"Carlos and his team at Distinctive Enterprises & Painting, LLC recently painted the exterior and interior of our home, along with staining our deck railing and did an incredible job! They provided a thorough estimate and I was able to get all my questions answered along the way. Carlos was incredibly prompt and provided excellent communication the entire way. Prices were incredibly fair and the attention to detail he and his crew put in was evident. I would highly recommend the team at Distinctive Enterprises & Painting, LLC for any of your painting/staining needs! Thank you Carlos and team!"

"Sunshine did an excellent job.   The owner, Paul, gave us a contract form that was very thorough and well written.  It was the best contract form that we received from any of the companies that gave us bids.    We had some specific requests and Paul was very happy to accommodate our requests and to add those items to the contract.  We had a trip planned, and Paul managed to schedule to job to be completed before our trip.  Paul did the power washing.  He was very thorough and careful.  We have a lot of plantings around the house and he was careful to protect them.  The power washing was done in just a few hours.  Then the house was allowed to dry for two days, and it was painted over the space of three days. Paolo and Odi did the painting.  We liked them very much and were very impressed with their work.  They  were very careful in masking before painting.  Paolo did the spray painting, and he is expert at it.  There were no drips and no spatters on the decks.  Odi did the trim painting by hand, and did a beautiful job.  They did a thorough job of clean up.  They were always polite, cooperative, timely and professional.   The only issue we had with Sunshine is that the owner is not always prompt in returning phone calls.  We mentioned that to him, and he was more responsive after that.  We love the way the house looks.  This was the easiest, more problem free house painting we have ever lived through.  It was a pleasure to watch the job go so smoothly.

"Sunshine Painting was hired to paint our house and re-finish the front door. Paul was a delight to work with. He is incredibly efficient and thorough in his work. His estimate was accurate and his work excellent. Paul finished the job in a week and cleaned up after himself beautifully. I would hire this company again without question. Hands down the best house painting experience we have ever had. It looks beautiful!!"

Customers say: True professional

"From working with Patty on the phone scheduling our job during Covid-19 to working with Shad and his crew, everyone has been exceptional and pleasant! On top of that, our home was treated with care as if it were their own. From power washing, caulking, to painting and staining, they took extreme care to not disturb our many plants or get paint/stain on anything other than where it belonged. I can not say enough about the friendliness and professionalism shown by the entire crew. Without a doubt, we would hire them again and highly recommend them for any paint work needed to be done, Several of our neighbors asked for business cards and we won't be surprised to see 5 Star in our neighborhood painting more homes!"

"The company is certified to deal with lead paint. They did an excellent job. with a 3 color Victorian home in NE. They have a good guarantee and came back and fixed a couple areas the following year. They also do pressure washing and did an excellent job on soft wood(cedar) decking and pavement."

"We requested quotes from four contractors to paint our single-level 1,300 square foot house and 8'x12' shed. Not only was Ric the only one to respond, but he emailed us less than an hour after we requested quotes and came over that same day...and it was on a Sunday. Talk about a great first impression! He sent his quote the very next day, and it was about what we expected to pay. We are very happy with the work that Ric and his crew did. Ric is very personable and professional. He listened to what we had to say, and made some recommendations such as caulking the siding where necessary, which we agreed to have him do. His crew came over a couple of days before they were scheduled to start work to pressure-wash our house and shed. The actual painting took only two days, and there is absolutely no overspray or paint drips on the concrete or on our deck. They cleaned up after themselves and the house looks brand new. We've already referred them to two friends who are thinking about having their houses painted next year."

"Vadim and Skavic take great pride in their work and are very proffessional. We had two very large Exterior Wood doors restored and re-stained. They communicated every step of the process well and clearly took a vested interest in the final result. They were incredibly respectful of our time and property and I would highly recommend them."

"Zachary responded to our request for a quote promptly and came out personally to take a look at what needed to be painted. He gave us a reasonable quote with no hidden fees. He and his assistant showed up a few minutes early on the agreed upon date with all needed supplies. They moved and draped furniture along with covering the flooring and carpet to prevent any damage. They were extremely neat and careful with everything. Zachary and his assistant worked together very professionally and did a beautiful job! When they were finished we were asked to come look at their work making sure that we were pleased before they took away all the protective draping and runners. We are so pleased with the workmanship and professionalism. We happily recommend Mi Caza LLC!"

"Bruce and Seth did an excellent job painting my house from prep to paint to clean-up. They not only paint, but do needed repairs as part of the prep work. Most painters just paint and move on. Bruce gives a warranty on his work, and his price is very reasonable. I plan on hiring them next year to paint another house. I recommend using Bruce W. Nichols Painting whole heartedly.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the color of the existing siding or walls. Most professionals offer this service to ensure the repaired area blends in seamlessly.
