"I hired Julius and his team for a concrete floor coating project, and they did an amazing job from start to finish. They were professional, timely, and paid close attention to detail. The floor came out amazing - smooth, clean, and exactly what I had envisioned. I’m extremely happy with their work and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality craftsmanship."

"I got several estimates, and the professionalism and price varied wildly! One contractor walked around looking at the place, and left....no measuring, no discussion about paint whatsoever, so I wondered what paint would be used, how long it might take, etc. The second contractor walked around with a measuring device and told me that he would get the paint...no mention of anything else. The next contractor sent a very detailed estimate that was over $5,000 for the 1,350 sq. ft. unit. There were eight rooms to paint, and this contractor charged extra for every color change over three, and around $75 for each change, which helped bring it up to that cost. When the estimates came in, one was so under-detailed, that it mostly said, 'Paint condo; 8 rooms'. Again, no mention of the paint, or it's quality, etc. That brings us to Fresh Coat. The estimator came out on time and ready to get to work. She measured all the rooms, and offered a service from Sherwin-Williams to help choose colors, but I had already chosen my colors and didn't need that. We went over all the color choices that I had made, and she recorded each room with the chosen color. She went over the paint choices and I chose the one that best suited my needs. Next, we chose a tentative date. When I got the estimate it was fair and accurate, and I chose Fresh Coat to do the work for me. Their schedule improved, and I met the paint crew two days earlier that originally scheduled, and that was good for me. The painters were on-time and dug right in removing lots of nails, drapery hardware and anything on the walls. They patched a few holes and some tears in the paper of the dry wall. The kitchen was a very dark red color. The previous painters had hit the ceiling with the dark color several times, and before the Fresh Coat painters started with the new very light color, they went around the entire room and painted the edges white to match the ceiling. After two heavy coats of the new color on the walls, we could still see a glimpse of that really dark color, so they did a third coat, and that did the trick. They finished the whole place in less than four days and did an outstanding job! I am very happy with the quality of the work, and the price, and would recommend them even to the pickiest people I know, and they would not be disappointed."

"RacPro responded quickly and sent a written quote which we accepted. We did have to wait for 4 weeks but Victor was very responsive to texts. He arrived early on the scheduled day, completed painting the fence and cleaned up the yard as expected. Victor is very professional and had pride in his work, we would use him again as the fence looks great."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

There are several ways to make a wooden fence more visually appealing and keep it that way for years to come.

  • Treat the fence with a wood sealant to protect it against the elements. It’s recommended to reseal a fence every two to three years, but if you live in a harsh climate, you may want to do it more frequently than that.

  • Restore the fence if it’s old, corroding, or fading. That includes cleaning it and making small repairs where needed.

  • Paint the fence in a color that you like, whether that’s a simple white or more vibrant option. Fences usually need to be repainted every one to three years.

  • Decorate the fence with planters, string lights, birdhouses, mirrors, shutters, and more.

You should repaint your fence every 1 to 3 years, depending on the appearance of wear and tear. Weather and usage will factor into how often you should paint another coat on your fence. If you need to replace a few fence boards or posts, you may want to consider repainting the fence to help protect the rest of the fence as well as the new pieces against damage and deterioration from being exposed to the elements.

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.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths
