Services
BRIGHTER DAYS! Corp. established in Columbia in 1982 and incorporated in 1994, is owned by Randy Fletcher.
We have been serving the Columbia, MO area since our inception here and over the years have grown, along with Columbia, in quality and scope.
Randy arrived in Columbia as a transplant from Lawrence, Kansas where he got started in the painting and window cleaning business using his father's wooden 32' extension ladder and his wife's Pinto sedan.
Randy soon acquired a rusty Pinto wagon (a little more room for tools and ladders) which he brush painted with yellow Rust-oleum and hand painted a sign on the vinyl "woody" sides.

The typical exterior will be power washed to remove dirt and oxidation and we'll use a mildewcide when mold is present.
Then the prep work begins in earnest with minor repairs to siding and trim and with scraping and sanding off of all loose paint, loose caulking and glazing compounds etc.
When working on your openable window exteriors we will mask off the interior of the window to prevent dust from getting inside.
When lead paint is present we follow the EPA RRP rules for disturbance of lead paint using HEPA vacuum sanders to contain the dust and debris created during the prep work.

Ideal for wood decks and fences is a transparent or semi-transparent oil base stain whether they are new or previously stained decks.
Of course if your deck has had a semi opaque, solid color or has been painted you can't go back to semi-transparent.
The heavier, more opaque finishes are not ideal for decks because they have too much exposure to the elements and tend to begin pealing after a few years creating a maintenance headache.
For decks and fences previously treated with opaque products there is nothing for it but to continue with an opaque product and do the necessary prep work before applying more of the same.
