"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 FAQs, answered by experts

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.

You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.  

Yes, many fence repair services include finishing treatments like sanding, priming, repainting, coating, and rust treatment. These services help restore the fence's original appearance, protect it from corrosion, and enhance its aesthetic appeal. However, since offerings can vary by provider, it is best to confirm what is included before scheduling the work.

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.

Paint your fence, install customized fence slats, or attach a bamboo screen for a more appealing yard aesthetic. Paint can give your yard a unique and fun look, and adding fence slats gives you a classic fence appearance. Bamboo screens are probably the most unique option that can add a fun vibe to your space.
