"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

If possible, it is beneficial to paint both sides of your fence to protect the fence more completely from the elements. Painting both sides of your fence will create a more consistent appearance as well. However, the time and cost involved in painting both sides of the fence may cause people to paint only the side they see.

The best way to prepare your vinyl fence for a paint job is to clean it with warm, soapy water and rinse it with a hose or pressure washer on a low setting. Be sure to let it totally dry, then sand the surface before applying an epoxy-based primer. After the primer, you're ready to paint your vinyl fence.

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

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.

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.
