Dream Painting is the number one integrated professional group consisting of professional painters with 20 years of experience, communication experts with experience in interior design, advertising, & multimedia. We guarantee your satisfaction!

"We just had our house painted by Dream Painting, and I truly cannot express how impressed we are with the entire experience—from beginning to end. From the initial request for a quote, Paul was incredibly easy to work with. He was open, honest, and transparent about everything, especially the reasoning behind Dream Painting’s use of only the highest-quality paint. From day one, he made it clear that they weren’t interested in doing anything less than a job we could all be proud of—and they delivered on that promise in every way. Claire in the office was absolutely amazing. Despite some scheduling challenges caused by my HOA (and me), she handled everything smoothly. Whether I had questions about colors, scheduling, or anything else, she was always polite, professional, prompt, and a joy to work with. Roberto, the project supervisor for our home, deserves the highest praise. His dedication to customer service is rare and admirable. We had multiple conversations throughout the process about everything from unexpected issues to color decisions and prep work. He always made time to explain the pros and cons of any choice we faced and genuinely worked to find the best solution—even if it meant more work for him or his crew. What really stood out was how he treated my home like it was his own. Roberto has an incredible eye for detail and clearly has years of high-quality painting experience. He constantly inspected the work and caught things I never would have noticed—then made sure they were addressed properly, not just quickly patched. On many occasions, he voluntarily created more work for himself to ensure perfection. Even though he was frequently hands-on with the crew—prepping, painting, or overseeing progress—he always made time to communicate with me. Whether by call or text, I never waited more than an hour for a response. Dream Painting is lucky to have someone like Roberto representing them. He treated me like I was his only client and genuinely acted like he owned the company. I got five quotes before starting this project. Price is always a factor when it comes to something as major as painting the entire exterior of your home. But from my first interaction with Paul and Claire, I had a feeling this company was different—and I was 100% right. Not only did they pressure wash and thoroughly prep the entire home, but they also used top-of-the-line Dunn-Edwards paint. To my surprise, their quote actually came in as the lowest of the five. My wife and I absolutely love the final result. We will never use anyone else for painting—Dream Painting is our go-to from now on, and we’ll specifically be asking for Roberto. If you're even thinking about having paint work done, give Dream Painting a call. You won’t be disappointed. In fact, it may be one of the best home improvement decisions you ever make."

We specialize in residential, commercial, and multi-family painting projects. We have painted over 1,500 residential homes and nearly 100 commercial and multi-family projects. There's no project request, we haven't already come across. We know how to get the job done efficiently and on time. Sharp Painting was established in 1991 with over 50 years of painting industry experience and knowledge combined. Our painters are professional and courteous. We treat your home and property as if it was our own. We want to provide a great experience from start to finish by constant communication and making sure to deliver on our promises. Sharp Painting is owner-operated. http://www.sharppaintingco.com

"On the positive side, the job started and ended as expected, and the crew was always on time. John was easy to work with and was accommodating. I was a bit surprised that the painters asked me to open only the front corner windows. When I asked if they wanted me to open all the windows, I was met with a blank stare. So I’m not sure if the other window frames were painted. On the final day of the job, there were a number of areas requiring touch-up. One disappointment was that I paid extra to have a flagpole painted. I also asked John if they could put up a new rope. He said they could, but at the last minute, he said they couldn’t. So, I have to wonder if they actually painted the entire flagpole. Logically, if they painted the entire flagpole, they should have been able to string up the new rope. Having been a Customer Service manager for most of my working years, the first lesson in customer service is never over promise and under deliver."

Deck staining or paintings FAQs

When you paint your deck, you can choose any color, and cleanup is easy, but the paint hides the natural wood grain. Stain, on the other hand, lets the wood grain shine through, but requires more maintenance. The cost to seal a deck is about the same as painting. Consider your personal preferences to see which option benefits you most.

For bare wood or cement decks, you only need to clean the surface before applying the first coat of paint. If you're recoating an existing finish, you'll need to pressure wash the deck to remove chipped paint and debris. Either way, make sure to allow the surface to fully dry before moving forward; otherwise, the finish could peel.

A gallon of paint covers between 125 and 300 square feet, depending on its formula. Since your deck might need two coats of paint, for a standard 300-square-foot deck, you might need two to four gallons. If you're painting a pool deck, keep in mind that the specialized non-slip paint covers less area because the texturized material takes up more space in the can.

The cost to stain a deck ranges from $2 to $4 per square foot, which is similar to the average deck painting cost. For a 300- to 400-square-foot deck, you might pay from $600 to $1,600 for staining. After staining, it’s a good idea to seal the deck; sealing a deck costs $0.50 to $3 per square foot.

Yes, you can paint directly over old deck paint if the existing finish is in excellent condition. You should inspect the surface to ensure there's no cracking, peeling, or chipping before proceeding. If you notice any deterioration, you'll need to remove the compromised paint. Clean your deck thoroughly with a power washer, lightly sand any rough spots, and use the same type of paint to guarantee proper adhesion and long-lasting performance.

Yes, applying a coat of primer before painting your deck is essential unless you're using a combined 2-in-1 formula. Primer enhances the adhesion of the new paint, establishes a moisture barrier, and creates a smooth, uniform surface. Be sure to inspect your deck for any defects or old finishes, and use a high-quality primer to fully prepare the surface for a durable and pristine finish.
