"We wanted to have our house stained and our deck and front porch cleaned and stained. Got 4 bids,3 of which we found on Angie's list. Jerry seemed very knowledgeable and fairly priced, so we went with him. It was a wet spring so we had to wait a bit, but eventually got the job done. Overall, his crew did an okay job on the house part of it. This is why I'm leaving the bad review. We have a 50' deck and a 20' front porch. Both of which, last summer I installed about 100' feet of cable railing, consisting of about 45 black painted stainless steel posts along with the cable that is strung through to make the railing. Along the top of that is 2x6 lumber that was to be stained, along with the surface of the decks. Not only did anyone not think about masking off the cable and posts, but the individual they had do the staining on this, got stain all over not only all the post, but the cables as well. When I saw this and brought it to the attention of the foreperson, nobody seemed to care enough to not only start to clean it off, but even care that much. It was only after texts, and phone calls to Jerry, did anyone try to do anything. Well, they needed an industrial type of aerosol paint remover to clean it. The areas where they could get it off, the removal product damaged the finish, and they still didn't even get it all off. At the end of the day, the only important thing for Jerry, was to get his check. I couldn't inspect the deck that night (because the surface was wet) so I didn't give his crew the rest of the money. So Jerry made sure to have his person stop by at 8:00am the next morning to make sure he got his money. After I slept on this for a few days, I called Jerry with my concerns about the rail. He was supposed to stop by that Friday, as he was going to be in the area, but he was a no show. Haven't heard from him since. If you hire him, I'd advise you sit and watch the type of job his people are doing. I assumed this was a professional outfit, and learned my lesson."

"Andres and his team are professionals. They masked off and covered all the windows, power washed the house, scraped it, applied peal-bond in selected areas, caulked, repaired rotten areas, foamed penetrations, applied two coats of paint, painted shutters and our deck. It took them two weeks working hard. Sure you can get it done by a cheap company in a couple of days and it will last maybe a couple of years. They have completely painted both the inside and outside of our house. We will not use anyone else. Mario, his foreman and Carlos and Nico are solid safe workers. They take care of your interests."

Quality work, minimal disruption. We realize that having your space overtaken by a paint crew isn’t exactly the ideal situation. That's why we've created a smart painting process that eliminates the hassle and mess you usually get with a painting project. Our personalized, detailed proposals clearly outline our services rendered and the total cost of the job. Our painters then work from the proposals, ensuring every project is completed on time and on budget. We deliver both speed and quality so you don’t have to shift your whole life around. And you won’t even smell paint fumes after we’re gone—we also use zero VOC paint, which is better for you and the environment.

"We unfortunately didn’t have a good experience with Wow. We selected a matte sheen for our interior and they used velvet, didn’t repair nail pops, & used a long nap roller, leaving an orange peel texture on our previously smooth walls. We had some areas needing sanding which were not properly done. To be fair, when we raised concerns, they returned promptly & did a nice job fixing the exterior. They applied 1 coat of matte to the interior, again using long rather than short nap roller we requested. 1 coat didn’t fully cover the shine and orange peel remained. My husband preferred to attempt a fix ourselves rather than having them return again, so we told them it was better. We told them we applied a 2nd matte coat with a short nap roller to further reduce shine and smooth the walls. They did not acknowledge this or offer any rectification. We paid $2400 for our interior, applied 2nd coat ourselves, and are stuck either living with orange peel or paying another company to fix it."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Apple Valley, MN

It's best to stain your new fence after the wood has fully dried, which usually takes about six to eight weeks after installation. Waiting ensures the stain adheres properly, giving your fence lasting protection. Staining a fence usually takes three to five days. You'll start by cleaning the wood and letting it dry for at least 24 hours. After applying the stain, you'll need to wait 12 to 24 hours for each coat to dry.

Paint lasts longer than stain—about five to 10 years compared to stain's one to eight years. Painting requires more prep work and multiple coats, but offers a durable, long-lasting finish. Staining is less labor-intensive and allows the wood's natural beauty to show, but may need more frequent reapplication. Consider your maintenance preferences and desired look when choosing between the two.

Yes, you should stain both sides of your fence. Staining both sides provides complete protection from weather, moisture, and pests, extending your fence's lifespan and keeping it looking good. If your fence borders a neighbor’s property, communicate with them about splitting the cost of staining both sides of the fence or work out an agreement that satisfies both parties.
