Customers say: Quick response

"This is the second home Gregory has helped me with color consulting. This new home was built in 1880 and far away in Maine. Gregory helped me find colors and feelings that made sense in this new home. And WOW. The colors have transformed our home into something beautiful, inviting and perfectly perfect. Gregory is super easy to work with and helped not only with color, but technical aspects of paint and what to look for when hiring a painter. I cannot give this a better review. If you want a home that is uniquely yours, that speaks to your soul and honors the home, go for it!"

"Jonathan and his team also painted my bathroom, bedroom, and hallway; power washed the exterior of my house, deck, and garage before painting/staining, making all necessary repairs so that the painting/staining could be done. He works with a very competent carpenter/handyman. Jonathan checked in with me every step of the way. The crew was neat and orderly; the work performed as contracted; and the price was very affordable. I would wholeheartedly recommend him and Revival Painting. It was a pleasure to do business with someone so honest and committed to doing the best job."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Shadowbox fence maintenance depends on the material. But for wood shadowbox fences, maintenance typically includes annual cleaning to prevent mold growth, resealing or staining every two to three years, and promptly replacing any damaged or rotted boards. Vinyl fencing, on the other hand, typically only requires annual cleaning with a hose to maintain its appearance.

Overall costs depend on the fence height and length, prep work required, and labor if hiring professionals, ranging between $1 and $4 per square foot.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

The best finish for wrought iron railings is either a semi-gloss or a gloss sheen, as each offers good durability against rain, wind, heat, cold, and snow. 

Select based on wood type, climate tolerance, and personal preference for color and finish, with choices like oil-based stains for longevity.
