Q: Can you make changes to your neighbor's fence?

• <div><p>You can only change your neighbor's fence with their permission. A neighbor's fence is their property, and altering it without their consent could constitute trespassing or property damage, which may have legal consequences. If you have concerns or disagreements about your neighbor's fence, communicate with them openly and try to reach a mutually agreeable solution. If you believe the fence violates local zoning laws or property regulations, consult with local authorities or seek legal advice to address the issue through proper channels. </p></div>

Q: How long should I wait to seal a new cedar fence?

• <div><p>If your cedar fence is new, don&rsquo;t delay. Unlike treated pine, you don&rsquo;t need to wait months for the wood to dry out for it to accept stain. With cedar, the sooner, the better. Seal cedar within two weeks of installation to prevent the sun from fading its red color.</p></div>

Q: When should you not stain a fence?

• <div><p>You should avoid staining your fence during hot weather or when it&rsquo;s raining, because heat and moisture can make the stain dry unevenly. Instead, the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-time-to-stain-a-fence.htm">best time to stain a fence</a> is when the weather is dry and temperatures are between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Typically, spring and fall are the best seasons for a fence-staining project.</p></div>

Q: What time of year is best to stain a fence?

• <div><p>Late spring or early summer is usually the best time to stain a fence. Pick your timing carefully and aim to start your DIY when you see a forecast that shows no rain and low humidity levels for at least a few days. If it&rsquo;s too hot (like in the middle of summer), the stain will dry out too quickly. If it&rsquo;s too cold (like in the winter and early spring), the stain might not be able to fully dry.</p></div>

Q: What is the best paint finish for wrought iron railings?

• <div><p>The best finish for wrought iron railings is either a semi-gloss or a gloss sheen, as each offers good durability against rain, wind, heat, cold, and snow. </p></div>

In the course of this year, I have had these guys hang door, repair plaster, tile, paint, wallpaper, and repair a window sill. There is nothing they can’t handle! And now my bedroom is gorgeous.

The provider is meticulous in his work. Perhaps because of this, he is a little slow. Nevertheless, in all the jobs he has performed in my house, remodeling, painting, or repairs, I have been happy with the results.
