"Julio and Richard were very professional and checked-in with me regularly during the job to make sure I didn't have any concerns, and keep me informed as the job progressed. In addition to painting the house, they were able to restore the dry wall of my patio ceiling, and put in new stained wood slats for my RV gate."

"This is the second time that I hired D&V Painting, because they did a fantastic job last month painting my home's exterior. Victor and David did an excellent job painting 4 interior rooms, which included ceiling and wall texture. They are experienced masters that can apply any type of texture. They use quality paint. They are meticulous when it comes to masking areas to avoid, and all lines and edges are perfectly straight. They make sure everything is perfect; for example, they applied an extra coat of paint to several areas that they felt would look better. In addition, they volunteered to paint a door, closet interiors, and a couple of frames that weren't part of the job, just to make everything perfect."

"We chose Dependable Painting following our initial meeting with John the owner. His thorough examination of our exterior, his knowledge of paint and an honest understanding of business sealed our decision to have our home painted by his company. We couldn’t have been more satisfied following the job his team provided. Following the job, cleanup was excellent and John’s follow up with us sealed our true satisfaction with our decision to do business with Dependable Painting."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

Painting or staining protects fences from environmental damage, enhances durability, and improves curb appeal with a fresh, customized look.

There are several ways to make a wooden fence more visually appealing and keep it that way for years to come.

  • Treat the fence with a wood sealant to protect it against the elements. It’s recommended to reseal a fence every two to three years, but if you live in a harsh climate, you may want to do it more frequently than that.

  • Restore the fence if it’s old, corroding, or fading. That includes cleaning it and making small repairs where needed.

  • Paint the fence in a color that you like, whether that’s a simple white or more vibrant option. Fences usually need to be repainted every one to three years.

  • Decorate the fence with planters, string lights, birdhouses, mirrors, shutters, and more.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage.
