"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 am going to give a 5 star rating, and we did not even hire him for the job. Our decision was almost entirely based on timing issues. However, of the companies we contacted, Brett's customer care was by far the most efficient. His communication was clear, and his response times were top notch!"

"The people at Classic Finishes were professional and flexible. I had a short time frame to get my new home painted after the closing, but before moving in, and the were able to accommodate that. They were friendly and helpful, and their work was not only quick, but more importantly, it was very well done! I couldnâ t be happier!"

"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"

"I had my barn power wash, sand, and painted, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From the very beginning, they were professional, punctual, and extremely knowledgeable. He took the time to carefully sand down the rough and weathered areas. The paint job was excellent . The barn looks brand better than I ever imagined. What really stood out to me was how communicative and helpful he wasthroughout the entire process. Every question I had was answered with patience and clarity, and I always felt informed and confident in the work being done. If you’re looking for someone who takes pride in their work and truly cares about customer satisfaction, I highly recommend!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

The plastic in composite decking boards protects them enough that you do not need to paint them to prevent warping. In fact, painting composite decking voids the warranty of some manufacturers. Painting can also increase maintenance on the deck, as you must paint regularly to keep it looking its best.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.

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.
