Established in 1980, Paintpourri is a family-owned and operated paint, blinds, and wallpaper store with its main location in Hackettstown. Last year, a new Paintpourri opened in Little Falls and in April 2023, the Whitehouse Station store opened. The mission of Paintpourri has remained the same since inception: to provide excellent customer service and quality products. Three generations of the Capano family have operated Paintpourri since the beginning. “It is a way of life for us,” says Matt Capano, the owner of the Little Falls store. “We eat, sleep, and breathe paint.”

As warm weather approaches, the Paintpourri team prepares for product sales and advice on staining decks. Armed with the latest training in paints, stains, and techniques, employees ensure that customers select and know how to use the right products. “Exterior painting is a long-term process, requires maintenance, and we want to ensure that our customers do it right, “says Capano.

For example, a transparent/translucent stain offers a natural look to your deck while providing some color and protection against UV rays and water. Then there is a semi-transparent stain that reduces the opacity of the coating but may give you and stains including Benjamin Moore Arborcoat, Wolman, Ready Seal, and Cabot.

“The important thing for clients to remember is that they have many options for finishing and maintaining their decks. And Paintpourri is here to guide them every step of the way,” says Capano.
