"Aaron, Nathan, and their crew did a very thorough job with power washing our house and fence, caulking, and prep-work. They did a meticulous job painting the house and staining the fence. The team was costumer focused. We had a very positive experience with Priceless Painting Contractors."

"I can't say enough about Tad. I had a very unique project that I needed done and I couldn't seem to find anyone capable or willing to do the job. A family cabin/hunting shack on a small island in WI. Only way to get there was via boat. The cabin took on lots of damage from a tornado in 2017 and was never fixed correctly so the roof was leaking, boards were rotting, siding was pieced together, deck was rotten, floor was rotten and boards were moldy on the inside. I needed someone that was able to boat in supplies, materials and the river is very shallow at times so it requires a small boat, so lots of trips in and out with materials. I was looking everywhere and somehow found Tad's info but when I saw he was out of Bay City and the boat landing was 40 minutes away, I figured it was too far and didn't contact him. But my search at 11PM on Home Advisor had given Tad my information and the next morning, he called me. He was more than willing to check out the cabin and see if he was willing to take on the work. So, he met me at the boat landing a few weeks later when I could make it down there and he measured everything and said he would have a quote to me the same week, which he did. I didn't know what to expect as far as pricing but I can say for the amount of work he had to do to get materials in and out, it was certainly fair. The work he did was amazing. He replaced all the siding and stained it, put on a new tin roof, trim, new insulation, replaced all the moldy boards inside the cabin, repaired the rotten floor, put in a new floor, replaced the deck and will be back this spring/summer to stain it, fixed the picnic table. He did such a good job, I hired him to fix the boards on my deck in the twin cities and stain my deck which is over an hour from his house. Tad always responded to my emails quickly, my texts quickly and over the course of the months that the project took, I would say I consider Tad a friend. We text about hunting and other things. He is a really good guy, an extremely hard worker and articulate about his work. I intend to hire him again this summer for a couple small projects at the cabin and potentially to replace some flooring in our home. There isn't one thing I asked him if he could do, that he couldn't do and he never complained about any of it. He had to walk his boat up river many times to get through some of the shallow spots in the river. How he did some of the work by himself is beyond me. He had a helper for some of it but most of it he did on his own. I even stayed at the cabin with my 3 boys while he did some of the work and he worked around us, and the cabin is pretty small, 12'x20'. I highly recommend Tad to anyone who is looking to take on a project that they need help with!"

"Tommy and his crew did a great job re-staining our cabin and deck. Tommy communicated throughout the planning and painting process, which was very appreciated. He sent before and after photos to me because I could not be on site to see how it was going. Great experience working with him throughout the process. Highly recommended!"

"Jake was hired by my landlord to paint our entire building, including my restaurant. He did a really good job painting, including realizing there was brick and Foundation damage. He contacted the landlord who contacted the contractor and had another company come out and fix the bricks and Foundation, so he could then finish his painting. He did a very good job and a very thorough job in a quick amount of time so that my restaurant did not have to close down for two many hours or days"

"We are very pleased with the service we received from Adam/Summit Painters. He re-stained the cedar shakes on 3 roof pitches on our house and also the exterior door entry area. He came out to our house the same day I contacted him, provided an estimate the next day, returned my phone calls immediately when I had additional questions and did the job when he said he would and he cleaned up thoroughly when done. We are VERY happy with the results! The house looks great. We will definitely use in the future for additional projects (which we discussed)."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You don’t necessarily have to remove all the old paint before repainting your deck, but it’s best to remove as much as possible to ensure a smooth and long-lasting finish. Prioritize scraping off loose, peeling, or flaking paint, and sand down rough areas to create a smooth surface for the new paint to bond with.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

Beyond liquid rubber, homeowners can use sealants, stains, membranes, or tapes as waterproofing options. Oil-based or water-based sealants soak into the wood, creating a moisture-resistant barrier. Waterproofing stains—available in transparent, semi-transparent, and solid colors—add both protection and style to your deck. For heavy-duty waterproofing, deck membranes and waterproof tapes can be applied under the deck boards to direct water away from the structure below. Whatever method you choose, clean and prep the deck first to ensure the best, longest-lasting results.

Waterproof paint creates a barrier to hold back moisture, but it doesn’t eliminate the source of the water. If you hire a basement waterproofing contractor, many will tell you that waterproof paint is only a temporary solution. On average, you can expect it to last from six months to two years in a wet basement before deteriorating.

If you don’t treat a cedar fence, it will turn from reddish brown to gray over time. You can keep the cedar from graying and retain its attractive, deep red color by sealing your cedar fence with a stain that keeps the wood’s oils in and serves as a barrier against the sun’s UV rays.
