"We had New Life Painting paint both the interior and exterior of our home. They came in as a team and worked that way to the end going way beyond our expectations . They came in at 8AM and worked til 4:30 0r 5 each day . Never leaving a mess . Very careful with out property . Mike ran the crew each day with Tim in to check to see everything was meeting his expectations. I would use them again with any painting needs, Our home looks wonderful !"

"Great company and employees. Overestimated the amount of paint needed for the job which customer had to pay for. We will find a way to use up the paint. We would still rehire them."

Customers say: Quick response

"We first met Gregory when he was painting a family members house. We were immediately impressed with the care and expertise he brought to the job. When it came time to paint the outside of our 2000 SF home, we didnâ t hesitate to contact Gregory. We had an idea of our colors we wanted and from the beginning Gregory worked his magic to challenge us to insure we were completely happy with our choice. This was the beginning of a collaborative experience. Day 1 â Gregory and his team arrived promptly and updated us of the dayâ s schedule (scraping, sanding, prep, etc.). Day 2 â Power washing, masking and additional prep work. Days 3 to 7 - Painting, painting, painting, including staining of our new fence. Gregoryâ s team always took care to make sure we were included in every step of the way and went over and above with the â extrasâ . We already plan to use Gregory for another job next month. You will not be disappointed hiring Gregory and Transformational Color."

"Jonathan and his team also painted my bathroom, bedroom, and hallway; power washed the exterior of my house, deck, and garage before painting/staining, making all necessary repairs so that the painting/staining could be done. He works with a very competent carpenter/handyman. Jonathan checked in with me every step of the way. The crew was neat and orderly; the work performed as contracted; and the price was very affordable. I would wholeheartedly recommend him and Revival Painting. It was a pleasure to do business with someone so honest and committed to doing the best job."

"My highest recommendation I have ever given to a contractor. Diaz Painting painted my house the first week of November. The weather was constantly changing between rainy, windy, to nice. Diaz Painting tarped sides of my house to keep the paint protected. I was home the entire time working in my office. The painters were pleasant and hard working. A very positive experience at a fair price."

Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Most gutter painting pros also specialize in complete home exterior painting. You may save by making your gutter painting part of the cost to paint the exterior of a house in its entirety. Many people have all parts of their home exterior painted simultaneously to keep everything looking equally fresh. Consider having walls, trim, porches, shutters, and doors painted as well.

You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.  

Manufacturers use a different process and formula for exterior paint versus interior. The exterior formula has to withstand elements like temperature, UV lighting, moisture, wind, and debris. Interior paint doesn’t need to be as tough, only exposed to dust, scratches, dents, scuff marks, and the like.

If you have the time and the budget, we strongly recommend staining your fence, especially if it's looking a bit tired or hasn't been treated recently. While you may not see the same return on investment (ROI) as you would with a project like a kitchen remodel, staining a fence is one of the best ways to add a facelift to your property—a new fence stain adds serious curb appeal to your home.
