This company was very professional. The work that was done is amazing. The project was completed in a timely manner. Everything that I wanted done was done right. They even cleaned up after themselves. The piece of property that I needed cleaned up had weeds that were peeking over a 6ft fence....

I live 1100 miles from the property where Jacob repaired my wind damaged fence. He completed the work in a timely manner and sent photos of the completed repair. Although I have not met him in person, I will certainly hire him again if needed for other repairs.

Painting was flawlessly executed. There was a seamless transition from wall to ceiling, almost to calculated precision. Not to mention the team was personable and extremely professional. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to a business partner or personal friend.

Jose and his crew did a great job on my roof and gutters, but did not finish the job of repairing and painting the stucco. He has been telling me each week for the past month that he would come back to finish it, but has not done so. He is not as reliable or trustworthy as I thought.

Fence Painting questions, answered by experts

If you have the time and the budget, we strongly recommend staining your fence, especially if it's looking a bit tired or hasn't been treated recently. While you may not see the same return on investment (ROI) as you would with a project like a kitchen remodel, staining a fence is one of the best ways to add a facelift to your property—a new fence stain adds serious curb appeal to your home.

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.

Select based on wood type, climate tolerance, and personal preference for color and finish, with choices like oil-based stains for longevity.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.
