"Awesome!!!! Matt is a very respectable man. His painting skills are like no one else. He takes his time and his work is flawless. He especially shows how much he cares with the detail work he performs. He will always be my painter and I already gave him another job."

"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."

"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

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.

Staining a wood fence isn’t guaranteed to prevent warping, but it can help. Plus, it’s a beginner-friendly DIY project that you can finish in a few days. If you want to try it, you’ll start by stripping it of any old stain or paint, then sanding it. After that, you’ll clean it and spot-treat any mold or mildew. When it’s dry, you can apply the stain.

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.

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.

Painting or staining protects fences from environmental damage, enhances durability, and improves curb appeal with a fresh, customized look.
