"In short, Joel does excellent work at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend! We hired Joel in conjunction with repairs to an upstairs bathroom. Our plumber needed additional access to the shower plumbing, so had to cut out a section of the plaster wall in the bedroom on the other side of the bathroom. We hired Joel to repair and paint the wall and to paint the bathroom. Joel first scheduled a stop at the house to get paint samples in order to match the existing colors of each room. He then quickly patched the wall one day and came back the next day to paint the entire bedroom wall and the bathroom. The new paint matched the old perfectly and everything looks great! You can't tell where the patch was and he did a really nice job avoiding the wallpaper border at the top of the bedroom wall. The paint in the bathroom also looks fantastic. Joel also cleaned up like a pro - we couldn't even tell he was there. We strongly recommend Joel and will definitely hire him again!"

"Shared with Public - Home Advisor Culver's Painting recommendation Josh and Alex at Culver's Painting were great and easy to work with. We had a husband and wife team, Javi and Griselda, stain our cedar siding and shutters, and they did an excellent job! Absolutely no complaints at all. They were detail oriented and we would highly recommend Culver's if you have any painting project. We love our new look!"

"Nick (Pioneer Painting) did an excellent job painting our new basement rec room. Nick was responsive to all of our questions and he was willing to fit us into his schedule. He was polite, he cleaned up his work area after finishing the job and he did the job for his quote. We would hire him in the future."

"The crew of Devon and Pierce were knowledgeable, pleasant and patient as I interrupted them with questions about the steps in the painting process. That was appreciated as much as the beautiful work completed. Dependable. Would use their service again as well as refer others to them."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

The easiest way to stain a fence depends on your experience and comfort level with the project. Applying stain with an airless sprayer or pump sprayer might get the stain job done faster, but it can be tricky. Paint rollers and stain brushes are slower but simpler for a DIY project.

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.

If you paint a vinyl fence, it will likely stick to it for only a brief amount of time. This is because vinyl is not a porous material, so it's not an ideal surface for holding paint. Initially, paint will stick to your fence, but it will eventually peel off. Applying primer before painting your vinyl fence will help paint last longer. Certain primers are well-suited to vinyl, which means you can paint vinyl siding with the proper preparation.
