"We had an exterior that was in very bad shape with some unique needs, P old hardy concrete board that lost it's paint. Owner Matthew researched with Hirshfield Paint store how to best paint the concrete siding. He did a thorough, high quality job in a timely way with great communication. We obtained multiple bids and Matt's price was better than most. We highly recommend this painting business. Matt is the real deal."

"Ron and crew was very professional and on time for the job. Ron's communication was great! He was very careful not to get stain on plants or building when doing our decks. Cleaned up at the end of the day. Also, went beyond expectations when scheduling us at the last minute. Did a great job. I would use Lakes Painting again."

"Jared was professional, courteous, quick and a great painter. I was very pleased with the job he did and would use him again and recommend him highly. His price was very reasonable also. The icing on the cake was that he went to Crosslake for the painting job! Very pleased!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

For the best results, you should apply two coats of paint to your wrought iron fence. Let your first coat dry for about an hour then promptly apply your second coat.

A dry lawn is easier to edge than a wet one. When your ground is wet, your blades will likely clump together, making a seemingly even cut while wet, but an uneven disaster when dried. Also, a wet lawn can impact your blade's performance and cause mud to kick up, resulting in a messy finish.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

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.

To prevent a fence from becoming dirty, hose it down weekly and after every time you mow the lawn. This will prevent algae from being able to feed on grass clippings. You should also wash your fence once per season and trim plants so they don’t touch it. As a precautionary measure, you can treat your fence with a coating of a mold prevention product.
