"Pacific Edge Painting did an outstanding job painting the exterior of our home. The crew demonstrated exceptional skill, attention to details, showed up when they promised, and were very organized and tidy. They went above and beyond in responding to additional work that was required to complete the job. Overall we had an outstanding experience in working with Pacific Edge Painting. I would highly recommend using them and will call them again for our next project."

"Great experience. Soto painting was very thoughtful and communicative. Soto painting strives for excellence and wants to make sure they do an excellent job. Helped out with all the details of the exterior painting including helping with rotten wood and gutter problems. The paint job was amazing and already have received a lot of compliments. I am so happy with the work and great full that I was able to connect and hire Soto Painting Co."

"DHR painting did a very nice job. We have a lot of trim work and all of it looks exceptional. Danny communicated well with us on timing and setting up a start date. The guys Brett and Scott doing the work were helpful and patient when coming across some color indecision mid job. My only negative would be they didn't always put in an 8 hour day and only seemed to work 3 days a week. They were supposed to have three guys painting, but only had two and often only one here at a time. The job could have been done faster if they had better team work. I was not in a rush so it turned out ok. All in all I would recommend them."

"The prep work took longer than the painting. They were very neat and moved and covered the furniture that was place in the center of the room. Also covered all of the carpet. They worked five days which was what they estimated, arriving at 9am and departing at 4:30 or 5pm. I will use them again and can highly recommend this company."

Painting questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to stain a fence depends on your experience and comfort level with the project. Applying stain with an airless sprayer or pump sprayer might get the stain job done faster, but it can be tricky. Paint rollers and stain brushes are slower but simpler for a DIY project.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

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.

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.
