"Ron and his team did an excellent job power washing and staining my detached garage. I will plan to higher them when my house needs painting in a year or two. I highly recommend Lakes Painting and Power Washing!"
"I had my ceiling painted in my entire house. I had smoke damage from my wood stove and paint on the ceiling. The previous home owner had a little girl who painted her room purple and got some of the paint on the ceiling. Dwayne did a beautiful, professional job. I could tell that he is proud of his work and his attention to detail. There was no dripping. The lines where the walls and ceiling met were crisp. I was surprised he cleaned my house and moved my furniture back after he was finished. I didn’t expect that. I would definitely hire him again for future paint jobs."
"Dustin did some interior painting for me on my entire main level. We are thrilled with the work he did for us it looks like a new home. Now we are having them paint our exterior this spring as well!! Definitely recommend"
"My experience with Jared and Paula couldn’t have went any better and I love my new kitchen! They were on time, communicated daily even when I had a ton of questions choosing a color. I am so impressed with the quality and durability of my cabinets. They even painted my kitchen for free! I will definitely use them again in the near future!"
"I had Grant and Simon prep and stain my new deck. It’s a pretty large deck and they were able to finish it all in one day! Grant was very helpful and knowledgeable when it came to picking the correct stain and choosing the best time to do the work (weather permitting). They were very easy to work with and I would absolutely recommend Unshaken Painting for outdoor deck staining."
"Bob reached out to me to discuss the painting project I had in mind. He listened well and offered his thoughts in exchange. Bob is very amiable and easy to converse with and seemed as excited as me to work on the project. I did not hire any painters from the list provided to me due to budget constraints. Bob would have been my first choice because if his friendliness and his bid was the lowest offered and the most detailed."
"Project was an interior paint job with some wall repair. The crew was very careful in finding all the flaws in the walls and fixing them. The painting looks perfect. The crew was friendly, polite, respectful, and professional. The clean-up they did upon finishing the job was first rate. There were absolutely no stray paint drops, tape leftovers, and extremely little dust. They moved the furniture back where they found it. As a final review, Mike did a walkthrough with me to be sure that I was satisfied. I have another interior paint project that I will likely call EcoBlast Green for later this winter."
"Chrissy did an outstanding job on the paint project. She is easy to work with, prompt and very professional. I highly recommend her for your next painting project. She knows what she is doing!!"

You should stain both sides of your fence to get the full benefits. Fences often fall along property lines, so you may want to save a buck by leaving your neighbor’s side in the dust. If you do that, all you get is a slightly better view. Moisture and UV rays can still sneak in through the side that’s unpainted or worn down and damage your fence. Rot and rust will spread, even if you can’t see it from your side of the lawn.
An exterior paint job typically lasts between 5 and 10 years, though this can range from 3 to 17 years depending on several factors. The longevity is influenced by the quality of the paint and primer, the quality of the application, the local climate, and the type of surface being painted. For example, paint on wood siding may need to be redone every 3 to 7 years, while painted brick can last up to 17 years. Aluminum siding often needs repainting every 5 years.
Painting or staining protects fences from environmental damage, enhances durability, and improves curb appeal with a fresh, customized look.
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.
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’t have to put in the extra time and cost to prime the surface first.
