"Very professional painting service with great knowledge about what paint would be the most durable and excellent painting skills. Plus, their communication was very good, and I was happy to have them here at our property. My home looks like new now. Would highly recommend this company. You can count on their word and skill for your painting needs. The price we paid was what we were quoted."

"THE ACTUAL PAINT JOB WAS EXCELLENT. THEY WERE A HARD WORKING CREW AND I BELIEVE THEY TOOK PRIDE IN THEIR WORK. I WOULD HAVE GIVEN A GRADE OF "A" FOR THE JOB EXCEPT THAT THERE WERE SIGNIFCANT SCHEDULING ISSUES DUE TO THE BOSS, AS WELL AS HIS OVERESTMATE OF OVER 2 GALLONS OF PAINT FOR THE JOB, THE PAINT WHICH I HAD TO SUPPLY. THAT MISTAKE COST BE AN ADDITIONAL $60, AND BECAUSE THE PAINT WAS CUSTOM COLOR , IT WAS NOT RETURNABLE. THEN THE ISSUE OF THE BOSS LOSING MY PAYMENT CHECK AND MY HAVING TO SUBMIT A STOP PAYMENT REQUEST TO MY BANK FURTHER DISAPPOINTED ME ABOUT THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE. BUT I WANT TO REPEAT, THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB ON THE ACTUAL PAINTING."

"We were on a tight timeline to prepare a condo apartment for listing for sale. Painters from CG Pro Painting managed to work around the tight timeline and did fantastic work, including crack repairs and fixing ceiling stains due to recent flood. We believe their exceptional work and quality really helped with the sale. Would definitely recommend them to others!"

"Jorge is a perfectionist! Painted our entire home interior and twice stained our exterior deck. Super attention to detail and pointing out things I didnâ t even ask for. Kept exactly to his estimate. Knowledgeable about products and options. Pleasant to have in our home. Even cleaned our chandelier for us! I have already recommended Jorge Bello to friends, and will use his services again for sure."

"Marco painted the exterior of our house and performed some drywall and texturing indoors. He and his team were very co-operative and enjoyed and loved their work. Marko had great attention to details and saw and fixed his team minor painting defects that we could not see ourselves. Also his indoors texturing and outdoor stucco repair were superb. I highly recommend him for any outdoors/indoors painting job."

Painting questions, answered by experts

A cedar fence will actually last quite a long time even if you don’t treat it with stain. In fact, you can expect to get between 15 and 30 years out of an untreated cedar fence. However, if you want to preserve its color and extend its life, treat it with a combination stain and sealer every three to five years.

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.

Staining a fence is less expensive than painting a fence due to the cost of materials and the longevity of the finish. Stain not only lasts longer than paint without chipping or peeling, but you also won’t have to put in the extra time and cost to prime the surface first. 

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.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths
