"I got a response from Brian within about 2 days. He and his counterpart, Larry, came over and evaluated our home's needs. Brian explained the process and gave me an estimate for the work that they felt needed to be done. Brian emailed me the prices and the work that they would do. I felt informed and was treated with complete respect and courtesy (Note: this was important to me because folks in the building field have often been patronizing and rude to me. I have attributed it to my gender after watching them be more appropriate with my husband.) When I was ready they were here within about another 2 days. My house now looks almost new and we are very pleased! I had received estimates from about 4 or 5 other companies, prior to this, and their estimates were 2 to 6 times what Adobe Painting quoted me. This and the fact that the Angie's list rating for Adobe was A+ persuaded me to hire them. I'm glad that I did!"

"I'm so glad I found this company. They were quick to respond to my request. On time and got to work right away. We had them do a paint job and ended up having them do some stucco patch work as well. Both jobs turned out great. They are professional, friendly, and reasonable. We will definitely be working with them in the future."

"My partner and I hired Brian and his team to paint our stucco home with elastomeric paint. We are VERY happy with the results. Brian and his team did a thorough job of repairing cracks in our stucco, preparing EVERYTHING very thoroughly and then spraying and bankrolling the entire home. Every aspect was professional!!!"

"Van Meter Painting did an excellent, efficient, and professional job repainting my home. The owner - Mike - was courteous and professional, and was clearly knowledgeable about paint and was able to provide some valuable advice and recommendations. They were able to complete the job for a fair price within the expected time frame. I will be using Van Meter for all of my future painting needs. They run an honest business and were a pleasure to work with."

"Way more than painting! We initially hired Juan to rip out a ~400 sq-ft ceiling and the old Celotex tiles glued to it, (did I mention they were GLUED?) then install new ½ sheet rock with texture. We also asked him to create sheet rock boxes to hide pipes and provide structure for us to install recessed lighting. He and his crew did such an outstanding job that we hired him further to take out the old bathtub and tile, sheet rock an anti-room, create a closet to enclose the sump pump, spackle over cinder block walls to hide the seams andâ wait for itâ paint! If you wonder why this great work his business provided only rated 4.5 starts, it is because no one really trusts a review full of 5 stars. At least, I donâ t. But, you can trust Juan and his crew. They are quite focused on providing excellent craft with stellar (4.5 of them!) customer service. When adding this amount of work as you go along with your project, I recommend writing down all the little things to keep both parties focused. Now, I rest. If you hire Juan, so can you!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.  

An exterior paint job typically lasts between 5 and 10 years, though this can range from 3 to 17 years depending on several factors. The longevity is influenced by the quality of the paint and primer, the quality of the application, the local climate, and the type of surface being painted. For example, paint on wood siding may need to be redone every 3 to 7 years, while painted brick can last up to 17 years. Aluminum siding often needs repainting every 5 years.

Manufacturers use a different process and formula for exterior paint versus interior. The exterior formula has to withstand elements like temperature, UV lighting, moisture, wind, and debris. Interior paint doesn’t need to be as tough, only exposed to dust, scratches, dents, scuff marks, and the like.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

Shadowbox fence maintenance depends on the material. But for wood shadowbox fences, maintenance typically includes annual cleaning to prevent mold growth, resealing or staining every two to three years, and promptly replacing any damaged or rotted boards. Vinyl fencing, on the other hand, typically only requires annual cleaning with a hose to maintain its appearance.
