 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had our hallways and stair railings painted by Encore Painting Ltd and would like to thank them for their excellent work! Right from the start they were extremely professional and friendly. Thank you Alex and Dani for taking the time to visit our home and to deliver a timely quote. Once we decided to move forward with Encore we were assigned a project manager, Reza, who oversaw the project from start to finish ... checking in to make sure that the work was being done to our satisfaction. And ultimately, thank you to Tim (the painter) who did an exceptional job on our hallways and stair railings. He was very detailed oriented, very professional and also a very nice man. Will definitely recommend their work and will hire them again. Thank you Encore Painting Ltd.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I hired Encore to paint my condo downtown, and Tim was the painter assigned to my unit.
If you live in a condo, you know the logistics can be a headache, but Tim was a total pro. He handled the entire unit solo, which I actually preferred—he was incredibly efficient, low-profile, and required zero micromanagement. He arrived fully briefed on the project details and just executed the plan perfectly without needing to ask a million questions or have his hand held.
I was specifically worried about my floors (herringbone vinyl) because the texture can easily trap paint splatter. Tim’s prep work was surgical; he had every inch of the floor and furniture protected before he even opened a paint can.
The real test, though, is the sunlight. My unit gets a lot of natural light, which usually highlights every roller mark or uneven patch. Tim’s finish is flawless even in direct sun, and he even took the time to smooth out minor drywall imperfections I hadn't noticed.
If you want a painter who is self-sufficient, respects your home, and delivers a high-end finish on his own, ask for Tim.

FAQs

What wood surfaces can you stain?

Encore Painting provides wood staining for a variety of interior and exterior surfaces, including decks and patios, custom furniture, floors, stairs, exterior siding and trim, cabinetry, and built-ins. The appropriate stain and preparation method depend on the type and condition of the wood.

Is staining better than painting wood?

It depends on the look and level of protection you want. Wood stain penetrates into the grain and allows more of the wood’s natural texture and character to remain visible, while paint creates an opaque coating over the surface. Stain is often preferred when preserving the natural appearance of the wood is important.

Can old or weathered wood be stained?

Yes, provided the wood is still in suitable condition. Older wood may require additional cleaning, sanding, removal of failing finishes, or minor repairs before staining. Proper preparation helps the stain absorb evenly and improves the appearance and durability of the finished surface.

Do you need to sand wood before staining?

Often, yes. Sanding may be required to remove an existing finish, smooth rough areas, open the wood grain, or create a consistent surface for the new stain. The amount of preparation depends on the existing coating and condition of the wood.

Do you provide exterior wood staining in Toronto?

Yes. Encore Painting stains exterior wood surfaces throughout Toronto and the GTA, including decks, fences, siding, trim, and other outdoor wood features. Exterior staining helps refresh the appearance of the wood while providing protection from exposure to the elements.
