"Culver's painting did a great job. They had the fence completed in one day with a crew of 4. We needed them to come back to do some touch up staining that they had missed, and they were back within a week to complete the job. I would definitely hire them again."

"This is a family business. I hired them to paint the exterior and interior of my house. They also stained a large deck, a sliding glass door, and new kitchen cabinets. They were competent, straightforward, and flexible with our schedule. I'll remember them the next time I need painting and staining work."

"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!"

"Noah’s work was excellent. He was careful, thorough and conscientious. His painting of our house was perfectly done. He went above and beyond and repaired some damage done to joists and sills, etc. He’s a real find and we’re sure to call him again for repairs and other projects. We’ve recommended him to our friends."

"We were very happy with the work of DG Paint & Reno in painting our dining room, foyer, and guest bathroom. The double coat of paint looks like new. David talked with us during the two days of the project, consulting with us about color ideas and detailing decisions. We thought the cost was very reasonable as well. We hope to work with D&G in the spring for the next phase of our updates!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

We don’t recommend it. A wired brush or a brush with metal bristles damages concrete and asphalt during the stain removal process. For the best results, stick to nylon stiff enough to do the job but gentle enough to keep from scratching the driveway. For extra caution, skip the brush entirely and use towels.

A dry lawn is easier to edge than a wet one. When your ground is wet, your blades will likely clump together, making a seemingly even cut while wet, but an uneven disaster when dried. Also, a wet lawn can impact your blade's performance and cause mud to kick up, resulting in a messy finish.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.
