"TG Painters were great to deal with. From initial consultation last fall right through to completion this Spring! Tyler and his crews were on time as scheduled. Prompt, courteous and hard working. Communication during the project was good. They did a wonderful job painting the exterior of our home and staining our deck. SO happy with the results,"

"I hired Lenzen Pro Painting to paint the exterior of my home along with some stucco repair. They did a fantastic job. I am very happy with the results. Everyone at Lenzen is a pro at their jobs. I received a detailed itemized estimate which none of the other companies I got estimates from did. The person who prepped my house was thorough to prevent over-spray and catch any drips. The stucco repairs came out much better than I thought they could and after painting it's very hard to tell where any repairs had been done. Oscar, the person who prepped my house and did the repairs, also painted my house. It was done very professionally. Small imperfections and problems areas around the exterior have completely vanished. My home looks great. I will use this company again for my future painting projects. I recommend this company for its professionalism, great communication throughout the project and, quality results."

Painting questions, answered by experts

The process of painting or staining a fence typically takes between one and five days. The total duration depends on factors like the size of the fence, weather conditions, and necessary drying times. A significant portion of this time is for drying, as stain won't properly absorb into wet wood. You should wait 24 hours to stain a fence after washing it and allow 12 to 24 hours of drying time between each coat. The active work time is generally about one hour for every 10 to 20 linear feet of fencing.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

The best time to stain a fence is when the weather is dry and temperatures are between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Late spring, early summer, and fall are typically the best seasons for this project. You should avoid staining during very hot weather, like in the middle of summer, or when it is raining. Heat and moisture can cause the stain to dry unevenly. Likewise, if it's too cold, such as in winter or early spring, the stain may not be able to dry fully. Before you start, check the forecast to ensure there will be no rain and low humidity for at least a few days.

The best way to prepare your vinyl fence for a paint job is to clean it with warm, soapy water and rinse it with a hose or pressure washer on a low setting. Be sure to let it totally dry, then sand the surface before applying an epoxy-based primer. After the primer, you're ready to paint your vinyl fence.
