Q: Is it less expensive to paint or stain a fence?

• <div><p>Staining a fence is less expensive than painting a fence due to the cost of materials and the longevity of the finish. Stain not only lasts longer than paint without chipping or peeling, but you also won&rsquo;t have to put in the extra time and cost to prime the surface first. </p></div>

Q: Why is my fence gate sagging?

• <div><p>A fence gate can sag for several reasons. The issue often stems from the hardware, such as damaged or bent hinges, or loose screws that can no longer support the gate's weight. The gate frame itself might also have come out of square due to failing supports. Alternatively, the problem may not be the gate but the supporting fence post, which could be leaning or out of place. In many cases, fixing a sagging gate is as simple as tightening the hinge screws or upgrading to more robust hinges.</p></div>

Q: Can I pull the fence post out with a truck?

• <div><p>While it&rsquo;s possible to remove a fence post with a truck and requires little physical effort, we don&rsquo;t recommend this method. You can potentially hurt others or yourself or damage your property or vehicle attempting to take a fence post out with a truck. Instead, use a farm jack or a pole puller to remove the post.</p></div>

Q: How much longer will a fence last if it is stained?

• <div><p>Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-wood-fencing-last.htm">help your wood fence last</a> 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&rsquo;ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.</p></div>

Q: How do you make a homemade pallet fence?

• <div><p>Making a homemade pallet fence involves marking out the fence line and leveling the ground along it. Then, install metal or wooden fence posts that you slide the pallets on top of (two posts per pallet). Fasten them together with 2x4 wood boards that act as an extra layer, keeping the pallet fence secure. </p></div>

They did a great job. House and garage was soft washed, roofs treated and washed, windows also. Decks power washed and sealed. Little paint came off the house. Not their fault, but they offered to take a paint chip, get the paint and come back to touch it up. Would hire again.
