Customers say: Quality work

"Amazing Experience!!! I cannot say enough good things about this company. From start to finish, Paul, the owner was an exceptional communicator. Responsive, professional, honest, and genuinely committed to delivering outstanding results. His crew was incredible: talented, respectful, hardworking, and meticulous in their work. The quality of the painting was absolutely flawless, and everything was completed on time as promised. It's rare to find a contractor who combines exceptional craftsmanship, integrity, fair pricing, and outstanding customer service, but this company delivers on all of it. I will not use another painter and will recommend them to everyone I know. Simply AMAZING! Keep up the fantastic work—you've earned a customer for life."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

If you paint a vinyl fence, it will likely stick to it for only a brief amount of time. This is because vinyl is not a porous material, so it's not an ideal surface for holding paint. Initially, paint will stick to your fence, but it will eventually peel off. Applying primer before painting your vinyl fence will help paint last longer. Certain primers are well-suited to vinyl, which means you can paint vinyl siding with the proper preparation.

Maintaining a composite fence is pretty straightforward, as it doesn’t require staining or repainting. To keep it clean, scrub the fencing with a composite deck cleaner or hot, soapy water. Use a soft-bristle brush for the best results, and avoid using pressure washers or sanders. Plan to clean your fence at least twice a year. Scrubbing the fencing in the fall and spring can help prevent mold and mildew growth.

On most untreated wood fences, there is no need to sand before treating. You typically only need to sand if there’s an old coat of paint or stain on your fence. If you do need to sand off a previous paint or protective coating (like an old stain or sealant), use medium-grit sandpaper.

Regular cleaning, touch-ups for small defects, and resealing or repainting every 2-3 years help to maintain a vibrant appearance and protection.

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.
