"They were team players, each one knew how to do all of the jobs. They were honest (I had hidden some money that I had forgotten about they found it and gave it to me) they are also well mannered and very polite. They did an excellent job installing carpet in 4 units. They had to move a lot of furniture in the units and nothing was broken. I would recommend them to anyone and would hire them again."

"Our fence looks incredible! They came swiftly to do the work, and we still get compliments about how great our fence looks. We liked working with Henry. The first issue arose when the fence exceeded the quote and contract that we signed. We weren’t told this until the very end of the work, which was not great to say the least by an additional 20%. We knew there was some flexibility in the price, but it would’ve been nice to say, by the way, we’ve exceeded the estimated price and expect the final price to be in this range. Lastly, we also had issues with our gate hinges and called them back 3x until it was finally fixed. It was difficult to get them to come back out even though we were under warranty, and we encountered issues with their customer service and communication. We would probably still use them again for another fence but would only communicate with Henry."

The communication was timely and easy. You all made making payments simple. The quality of the materials and workmanship were beyond expected. The only delay was due to me not reading an email so I apologize for that. Selvin and his crew were so nice and professional. There were no delays. Even the clean up was done within 24 hrs of the completion. Our deck is now beautiful but more importantly, safe to use. Oh, and the stair lights are amazing!! Thank you all for a great experience."

"Thomas M was an excellent technician and did great work fixing all the basement windows around the house. These windows are difficult to find a replacement but he was able to repair and repaint them. The other technician was Pablo He worked on caulking all the windows around the house and he did some filling work on the garage sliding doors You did a good job, but Pablo left his trash around and didn’t pick up after himself so Thomas M and I did that on the third day. It took three days total, but it was two men for two days and one man for a 3/4 of a day actually. Although I’ll probably get charged for a full day, since it went past noon. The labor portion is the most expensive and a little higher than I initially anticipated. So, I was hoping for a quicker turnaround, but overall quality work was completed. I would highly recommend Thomas M as a technician to do future work. He’s very knowledgeable, friendly and does a great job. I would hire again but include more details in the contract language."

We are the last outdoor maintenance company you will ever need! Tony's Power Washing & Windows Cleaning is a local family owned and operated company specialized in power washing, window cleaning, deck maintenance and gutter cleaning. If it's outside, we'll make it shine! Give us a call to talk about how we can improve the look of your home today! ** for this month we are offering, house siding power washing up to 2.500 sq for $329.00 **

"I contacted Tony's to schedule a window cleaning for our row house in Mount Pleasant. We just completed a remodel of our upstairs, and we needed the windows cleaned. It was very easy to get an appointment, and everyone I spoke with was very nice and professional. But on the day of the appointment, the technician arrived at our house and told me that the company cannot clean upstairs windows on row houses because they are not certified to clean anything over 40 feet high. I asked if they service row houses and he told me no, they do not. I had explained in my initial call that I live in a row house and asked why no one had told me over the phone that the company does not service row houses, and he had no idea. He gave me the name and number for another company that can service row houses, so it's not a crisis, but we lost a week during a tight schedule trying to get our house back together after construction. Bottom line: everyone I dealt with was very nice and professional, but the company should be up front about what they're certified to do and capable of. If they are not certified to clean windows over 40 feet, they should either list that on the website or explain that on the phone. I have no idea about the service itself; the only thing I do know is that if you live in a row house, try elsewhere."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Columbia, MD

You'll need about two gallons of paint to fully cover your kitchen cabinets with two coats. Since each gallon covers around 350 square feet, it's a good idea to measure your cabinets or use a paint calculator to determine exactly how much you'll need. Starting with one or two coats of primer and then applying two to three layers of paint will give you a flawless, durable finish. Using high-quality paint can reduce the number of coats needed and provide a long-lasting finish.

The best type of paint for your kitchen cabinets is latex paint because it applies evenly and creates a durable finish. If you're painting wood surfaces and need extra adhesion, acrylic paint is a great alternative. We don't recommend oil-based paint for residential use due to its VOC emissions. For finishes, go with eggshell, semi-gloss, gloss, or satin, as matte finishes aren't as durable or as easy to clean.

The best method for painting kitchen cabinets is spray painting because it gives you a smooth, even finish without brush strokes. While brushes and rollers can work, they often leave marks and require more effort. If you're aiming for a professional look, spray painting is your best bet to enhance the beauty and durability of your cabinets.
