"There were 2 workers and they took down a 147' of wood picket fence. Installed 147' of 6' chain link fence. They built a 16' single gate and installed in one day. They cleaned up and put all debris in a nice nest pile. The next day a couple of workers came out and loaded up the debris and hauled it off. Great job!"

Carnival Custom Painting is celebrating our 30th successful season of custom painting, protecting and maintaining the quality of residential homes throughout Texas. With over 40,400 homes painted, we specialize in cosmetic updating, interior and exterior painting, by offering our customers quality service and value, professional supervision, uniformed painters, written warranty and satisfaction guaranteed.

"There is a reason why they have the reviews they do. We got a quote for the services we specifically asked for. Our house was painted new with watered down flat paint. We requested the ceiling be painted we could not decide whether or not to go a flat white or same color as the walls. Ron suggested to do a Flat white. Glad we listened to that advice. So the ceiling got 2 coats of ceiling paint. The walls got 1 coat of primer and 2 coats of paint. (Benjamin Moore). They fixed a lot of poor quality spots in the walls and ceiling. When I spotted a spot they missed they just got it done. No gripes or complaints just done! The workers (Alex, Nathan and Miguel) were great! Got the job done 1 day ahead of expected. When we are ready to have the other rooms done we will be calling you again."

"Steve arrived promptly at the agreed upon time to give us an estimate. He kept in touch with us throughout the entire process via phone calls or text messages. He was thorough and really knows the business (for interior home painting) He uses quality paint, and paints 2 coats. He gave us a written quote. We got bids from a few others and chose to hire Turner Enterprises. A paint crew was quickly scheduled. They showed up on time (actually arrived several minutes early.) Salvador and Jasmine were great. Very professional. They did an outstanding job. They really went the extra mile. The place looks amazing. Would hire again without any hesitation. SO glad I went with professionals. Whoever had painted it before, did a horrible job. Salvador and Jasmine corrected the previous mistakes and sloppy work, and made it look like new."

"If I could give zero stars, I would. We hired Mustang Fence through Angie’s List, and the entire experience has been a complete nightmare. They never finished the work, installed things incorrectly, and their communication was abysmal. Weeks would go by without a response. We called multiple times, set multiple appointments, and yet they showed up whenever they felt like it—completely ignoring scheduled times. They ripped out our old gate, left it on the property, and left holes in the wall unpatched. Screws were sticking out dangerously, and nothing felt secure. The keypad they installed never worked properly. The “0” button didn’t function, which left us locked out of our own property. For over a week, we couldn’t lock or close the gate, leaving our home exposed. Instead of fixing their defective installation, they tried to charge us an additional $750 for a worse replacement. On September 28, 2025, their manager Sam came onsite, saw firsthand that the keypad didn’t work, and admitted they weren’t “professionals” with that product. Yet he still tried to upcharge us $750 to downgrade to a basic lock. When we pressed him on why we should pay more for their own mistakes, his excuse was, “We wanted what the customer wanted.” That is not accountability. That is negligence. When asked politely to leave the property, Sam even stood in the gate to block entry. At one point, they installed a handle accessible only from the outside, leaving us forced to pry the gate open with our fingers from the inside, an outright hazard. For weeks, we waited for them to resolve these issues. Each time, they ignored scheduled appointments and came unannounced, at random times, with no respect for our time. Yes, the fence may look nice at first glance, but it is completely dysfunctional and unsafe. Mustang Fence is unprofessional, unreliable, and dishonest. They do shoddy work on their own terms, make excuses instead of taking responsibility, and treat paying customers with zero respect. This has been one of the worst contractor experiences of my life, and I strongly warn anyone: stay far away from Mustang Fence."

Fence Painting questions, answered by experts

How long limewash will last depends on the quality of the application and the porosity of the surface. For example, a limewash on brick will last five to seven years. If it's a home exterior application, exposure to specific weather conditions is also a factor. Limewash tends to develop a patina over time, and its natural look masks damage and imperfections well.

Wood stain is usually dry to the touch within 6 to 8 hours, but you should let each coat sit for 24 hours before applying another coat or applying a protective coat over it. If you applied your stain in high humidity or cold temperatures, you may need to wait up to 48 hours for the stain to dry completely.

Regular cleaning, touch-ups for small defects, and resealing or repainting every 2-3 years help to maintain a vibrant appearance and protection.

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.

Staining pressure-treated wood is a recommended practice. While inherently resilient, it's not impervious to moisture and UV exposure. Staining treated wood is feasible and recommended for enhanced protection and longevity. Applying stain and sealant safeguards against degradation, prolonging its life span. These measures shield the wood from environmental threats while augmenting its aesthetic appeal, ensuring your investment endures the test of time.
