"We reviewed everyone on Yelp and Angie's List and got quotes from a half dozen companies for painting our home's exterior. Lenzen Contracting was the best price while also providing the most impressive estimate. They were the only company to present their business license and proof of insurance. They were the only company to provide a five year warranty to their work. Shaun is the owner, and he completed the estimate in a very detailed fashion. Where other companies wanted to charge extra for side gates or balcony railings, he included all of it. His son Rex was the contact through the process. His communication was prompt, detailed, and outstanding. He made three separate trips out to our house just to show us different paint options. When the process was slowed by weather, he was quite apologetic, even though he had no control over that. Throughout the painting, he made regular inquiries to ensure that everything was to our liking. Jose and Joseph took care of the painting, and they are true craftsmen. Positive, friendly, and efficient, they arrived early and worked late. Their attention to detail was impressive. We are extremely happy with the end result and highly recommend you use them."

"Ben is a real pro. He had to paint the entire inside of our house while we were living in it. He painted all the ceilings, all the trim (which was stained and he primed and painted all of it) and all the walls. He prepped all the surfaces beforehand. His lines are almost perfect. I chose Ben because he had all 5 star reviews and his record is still holding. You will not be disappointed when you choose Ben to do your painting."

"Steve did an outstanding job refinishing and painting our kitchen cabinets. He was meticulous about prepping the kitchen and his workmanship was first-rate. The spray painting went smoothly and because of his careful preparation, there was no paint on any surfaces where t didn't belong. He did a thorough clean up afterwards. The cabinets look brand new and we couldn't be happier. He is an excellent craftsman."

"We made two small bedrooms into one large room. Pete was professional and efficient. Everything was done to my wishes. He was here everyday and the work was finished in a very timely manner. He even showed up on a Saturday morning to make sure we were finish on time. Chris and her crew came in and finished the work painting all the walls. We are so happy with the outcome."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

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.  

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

Select based on wood type, climate tolerance, and personal preference for color and finish, with choices like oil-based stains for longevity.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

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.
