"Barry and his crew were very meticulous with caulking and tape lines which adds a clean detailed environment. SC was there on time and reasonably priced, knowledgeable and aided in paint and color selections. Completely hands off!!! Would definitely hire again, perhaps to paint the outside next."

"Levi was great. Started immediately as soon as I got the keys. He was hired to paint a large wall that was dark to a lighter color, our ceiling that had a crappy patch job, and touch up a bunch of damaged spots throughout the house. Ceiling was done super well. Re-textured and painted and looks fantastic. The patch job didn’t go that well at first. It was difficult to paint match and the spots were much darker. However, Levi was GREAT about taking care of it. He came back at no additional cost beyond the original quote, and fixed all the dark patches and made it look brand new. Super happy with his communication, timeliness, and work ethic. Would be happy to have him back for future painting needs."

"Great response and basic bid.  I added a few more details to the contract.  I am not sure the walls were primed before painting, or if the paint had a primer in it...this is my first professional paint job.  I am admittedly a perfectionist, so, I may have been a tiny bit disappointed prematurely.  The painters came back for touch-ups as I requested and overall, the place looks great.

Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Typically, a fence requires one to two coats of stain. The exact number can vary depending on the porosity of the wood. For specific guidance, it's best to check the manufacturer's instructions. After applying the first coat and letting it dry completely, you can assess the finish. If it appears patchy, uneven, or you want a more saturated color, a second coat is recommended. An extra coat can also help cover lap marks.

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.

Both a roller and a brush are effective methods for painting a chain link fence. A roller will make the job easier by ensuring symmetrical strokes and reaching the backside of the fence as well, which cuts down on paint time. However, a brush is often necessary for painting the base of the fence and near the posts due to its ease of reaching smaller spaces.

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.
