What makes me different to any other painter out there? \nWell..For starters, i dont do this for the love of money. I do this because i LOVE doing it. Painting for me, is like stepping into a whole other world. One full of creativity, art and endless ideas. I get sucked into every project i do, out of passion, not greed. Im hard working, a slight perfectionist and i just absolutely love making peoples home visions and ideas come to life. There's no better feeling in the world than giving someone else joy.. Not only do i go above and beyond but i do it at a price well within your budget. i fully got you covered with my quality of prep-work, ability to cut an edge, quality rollers and brushes, quality of priming, and finishing with 2 coats of paint, instead of 1 along with the quality of the paint.\n

"We asked to have our lake cottage rental painted. We were advised that scraping and priming was need to assure the paint would adhere properly and retain the paint over time. We appreciated the advice. The work was completed efficiently and we love the freshly painted look of our lake cottage rental."

Painting questions, answered by experts

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

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.
