Hello my name is Kylie, I have been in the drywall and painting fields for over 20 years. I am willing to travel over an hour from the Midland, Bay City, and Saginaw area for jobs. I do new construction and remodeling, full houses, additions, patch and repair. I am proficient in all aspects of drywall hanging and finishing as well as many different textures as well as painting. I am very easy to get along with and really listen to what the needs of the job are so making a plan that will be satisfying to the home owner.

"We bought a house whose maintenance had been neglected over the years. The smell inside the house was bad and we knew that the whole inside of the house would need to be repainted. The original painter we hired backed out at the last minute and we needed to find a reputable painter immediately. Turned to Home Advisor and found several that were listed. Looked at reviews and decided to contact Bill Searle Painting. We are so glad that we did! Bill and his crew came in on short notice and repainted the whole inside of the house, including the doors! The bad smell was almost gone (completely gone after floors were redone). The paint job they did was absolutely fantastic and we cannot say enough about how great of a job they did. We also hired them to power wash the outside of the house and to stain the front deck of the house. Their work is outstanding! They impressed our son and his family enough to hire them to paint the inside of their home. We will have some other projects to do next year and we plan to contact Bill and have him come back to do the work. Do not hesitate to contact Bill if you need any painting or staining work that needs to be done!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Paint your fence, install customized fence slats, or attach a bamboo screen for a more appealing yard aesthetic. Paint can give your yard a unique and fun look, and adding fence slats gives you a classic fence appearance. Bamboo screens are probably the most unique option that can add a fun vibe to your space.

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.

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.

Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.

Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can help your wood fence last 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You’ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.
