"We’ve used Fix-it all for several projects the past few years. Mike was the guy sent out to remodel our bathroom. I’m very satisfied with that final result.
Joe repaired our garage door trim and seals. He did an excellent job and was done in no time. Very satisfied with that project too.
Kayan; Joe and Jesse just finished up our wooden fence repairs and did a very professional job. I’d recommend Fix-It-All for all your home repairs."
"I have been working with Trent for several years now. He always gets the job done right and I donâ t have to â manageâ him. He is well rounded and can do any project I put in front of him."
"Helped lead building of a steel building with multiple windows and doors, including 3 overhead doors. Job included framing in windows and door jamb and insulation and installing the metal siding and roof as well as some finishing work, flashing, J channel, etc. The building was strong and all windows and doors fit correctly. Working with a steel building was new for Alex, so he had a learning curve changing over from standard building but did a good job showing up and getting project done."

"We have nothing but good things to say about Calgone Coatings and the owner. Ms. Deitz went far and beyond our expectations. She painted the exterior of our home with care and detail. She was timely and very efficient. She also painted an ugly stone fireplace in our family room and gave it new life. She is a true artist with a paint brush! We appreciate her work as Iâm sure others will."
There are times when you should remove all exterior paint before repainting. This includes when you need to get rid of lead-based paint (which should be done by a pro), or if you need to apply a different finish than what’s already there. Your house may also have too many pre-existing layers of old paint, in which case you’ll be better off getting rid of the old layers first.
Most spray paints are oil-based, meaning you will need a solvent to dissolve them, like paint thinner, lacquer thinner, or acetone. While solvents can be useful in removing paint, they are also very flammable and require the use of a respirator. Beyond that, these products may smear paint and cannot be used on all surfaces.
WD-40 is an effective way to remove glue and other sticky residue from many surfaces, including wood. Spray the WD-40 on the area, allow the product to sit for a few minutes, then carefully wipe away the residue. As with other adhesive removal methods, test the WD-40 on an inconspicuous spot first to ensure it won’t damage the finish.
Yes, you can paint over old exterior paint, but success depends on the condition of the existing paint and proper surface preparation. If the previous coating is in good shape (not cracked, peeling, or flaky), you can paint over it with less prep work. However, for the most durable and professional-looking results, follow these key preparation steps:
Clean the Surface: Thoroughly clean the exterior to remove all dirt, grime, and mildew. A pressure washer can be very effective for this.
Scrape and Sand: If the old paint is peeling, cracked, or flaky, you must scrape off all loose paint. After scraping, sand the surface to create a smooth, even base for the new paint. Sanding is especially important for wood siding.
Apply Primer: Using a quality exterior primer is highly recommended. It ensures the new paint adheres properly, improves durability, and provides a uniform finish. If you are painting a lighter color over a dark one, a tinted primer will help cover the old color more effectively.
Some brands offer paint-and-primer-in-one products for convenience. Taking the time to prepare the surface properly will not only increase your home's curb appeal but also help protect your siding and extend its life.
The most common reason paint peels is because moisture gets trapped underneath it and disrupts its bond with the wall. Other causes for peeling paint include a poor original paint job, painting over a surface with dirt or other foreign material on it, or applying paint coats that are too thick.
