"James painting power washed the aluminum siding of my house and then painted it. We could not be happier with the work they completed. Angelo and his crew were very professional and did an excellent job. On the last day of the job they even brought in extra crew members to help finish the project before the weather changed. I highly recommend them for your painting projects."

"I hired these folks for a challenging interior job that required repair of old plaster walls and painting over very old paint. Things went well and I was happy with the work as well as the cleanliness of the overall process. I would recommend to anyone looking."

"The workers and the office support coordinator have all been very polite, responsive and easy to work with. They responded positively to touch-ups needed. They are professional painters and did a very good job with power washing, repair and scraping trims, sanding, priming and painting of the entire exterior of 2 houses including all trims and sidings. They were clean, efficient and on schedule. They kept me updated throughout the project."

"We had two homes and a garage which needed painting. We posted the job on Home Advisor and Fernando answered within 15 minutes. He came to our property that day, and sent us a very reasonable quote which was less than what another contractor had quoted us. Fernando's plentiful reviews on Home Advisor were ALL 5-star, so we felt comfortable in hiring him. Fernando was able to start the job within a couple of days, and worked with our schedule. He provided paint samples of quality paint for us to see the actual colors we liked on the exteriors. He was patient as we decided. His crew of Louis, Marco and Marcado were affable, friendly and hard-working. They even were willing to work on a Sunday and long hours to finish the job in time. Fernando always put a smile on our faces with his upbeat attitude and positive manner. We hired him to do other projects while there including repairing some stone work on a chimney, stripping wallpaper and interior painting, and putting on an exterior door. It seems Fernando and his team can do anything. Fernando always answered our calls and emails promptly, and said we could contact him up until about midnight. Fernando is a dream to work with. We think he should change his company name to Happy Home Painting and Projects - because Fernando is always happy and his work makes you happy. My husband is an engineer, and has always done our painting and construction projects. He is meticulous, and has an experienced eye. Fernando even made my husband happy, which makes me happy. We had a pizza party to celebrate our beautiful painted homes and garage with Fernando and his team. Fernando and his guys feel like family after knowing them a short time. We look forward on doing more projects with Fernando and Company. You will not be disappointed if you hire Fernando. He says his goal is to make you happy with his work. And he does!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

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.  

If it rains after you paint your fence, you may need to apply another coat of paint after the fence thoroughly dries. This will ensure a good seal if the rain weakened any areas of the paint. However, if your paint had enough time to dry thoroughly before it rained, you should have no problem.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again. 

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.
