"Great group of guys that communicated extremely well throughout the entire process. Cleaned up my entire side of my house professionally with paint chips or residue left behind. Would recommend them to anyone looking for professional results"

"It went great. John was very professional and responsive from the start. John came over before, during, and after the job to be sure everything was to our satisfaction. The team that worked on the painting were professional, did quality work, and it was all done very timely. The price was also what we were hoping for."

"We are so pleased with the quality painting work performed by the team at G & G Pro Painting. We appreciate the detailed work G & G Pro Painting did. They put significant time into the preparation of the walls, ceiling and trim. Now our walls and ceiling surfaces look brand-new! Brian and his crew work well together and work efficiently. The team is polite. They took care to cover our furniture and floors. It was a pleasure to have them working in our home."

"We recently hired Joe and Color Concepts to paint the exterior of our home and we couldn't be more pleased with the service and final look of our home. Joe is fantastic, presented us with several options and professional opinions along the way, completed the work under the proposed timeline and we absolutely love how our home was transformed! Extremely pleased and highly recommend Joe to anyone considering a home painting project, large or small. We are so pleased with Joe's work we are using him for interior painting again in the Spring. Highly highly recommend. - Matt Manda & Elise Stefanik"

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Overall costs depend on the fence height and length, prep work required, and labor if hiring professionals, ranging between $1 and $4 per square foot.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Maintain your wattle fence by inspecting it at least twice per year for loose weaving and degrading branches. Replace any seriously degraded sections, ensure water drains properly around the posts, and trim any sprouting branches if you used green wood. If you notice the weave loosening, you can often tighten it by gently pushing down on the top branches. You can also apply a natural wood preservative every two to three years to extend the fence's lifespan.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.
