Cesar and his crew were very professional. They cleaned up incredibly well, the yard looked amazing after. They made sure the big long branches did not come down and hit anything- They went out of their way to make sure that nothing came down on the shed below.

Fence Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Both a roller and a brush are effective methods for painting a chain link fence. A roller will make the job easier by ensuring symmetrical strokes and reaching the backside of the fence as well, which cuts down on paint time. However, a brush is often necessary for painting the base of the fence and near the posts due to its ease of reaching smaller spaces.

Preparation includes cleaning the fence, sanding any rough areas, applying a primer if necessary, and ensuring dry weather for application.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted
Scraping away loose paint
Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris
Caulking gaps and openings
Priming with a quality paint primer
Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish
Adding a second coat
Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths
