"We have had the exterior of our house painted/stained numerous times over the past 35 years, but no one has done such a phenomenal job like Rainbow Painting. I can not recommend this company enough as they were absolutely incredible. This family owned company was detail-oriented, friendly, exceptionally thorough, and took extreme pride in the quality of their work. Although they were the least expensive of any of the quotes we received (by $2,000), they went above and beyond our expectations. They were at our house promptly each morning and painted our house as if it were their own. They were dedicated, conscientious and exceptionally responsive to all our questions. They masked off, draped, and/or covered the areas not to be stained, and then thoroughly cleaned up upon completion. They even cleaned the exterior of all our windows. They provided suggestions, recommendations, and when they were done, our house looked as though it was brand new again. I usually never leave a review, but I was so impressed with Rainbow Painting that I would hire them again in an instant for any future work (like interior painting. Note that I am not personally affiliated with them, nor compensated in any way. I rate them 5+ out of 5 stars."

Customers say: True professional

"I highly recommend 1451 Dale Painting. I obtained bids from 3 other painting companies during the process and they ended up with the best bid. Martin and his employees were on time every day and even worked around our schedule to get our house finished. They used quality paint, 2 coats, and covered up everything so there were no paint spills etc. Every room turned out great and when we have guests over to our new house, they always compliment the painting job that was done in each room."

"I used this company for four different times and they always made a excellent job, plus they are very clean. The last ones was for my fence and unfortunately I had some issues with my neighbor but, because the professionalism and the support this company gave to me, I was able to complete the stain and my fence and now it looks great. I highly recommend this company."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s a good idea to sand your porch before painting. This will remove loose or chipped paint and debris, and give you a cleaner surface so that your new paint goes on smoothly. But if the existing surface is in good condition, it’s not necessary to sand your porch before you paint.

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

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. 

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat.
