"This is the 4th project we've used DaVinci for. Arrived for work exactly as scheduled just like previous times. Quality of work is top notch. Painted interior walls and ceiling perfectly. Painted wood vanity and it turned out better than expected. Helped us match existing paint without sample and it matched perfectly. Service is always very kind and trustworthy. Comes with our highest recommendation!"

"Had new kitchen cabinet doors and drawer fronts supplied by me painted by Culver's painting. Quote was fast, informative and professionally done, appreciated the onsite personal touch. Complementary color design expert was a huge help to us to decide on our final color of the cabinets and kitchen wall, Debra was great. Scheduling was very easy and personable. the cabinet doors and drawer fronts were painted to my expectations and delivered by the actual person who painted them. Overall well done painting experience."

"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."

"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."

Painting questions, answered by experts

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.  

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

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.

Regular cleaning, rust-proof coatings, and checking fasteners help prolong the lifespan.
