"This was a very large commercial interior painting job - large kitchen, restrooms, clubhouse w/wood trim, ceilings, doors and a lot of trim work. Jim showed up on time to give me a bid on the job. He is very knowledgeable regarding painting and has great suggestions. He said this job would take him 4 - 6 weeks to complete. It took Jim a month - 22 days {8-10 hrs/day] to complete this job which was 2 weeks sooner than we had expected. He took time and care in prepping which paid off in the long run. The walls, which had a lot of holes in them from pictures, looked brand new when he was finished. He painted over paneling and it looks amazing. He doesn't tape anything off - he works totally free hand and does an excellent job. He had great suggestions and everything came out better than expected. There was absolutely no mess or clean up. He showed up every day promptly and kept me informed on what he would be working on and completion times. Jim was very easy to work with and I would highly recommend High Mountain Painting. I would definitely hire Jim again."

"Israel did a fantastic job on restructuring and replacing our steep flagstone north stairway. He tore out and rebuilt front patio and pathways. He and his crew were most professional and cleaned up total areas completely. Highly recommend his work!"

"Bob had two weeks of availability between jobs to assist me with a walk-out basement renovation I knew he could not finish in two weeks but was really impressed and happy with how much he was able to complete. He did a little bit of everything including framing, drywall and trim, a bathroom remodel, painted kitchen cabinets, hung shelving, laid flooring, installed lighting, hung doors, and more! I had a couple contractors come in to finish the few remaining items and both of them commented on the quality of the work Bob did. He has an excellent work ethic and communicated well. Without question, I will hire Bob again."

"We hired Mountain Side to paint our condo interior completely and install wood flooring in place of the carpeting that was there. The painting was done with perfect continuity and it turned out fantastic. They made sure to our final walkthrough was done and they did touch up a few areas. The flooring project was amazing. Their attention to the smallest detail was incredible. They were on time everyday and very professional in their demeanor. Exceptionally polite and courteous with us. We’re actually going to miss seeing them everyday and would highly-highly recommend them for any home project you would be interested in."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

The best finish for wrought iron railings is either a semi-gloss or a gloss sheen, as each offers good durability against rain, wind, heat, cold, and snow. 

If your cedar fence is new, don’t delay. Unlike treated pine, you don’t need to wait months for the wood to dry out for it to accept stain. With cedar, the sooner, the better. Seal cedar within two weeks of installation to prevent the sun from fading its red color.

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.  

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.

Maintain your wattle fence by inspecting it at least twice per year for loose weaving and degrading branches. Replace any seriously degraded sections, ensure water drains properly around the posts, and trim any sprouting branches if you used green wood. If you notice the weave loosening, you can often tighten it by gently pushing down on the top branches. You can also apply a natural wood preservative every two to three years to extend the fence's lifespan.
