"Larry is my go-to guy for painting. I have used him several times, both for my home and for my rental. I noted that the specific project was interior painting, which he has done for me on several occasions. He always does a good job, and shows up when he says he will, and finished the project on time. I have also used Larry for exterior and trim painting, doors and he also stained the wood shingles on the exterior of my home. He is always professional both in dealing with me and my tenants. I am also aware of his work painting the inside of my church, which involved high ceilings, beams and two colors. He did a beautiful job. I would not hesitate to recommend Larry for any painting job."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

A dry lawn is easier to edge than a wet one. When your ground is wet, your blades will likely clump together, making a seemingly even cut while wet, but an uneven disaster when dried. Also, a wet lawn can impact your blade's performance and cause mud to kick up, resulting in a messy finish.

Regular staining, sealing, and inspecting for rot or insect damage prolongs fence lifespan.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

You can only change your neighbor's fence with their permission. A neighbor's fence is their property, and altering it without their consent could constitute trespassing or property damage, which may have legal consequences. If you have concerns or disagreements about your neighbor's fence, communicate with them openly and try to reach a mutually agreeable solution. If you believe the fence violates local zoning laws or property regulations, consult with local authorities or seek legal advice to address the issue through proper channels. 

The process of painting or staining a fence typically takes between one and five days. The total duration depends on factors like the size of the fence, weather conditions, and necessary drying times. A significant portion of this time is for drying, as stain won't properly absorb into wet wood. You should wait 24 hours to stain a fence after washing it and allow 12 to 24 hours of drying time between each coat. The active work time is generally about one hour for every 10 to 20 linear feet of fencing.
