"Antonio was the consummate professional. He came when he said he would, did what he said he would, and then some. He painted this entire house inside. Walls and ceilings upstairs,walls and ceilings in the basement and garage as well. His work is flawless. I will never pick up another paintbrush as long as I live, as long as Antonio is around to do it for me. It is so refreshing to have such a skilled contractor work for you. I can’t recommend him highly enough. Absolutely outstanding."

"ESP Painting did a wonderful job for us. This is the second time we've used them and we were happy both times. The first was painting the outside of a large home and they paid attention to detail, cleaned up every day, repaired pieces that needed to be repaired and were extremely easy to work with. We had several rooms painted after that and, again, they did a great job. Eric is easy to communicate with, pays attention to details as you walk through the job and finds solutions to every problem. Mike, the onsite leader, is great. He cares about his work, the job was done beautifully, and he is very easy to communicate with as well."

"My husband & I have known John Watson since 2022. In 2022, he performed extensive painting of our entire master bedroom suite including walls, all trim & doors. He also totally repainted bathroom vanities in our master bath & hall bath. This was a large, intricate project because all doors had to be removed. John did a superior job on the vanities. He is an amazing painter & a perfectionist. He treats your home as if it was his very own. Everything turned out so beautiful. In 2023, he returned to paint the walls, all trim & doors in a very large kitchen & laundry room. He also painted our deck. In Fall of 2023, when we purchased a new home, we were in immediate need of our entire house to be repainted. It was a huge project, all walls, trim, doors, & closets, even the garage. John took the project without hesitation & performed his painting in his usual style, perfectly! He also began the project immediately since we had just moved in & desperately needed the work done ASAP. He is also an expert in drywall repair & any other repairs needed during the painting process. He is extremely intelligent & knowledgeable in painting and many other home projects which is a real asset to us in selecting a painting contractor. He is always very neat, polite & considerate. He cleans the project site before leaving for the day. He always asks his clients how he can help them during the entire project. We will definitely be contracting with John again as we continue to make improvements to our home. It’s such a good feeling to know that John is 100% trustworthy & such a wonderful person, too. He receives our highest recommendation!"

Whether you are a Home Owner, Business Owner, or General Contractor; Higgins Painting is the professional company that you have been looking for.
"Higgins Painting had done excellent work for me a few years ago at my prior home, and they did so again at my current home. I hired them to repaint the living room ceiling as well as the stairway and upper hallway, including both walls and trim, with a very high ceiling above the stairs. They were both prompt and professional at every step, from the in-person quote, to scheduling (which occurred much more quickly than I feared), to performing the job. They were very clear during the quote process, answering all my questions about the estimated charges. Their quote was a bit higher than another painter's, but that painter gave an estimate based on photos (not in-person) and I think the quote was fair and well worth it. Execution of the paint job was excellent, and I especially appreciated them insisting on coming back to put on a third coat when the agreed-upon two coats of wall paint were sufficient. Clean-up was immaculate. Finally, everyone I interacted with was friendly and pleasant. Highly recommended!"

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.
