"This is the second time we’ve had Wells Painting complete a project for our home. They did another fantastic job! They are quick, very responsive and wonderful people to work with!"
"It was a pleasure meeting and working with Tyler and Megan. They are very professional. We worked together on a quote which I was more than pleased with. They were on time and did an excellent job on my porch. It looks beautiful! I will be calling them again in the very near future for some other projects we are wanting to have done. I recommend them highly."
"Boone was very professional and friendly. He came out to bid the job the same day I contacted Angi. Gave me a bid before he left and the next day he arrived and put up the fence in one day! I highly recommend and will be calling him in the near future to do some inside painting. Great great service!"

Select based on wood type, climate tolerance, and personal preference for color and finish, with choices like oil-based stains for longevity.
Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.
You should inspect the area regularly for rust, clean it with a wire brush, repaint it every few years, and apply a protective sealant to prevent corrosion.
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.
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.
