Customers say: True professional

"Andy was quick to respond to my first call and was able to come and give us a rough estimate that same day. He followed with detailed estimate a few days later. He was very patient with us and answered all our questions and guided us to what was needed for our new tile for backsplash. The professionals that work with him for plumbing, cabinet painting, and installing counter tops were all very pleasant and were there when they said they would be or called if there would be a delay. 


Although going thru a remodel is always a bit of an inconvenience, the finished product was well worth it! We love our new kitchen and very much appreciate Andy and his dad for their help"

"I hired That 1 Painter – Central Iowa to repaint our kitchen, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. Samantha was a pleasure to work with — professional, friendly, and responsive. She provided a fair quote and was flexible with scheduling to meet our needs. The work itself was outstanding. Our kitchen has a lot of odd corners and detailed woodwork, but everything was painted with precision. The lines were sharp, and not a single drop of paint landed where it shouldn’t. The job was completed in one day and looked far better than anything I could have done myself. This was truly a hassle-free experience, and the results speak for themselves. I highly recommend That 1 Painter – Central Iowa for anyone looking for high-quality, professional painting services."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Both a roller and a brush are effective methods for painting a chain link fence. A roller will make the job easier by ensuring symmetrical strokes and reaching the backside of the fence as well, which cuts down on paint time. However, a brush is often necessary for painting the base of the fence and near the posts due to its ease of reaching smaller spaces.

Yes, you can paint a chain-link fence, but you don’t want to use spray paint. With the spray method, you’ll be losing a majority of your product to the air, given the size of the gaps in chain-link fences. Instead, use a paintbrush for your fence posts and a paint roller for the wire.

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. 

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.
