"Ron the painter exceeded my expectations. They arrived on time and were cordial as they prepared to work. They were efficient, thorough, and professional. While they were painting, their workspace was kept clean. When the painting was completed, they checked for drips and cleaned any they found. When they left there was no sign that they had been here other than a beautiful freshly painted 20 foot ceiling. Thank you, Ron, for a job well done! I will be using Ron the Painter again!"

"We used Pedro's and couldn't be more satisfied!!! His teams were friendly, polite, prompt and very good at what they do. My husband and I tried to do the work ourselves, unsuccessfully. Pedro's team not only had to prime and paint the interior of our home they had to repair the horrible mud job we did. Pedro explained what need to be done and quoted a price that was quite fair. They covered EVERYTHING with sheeting, including appliances, even though not having to paint that side of the kitchen. When they were finished they left my house spotless, including the floors. The team did everything Pedro said they would and my home looks great again. We would happily use them again and recommend them to friends!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Routine staining or sealing and periodic inspections to extend life.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can help your wood fence last 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You’ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.

The process of painting or staining a fence typically takes between one and five days. The total duration depends on factors like the size of the fence, weather conditions, and necessary drying times. A significant portion of this time is for drying, as stain won't properly absorb into wet wood. You should wait 24 hours to stain a fence after washing it and allow 12 to 24 hours of drying time between each coat. The active work time is generally about one hour for every 10 to 20 linear feet of fencing.

Typically, a fence requires one to two coats of stain. The exact number can vary depending on the porosity of the wood. For specific guidance, it's best to check the manufacturer's instructions. After applying the first coat and letting it dry completely, you can assess the finish. If it appears patchy, uneven, or you want a more saturated color, a second coat is recommended. An extra coat can also help cover lap marks.
