Customers say: Quality work

"I recently had B & R Painting Home Improvement at my home, and they did an amazing job. The owner, Ronaldo Renzo, came with another painter and they painted the walls from my hallway into the kitchen, plus the ceilings. Everything looks super clean, bright, and professionally done. They also went above and beyond by fixing a hole in the wall, repairing a cabinet, and making sure a drawer that wasn?t sliding right now works smoothly. They were on time, respectful in my home, and cleaned up completely before they left. I?m so happy with their work that I?m already having them come back to paint my living room next."

Painting FAQs, 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.

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.

A cedar fence will actually last quite a long time even if you don’t treat it with stain. In fact, you can expect to get between 15 and 30 years out of an untreated cedar fence. However, if you want to preserve its color and extend its life, treat it with a combination stain and sealer every three to five years.

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