Should you sand your fence before staining?

• <div><p>On most untreated wood fences, there is no need to sand before treating. You typically only need to sand if there’s an old coat of paint or stain on your fence. If you do need to sand off a previous paint or protective coating (like an old stain or sealant), use medium-grit sandpaper.</p></div>

How do you make a wooden fence look nice?

• <div><p>There are several ways to make a wooden fence more visually appealing and keep it that way for years to come.</p><ul><li><p>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.</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-restore-faded-wood-fence.htm">Restore the fence</a> if it’s old, corroding, or fading. That includes cleaning it and making small repairs where needed.</p></li><li><p>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.</p></li><li><p>Decorate the fence with planters, string lights, birdhouses, mirrors, shutters, and more. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Should I paint both sides of my fence?

• <div><p>If possible, it is beneficial to paint both sides of your fence to protect the fence more completely from the elements. Painting both sides of your fence will create a more consistent appearance as well. However, the time and cost involved in painting both sides of the fence may cause people to paint only the side they see.</p></div>

Q: Should you stain or seal cedar?

• <div><p>Staining or sealing a cedar deck will help it last longer. Cedar may be tough by nature, but without protection, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and mildew over time. Applying a stain, sealer, or both creates a shield against the elements, helping preserve the wood&rsquo;s strength and appearance. </p></div>

Q: How do you maintain a composite fence?

• <div><p>Maintaining a composite fence is pretty straightforward, as it doesn&rsquo;t require staining or repainting. To keep it clean, scrub the fencing with a composite deck cleaner or hot, soapy water. Use a soft-bristle brush for the best results, and avoid using pressure washers or sanders. Plan to clean your fence at least twice a year. Scrubbing the fencing in the fall and spring can help prevent mold and mildew growth. </p></div>

I had Home Solutions replace all of my windows and a sliding door. It was not a good experience at all. To highlight the worst parts: 1.Eric gave me a quote of $12000 of which $6000 was labor so $429 per window. He gave no contract. 2. If you don’t use his terms, he “doesn’t understand what you...

He just couldn’t get out and get the fence done this fall. He was very upfront with that. It was a good experience. He was one of the higher quotes and I think he was about $3,800 for a fence. He was great to talk to. I really, really like to work with him. It is just that it would take him a...

He was probably the lowest bidder. It was going to be later in September before he could come and get the fence done. He quoted me $2,000. I didn't choose him because of the time. He had forgotten what I had called him for. He thought that I was going to put up a chain link fence at first. He...
