"Fantastic, We just purchased our new home and I had painted as much as I could but we really needed a professional to come in and take over the larger rooms and ceilings with trim detail and window trims. Joe was very professional, he was able to work with our budget and offer us a great deal. His work is fantastic, great attention to detail and went the extra mile to really finish the work to a high standard. He clearly takes great pride in his work and it shows. He works very clean you can hardly tell he was even here each day. We will highly recommend Precision Pros, thank you"

"The Village of Orleans is extremely pleased with the exceptional kitchen renovations completed by M&R at the Orleans Municipal Building. From start to finish they demonstrated outstanding professionalism, attention to detail, and craftsmanship. The scope of the project included installing new flooring, countertops, cabinet hardware, and a fresh coat of paint on the walls and cabinets. The results have transformed the space, giving it a modern, refreshed look. Communication was clear throughout with any questions or adjustments addressed promptly and respectfully. We are extremely satisfied with the results and will definitely be hiring M&R again for future projects!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again. 

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

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. 

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.
