BeforeAfterResidential Painting Contractors
We paint homes for homeowners and new construction homes for builders in Severna Park, Arnold, Davidsonville and Queenstown. We paint siding, brick, trim and doors, whether you're updating an older home or finishing a new build. Every exterior estimate includes a free color consultation.

Commercial Painting Contractor for Local Businesses
We paint office buildings, retail spaces and other commercial properties across Anne Arundel County. Our crew finishes every commercial job on time, with the neatness and attention to detail a business needs. A freshly painted building tells customers you take care of your business.
Deck Staining Services
We restore, refinish and stain decks and deck stairs on Kent Island, in Chester and across Anne Arundel County. We bring weathered, gray decks back to life, and we oil and seal hardwood decks like mahogany. Ask Dan which stain color suits your deck when he walks the job.
Deck Painting Services
We paint decks and patios in Annapolis, Davidsonville and across Anne Arundel County. Paint gives your deck a solid, even color and covers worn wood. Dan will tell you whether paint or stain suits your deck at the estimate.
Fence Staining Services
We stain wood fences and gates in Davidsonville, Pasadena and across Anne Arundel County. Stain protects the wood from Maryland's sun, rain and snow and brings out its natural grain.
Fence Painting Services
We paint wood fences in Severna Park, Arnold and Annapolis, including the scraping and sanding that comes first. A freshly painted fence makes your whole yard look cleaner and protects the wood.
Pier and Dock Staining
We clean and stain piers and docks in Annapolis and along the water across Anne Arundel County. We clean the wood first, then stain it to protect it from sun, salt water and weather, so your pier looks good and lasts longer.
Pergolas, Patios, Playhouses, Sheds and Barns
We paint and stain pergolas, patios, playhouses, sheds and barns. Whether it's a small backyard shed or a large wooden barn, we prep the wood and finish it in paint or stain to match your home.
Exterior Wood Repair and Waterproofing
We repair siding and exterior woodwork before we paint, fixing or replacing damaged boards so the new paint goes on a solid surface. We also offer waterproofing to keep moisture out of the wood.
Brick Point Up and Polymeric Sand
We point up brick on homes in Annapolis and surrounding areas by replacing worn and cracked mortar joints with new mortar, which keeps water out and gives the brick a clean, finished look. We also install polymeric sand in the joints of paver patios and walkways to lock the pavers in place and keep weeds out.
Soft Washing Before Exterior Painting
EFF Painting/CleanRoof soft washes homes across Anne Arundel County and surrounding areas, and many of our exterior painting jobs start with a soft wash estimate. One company can clean the roof, wash the house and paint it.
