Dave and team did a fantastic job painting the exterior of our house and matching shed. From the start they communicated well and managed expectations. Their estimate was competitive with others we received and included replacement of around 100 siding boards. Work was completed professionally, on time and on budget. The few minor concerns I had were quickly addressed. I will definitely use them for all future painting needs.Posted on Google Kathie LongbriccoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having had several unpleasant experiences with painting contractors I contacted Proper Painters after seeing them on Facebook. I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect. I was holding out hope that maybe, just maybe I would be able to get the old shutters replaced and painted on my 1960’s Rancher (no contractor to date wanted to do this) AND I wanted the entire interior to be given a facelift. I needed multiple plaster cracks in ceilings & walls repaired and everything repainted including all moulding. I reached out via FB and was pleasantly surprised when Dave, the owner responded. From the first conversation my experience with PP was fabulous. The first meeting was with Dave for a free estimate, we chatted about what I wanted, he took multiple pics. got square footage and provided me with a rough estimate before leaving. OMG! Thank you! He followed up with a solid estimate & guarantee of workmanship within 48 hours. WOW! Impressive. I took my time with my decision and I’m happy to report I was not hounded or pressured in any way. I believe it was around day 10 when I received a text wondering if I had any questions - I hired PP that day. The ongoing, respectful, honest communication was refreshing and I’m happy to say it continued through to projects end. Proper Painters started on time and on the mutually agreed upon date. We did a walk thru with the project manager Jack lead painter, Elvin to ensure everyone was on the same page and then the transformation began. Two painters worked diligently for 4 days to complete the interior. They were conscientious, detail oriented, efficient and above all skilled. I was kept informed of day to day progress and the overall timeline. Once the interior was done the shutters were addressed. I had very old vinyl shutters in need of replacement & I wanted the new ones painted yellow. Dave was the only person who took the time to talk to me about options and because of this conversation I was able to confidently make the decision to replace the old vinyl with brand new wooden shutters. Problem solved!!!! Note: this seems like an easy solution but no other contractor wanted to “deal” with it. The wooden shutters were primed & painted in a custom shade that I absolutely love. The entire project took 6 days start to finish. I couldn’t be happier! I’m ringing in the New Year in a fresh “new” house, what better way to welcome 2026. Thank you Dave, Jack, Elvin & JulioPosted on Google Danessa KnauppTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was a terrific experience start to finish! Beth the color consultant was prompt and super helpful, Jack was responsive and friendly and knowledgeable, and Elvin and the painters were prompt, talented and FAST! highly recommend and wish all contractors worked as well as this team.Posted on Google Anne PickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Proper Painters was recommended to me and I am doing the same. They were professional, on time, cleaned up the mess from drywall sanding, within a price range I was willing to pay, and completed the job 10 days after signing estimate. The work included, removal of popcorn ceiling, drywall tape and mud of ceiling, drywall repair, and all the painting including baseboards, doors, and closets. Would I hire them again, absolutely.Posted on Google Melissa FaryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A great experience from start to finish. Dave came out quickly to give me an estimate for the job. He explained everything to me perfectly about the entire process. He suggested Beth come out to help me settle on colors (this service is free, I highly recommend using it). She was great and then I was scheduled. Jack said 3 1/2 days and they were finished in 3 1/4 days. Gui painted 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, Living Room, kitchen, dining area and foyer beautifully. Everything is clean and gorgeous. I highly recommend Proper Painters.Posted on Google Leslie BlackwellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Decks should typically be stained every 2-3 years, depending on the type of finish and exposure to weather conditions. Proper execution of deck staining can ensure the stain lasts this long before needing a recoat. Regular maintenance like annual professional pressure washing and touch-ups of fresh stain can prolong the lifespan of your deck’s finish. Weather conditions in Virginia, including humidity, rain, and UV exposure, affect how long the stain lasts. Contact us at 804-592-6929 for a deck inspection and staining estimate.
Semi transparent deck stains enhance the natural wood grain and are suitable for various wood types, including Western Red Cedar and Treated Pine, while providing UV resistance and water repellency. Semi solid stains are designed to cover slight imperfections in wood and are effective on older decks or worn surfaces, providing UV protection and durability. Transparent or translucent stains reveal most of the natural wood grain and are typically oil-based, allowing for deep penetration into the wood. Our expert team can help you select the excellent choice for your specific deck and aesthetic preferences. Call 804-592-6929 to discuss stain options for your Chesterfield deck.
Deck stains require thorough surface preparation which includes cleaning and sanding the wood to ensure proper adhesion. We start with professional pressure washing to remove dirt and old finishes, ensuring a clean surface for the new stain application. Wood moisture content must be below 15-20% for oil-based stains to absorb properly, so we verify this before proceeding. Our prep work includes inspecting for rot or damage that needs repair, sanding smooth rough areas, and protecting surrounding landscaping and property. Contact us at 804-592-6929 for professional deck staining services with proper preparation.
The optimal temperature range for applying stain is between 50°F and 90°F, and the wood must be completely dry. We avoid staining when rain is forecasted within 24-48 hours, as moisture can prevent proper stain absorption and curing. High humidity can slow drying times, so we schedule deck staining services during periods of good weather for best results. After staining, we recommend allowing sufficient time for the stain to dry before using the deck or exposing it to moisture or snow. Call 804-592-6929 to schedule your deck staining during optimal weather conditions.
Applying stain blocks wood pores, preventing rot, decay, and the growth of mold. Deck staining helps protect against fading caused by weather conditions, making it crucial for maintaining the wood’s appearance and structural integrity. Quality stains provide UV protection, water repellency, and create a barrier against the elements including rain, snow, and temperature fluctuations. This protection extends the life of your deck, prevents costly repairs, and maintains your property value and curb appeal. Contact us at 804-592-6929 for professional staining services that protect your investment.
The deck staining process generally includes preparation, application, and drying time, which can take 2-3 days depending on the size of the deck and weather conditions. Surface preparation with pressure washing and sanding typically takes one day, with 24 hours of drying time required before staining. Stain application takes one day for most residential decks, followed by 24-48 hours of curing before the surface can be used. Our expert team works efficiently while ensuring every step receives proper attention for long lasting protection and beauty. Call 804-592-6929 for a timeline estimate for your deck project.
