I highly recommend North Fence Company. Fabio came by shortly after my call. Measured the needed work, gave me a very reasonable quote, a few days later two of his staff showed up, installed the fence. The job was professionally done and my fence looks beautiful.

They replaced many clapboards and window trim that was rotted. They painted 2 interior rooms and most of the exterior (to be finished soon). They also repaired parts of my stockade fence at no additional cost. Work was done in a timely manner and they cleaned up after themselves.

Durable Fencing was one of the best contractors we've ever hired. Their price for fencing our yard was very reasonable, they were professional at every turn and actually did extra touch-up painting at no charge. Recently, they called us and said they "noticed some of the painting was fading"...

Fence Painting questions, answered by experts

You should repaint your fence every 1 to 3 years, depending on the appearance of wear and tear. Weather and usage will factor into how often you should paint another coat on your fence. If you need to replace a few fence boards or posts, you may want to consider repainting the fence to help protect the rest of the fence as well as the new pieces against damage and deterioration from being exposed to the elements.

If you don’t treat a cedar fence, it will turn from reddish brown to gray over time. You can keep the cedar from graying and retain its attractive, deep red color by sealing your cedar fence with a stain that keeps the wood’s oils in and serves as a barrier against the sun’s UV rays.

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.

For the best results, you should apply two coats of paint to your wrought iron fence. Let your first coat dry for about an hour then promptly apply your second coat.

The best type of paint to use for chain link fences is an oil-based paint. Oil-based paints are durable and will withstand the elements well. Search for an oil-based paint with rust protection and aluminum flakes to further protect the longevity of the fence.
