"I am very happy with the look of the finished project. When I bought this home, I thought the tub was simply dirty when in reality the finish was completely gone and so was stained. I also didn't like the color of the tiles surrounding the tub. After we did a lot of the prep work, i.e removing the faucets, caulking and glass enclosure, Bob came in and did his thing. He needed to come back to address a few issues, i.e. paint runs, but did so and they look much better. One thing I would recommend to anyone thinking about resurfacing - the paint smell is really terrible! I didn't think I would be able to sleep in my house that night (it was November mind you and cold!) If you have a trip planned or somewhere else to stay for a day or two, it's something to consider. I'll be curious to see how this holds up over time, but Bob does warrant his work for 5 years as long as something the owner does hasn't caused the surface to fail."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

You can weather a new wood fence by applying vinegar with steel wool as a way to fade some of the coloring. You may also find it easier to stain your entire fence a new color instead of trying to get newer fence boards to match an older one.

Manufacturers use a different process and formula for exterior paint versus interior. The exterior formula has to withstand elements like temperature, UV lighting, moisture, wind, and debris. Interior paint doesn’t need to be as tough, only exposed to dust, scratches, dents, scuff marks, and the like.

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.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.
