"I recently had my home in Terra Vista painted by Clima-Guard Painting LLC, and I would like to commend Matt for the outstanding work he did. He was meticulous, courteous, and punctual every day throughout the project. The quality of the workmanship exceeded my expectations, and I was extremely satisfied with both the final result and the fair price. I would not hesitate to recommend Matt and Clima-Guard Painting LLC to anyone looking for a professional and reliable painting service."

"We just purchased this house and the garage doors and front door colors did not look right. We found Clima-Guard on Angies list. Matt came over and gave me us estimate which was exactly what I expected so We hired him. We wanted the color to match the house color. Matt recommended a color and we selected the color that he recommended. The next day Matt started painting in the morning. Matt was very professional, finished the job and it looks amazing. I will most definitely call Clima-Guard for any future painting, and recommend them if you need any painting done."

"They are very thorough and not pushy at all. They explain everything they are going to do and make sure they don't miss anything. They go over there work and double check everything and make sure you are satisfied before final payment. Just a well mannered bunch of nice people and they work together so well. I would recommend them to everyone Tom of Cape Coral Fl."

"First time ever that we did not paint our home. What a great experience working with Oscar Ortiz and his team. The 3 person team came on time and worked together very efficiently. They did an excellent job prepping the room, painting and cleaning areas as they finished. We highly recommend Ortiz Exceptional Painting, LLC ."

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.

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.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.
