"An absolute 10/10 experience. The attention to detail was immaculate and they were great at communicating with us about everything from their timeline and delivery schedules to what to expect with the process. They were also incredibly considerate around working with our schedules and making sure we felt great every step of the way. The process from start to finish was really seamless. I work from home a lot and never once felt uncomfortable being alone with the guys. We'll actually miss having them around, they are such a wonderful group of extremely kind and talented people that take pride in their work. They put in the time and effort like they were remodeling their own home and we had such a positive experience. I can't recommend Innovation Painting and Remodeling enough, we will absolutely be going to them for any future renovation projects."

"Dave showed up when he said, completed all of the work as promised and even better than promised. The crew was professional, and always thorough. I hired him again after the first job for another roof repair, and my son will be hiring him after seeing the work he did. This is the company to go to."

Painting questions, answered by experts

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.

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. 

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.

Overall costs depend on the fence height and length, prep work required, and labor if hiring professionals, ranging between $1 and $4 per square foot.
