"We are very pleased with the painting project Peters Painting Contractors completed in our older home (it was built in 1947). The crew are skilled craftsmen who were a pleasure to have in our home. They took the time to prep- repairing several areas of plaster ceilings and walls, sanding and cleaning baseboards and taping areas to protect non-painted surfaces. They used quality materials to paint two large rooms, the ceiling in a third room, and lots of trim. The result is beautiful! They completed the job promptly at a reasonable cost. We highly recommend Peters Painting Contractors."

"This is such a great company!!! I am the worst at picking out paint colors and put off getting our great room painted for nearly a year. Alisa was so sweet and patient. She even came over and helped to guide me to the perfect color for our space. I am so grateful!!! The entire team was wonderful! I am very particular about things and I didn’t have a single complaint about the quality of the job. Plus, the company supports many local programs for our community. We will definitely call 5 Star Painting for future projects! (And you should too)"

"Rolando and his team were excellent to work with. Very responsive, professional, and efficient. The work looked great when complete and was reasonably priced for the job. There were a couple areas missed that I didn't catch until after they had left (they were painting a rental unit for me, not my primary residence); I think those were simply a miscommunication, I had no concern that those were intentionally skipped, and they were easy for me to touch up on my own. I would definitely hire them again for future painting projects!"

"A little higher priced, but best quality. Be sure to not mess up the schedule, if there is another contractor on site, the painters will leave the job if the other contractor is in their space, and you may not know it til late in the day."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Deck staining or painting safeguards wood against the elements through its protective layer, enhancing decay resistance, prolonging structural integrity, and improving visual appeal.

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.

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.
