"They were able to accommodate my work schedule and complete the job is a very reasonable timeframe. They even returned 2 days later to do a touch up for me. No questions asked, no extra cost. Joshua even inspected it himself."

"Pros: Tim and his team did an excellent job painting the exterior of our house. Before starting the painting process, they made sure to power-wash the entire house, patch and repair portions of the house that needed work, and fix portions of the house that had water damage. Overall we are pleased with his work. Would highly recommend. Cons: - There are three large dead spots in our grass where the painters threw their paint water onto our lawn. - We have minor bubbling on our shutters. I expect things like this to happen, but the problem arose after only a month of the job being complete."

"Yes absolutely! We had a great experience with Stefanos and his team at Chromatic Vision Painting for our interior and exterior painting project. Stefanos was professional, easy to communicate with, and attentive to the details throughout the job. The crew took care to protect our home, did thorough preparation, and left everything clean. Both the interior and exterior look fantastic! We’re very happy with the results and would highly recommend Stefanos and his team."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Maintaining a composite fence is pretty straightforward, as it doesn’t require staining or repainting. To keep it clean, scrub the fencing with a composite deck cleaner or hot, soapy water. Use a soft-bristle brush for the best results, and avoid using pressure washers or sanders. Plan to clean your fence at least twice a year. Scrubbing the fencing in the fall and spring can help prevent mold and mildew growth.

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.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.
