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

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. 

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

The best finish for wrought iron railings is either a semi-gloss or a gloss sheen, as each offers good durability against rain, wind, heat, cold, and snow. 

If your cedar fence is new, don’t delay. Unlike treated pine, you don’t need to wait months for the wood to dry out for it to accept stain. With cedar, the sooner, the better. Seal cedar within two weeks of installation to prevent the sun from fading its red color.
