"Very thorough during the bid process to determine scope of work. Happy they used Sherwin Williams super paint. They completed a 1100 sq ft ranch with 2 coats in a day. Also helped me scrape and paint a garage in another day. Good site cleanup."

"Bob and his crew were great and easy to work with. In addition to painting, they added railing to my porch, replaced some rotting boards, and trimmed some trees. To my surprise they also threw in a power wash to my deck that was desperately needed. Iâ m thrilled with their work."

"The process was pretty seamless and straightforward. The only issue was that the only person we could verbally communicate with was the site leader who did not stay onsite. The painters themselves did not speak English and communicating as a mime was not very efficient....Overall the job was done and done well. Would still consider them again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it's a good idea to sand the wall with fine-grit sandpaper after spackling, especially if you plan on painting. You can do this by hand or using a sander, but the idea is to ensure the spackle is flush with the wall. Sanding will give your wall a smooth, uniform finish and help your paint and wallpaper stay put.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.
