"Where to start? Out of the hand full that came out ... Sir Mike saw what was previously done, I think it upset him. I believe he approached the unprimed project as if his own with a purpose to do the best he could using his craft ... The first thing at hand, washing the project down. I have seen many painting jobs ... They paint right over dirt, dust, ash, pollen and ... He needed and wanted a clean slate .... I was very happy to hear this ... He wash down for about 1.50 hrs ... He used a few separate primer and paint ... nOt the magic in the can ... We asked for a specific paint to be used and he procured exactly the request ... We are in a area that can get dusty, windy, hot extremely ... He suggested low sheen, better cleaning than flat ... He works, up and down ... He is fast however he uses safety for him, first ... He were told the amount of time he beat it ... He left his drop cloths on site, but asked if okay? He has a great focus and personality ... Would I recommend him? I surely would, periOd! We are happy, he gave us better ... He fiXed what another left behind, an unprimmed peeling mess ... No care paint company, just sprinkled on paint ... Sir Mike's Printing did very well ... for us ... Other projects, he will be the painter, craftsman for us. He did a great job on purpOse ..."

"I'm putting my home on the market and needed it to be painted quickly. It has rained continually here in northern California so finding a few days of dry weather was tricky. Sure enough as soon as the sun came out for 3 days, the painters where working. They painted my whole house and detached garage in about 2.5 days. They cleaned up all the painting trash nicely and were very personable. And, the price was great! I would like to highly recommend L & S Painting!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Acrylic latex paint is the best option to use on your outdoor wrought iron fence, because it holds up well against the elements. Use a high-quality, exterior-grade paint specifically designed for use on metal. You can choose between spray paint or regular liquid paint. As for primer, it's best to use an oil-based and rust inhibiting option before painting your wrought iron fence.

Yes, you can paint galvanized chain link, but the process is a bit more difficult as it requires additional prep work. Before applying the primer and paint, you must remove the original coating from the metal, which can be time-consuming. If the original coating is not removed, the primer and paint will not bond properly and cause peeling over time.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.
