Ordonez put up my fence quickly; it looks great, and reasonably priced. Actually two of my neighbors called ordonez after he completed my fence and got their fences put up as well. If a fence is what you need, you won't go wrong with ordonez.

Great company and great folks. They were prompt in getting our fence installed and it turned out great. They are a local company and even reached out a couple of times after to check in on the fence. I would recommend them to anyone for fencing work.

Fence Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Regular cleaning, touch-ups for small defects, and resealing or repainting every 2-3 years help to maintain a vibrant appearance and protection.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.

Painting or staining protects fences from environmental damage, enhances durability, and improves curb appeal with a fresh, customized look.
