"The job was done in a proficient and professional manner. The painting crew came in and went over the work to be done to confirm color choices and rooms to be painted. We had already moved all necessary furniture and the crew covered everything with tarps. The work was done very cleanly and fast. The finished rooms look very nice and we are very happy with the final look. Thank you Big Sky Country Contractors for a job well done. We will be giving you a call on our next project."

"Chad and Scott did a fantastic job, from concept to completion of our project. We needed an interior wall, framing, door, drywall, texture, & painting, & all the details to enclose our kitchen from our entry. They understood our concept, and had the work done from start to finish in 2 weeks. Meticulous, detail-oriented, polite, & fun to have them here in our home are how we would describe our relationship with Chad & Scott. They even let us keep adding other small projects along with the wall construction, always being cheerful & accommodating. We would definitely recommend them to our friends & neighbors for any projects! Susan & Larry"

"The painting was meticulous. I am completely happy with Patrick's attention to detail in his painting and with David's professionalism in all business aspects. The communication among Patrick, Dave and myself was constant and effective. I am now a believer in Valspar paint because it covered walls, ceiling and trim beautifully. I highly recommend Fresh Coat Painting, David and his crew!"

"Brandon and Silus at Elite Finishes did a great job painting the exterior of our house on Ashley Lake. The house looks great. They were meticulous in covering up and not getting paint on anything that shouldn’t have paint on it. It has some very high hard to reach areas and they were creative and safe in reaching those. They did some extra little things I asked for, like covering up woodpecker holes, free of charge. And they were a joy to work with. We have 4 houses and have dealt with many workmen and these guys were just really nice, competent, and reasonably priced. We’d definitely hire them again."

"JJ and his team worked tirelessly on our 100 year old house in the U district and did a superb job. They started early and worked full days every day until the job was done. Most notable highlights were the extensive prep work and attention to architectural detail. JJ was determined to do a beautiful job that will last. And his bid on our house was very competitive. I would recommend him to anyone!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

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.

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. 

If it rains after you paint your fence, you may need to apply another coat of paint after the fence thoroughly dries. This will ensure a good seal if the rain weakened any areas of the paint. However, if your paint had enough time to dry thoroughly before it rained, you should have no problem.
