, scaffolding needs, and detailed trim inclusions like precision-balanced windowsills.

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

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. 

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.
