"Five Star Painting was highly efficient and helpful throughout the process. Their explanations of the process, information on the procedure and paint/ stain choice, flexible scheduling, commitment to follow agreed-upon schedules, were welcome. They delivered a fantastic product, this with minimal interference with our own life routine, and at a highly competitive cost. I would recommand them to anyone interested in outdoor or indoor painting services."

"We are very pleased with the painting project Peters Painting Contractors completed in our older home (it was built in 1947). The crew are skilled craftsmen who were a pleasure to have in our home. They took the time to prep- repairing several areas of plaster ceilings and walls, sanding and cleaning baseboards and taping areas to protect non-painted surfaces. They used quality materials to paint two large rooms, the ceiling in a third room, and lots of trim. The result is beautiful! They completed the job promptly at a reasonable cost. We highly recommend Peters Painting Contractors."

"Kenzie did an outstanding job of planning and coordinating all aspects of the project, including arranging services such as a visit from a designer who brought paint swatches. The painter, Luis Ruiz, was definitely an expert, who did a flawless job of painting and provided extra services such as taking down and re-hanging mini blinds. I would recommend Ultra Painting to anyone who wants a complete, hassle free painting job."

Painting questions, answered by experts

An exterior paint job typically lasts between 5 and 10 years, though this can range from 3 to 17 years depending on several factors. The longevity is influenced by the quality of the paint and primer, the quality of the application, the local climate, and the type of surface being painted. For example, paint on wood siding may need to be redone every 3 to 7 years, while painted brick can last up to 17 years. Aluminum siding often needs repainting every 5 years.

Manufacturers use a different process and formula for exterior paint versus interior. The exterior formula has to withstand elements like temperature, UV lighting, moisture, wind, and debris. Interior paint doesn’t need to be as tough, only exposed to dust, scratches, dents, scuff marks, and the like.

Staining a fence is less expensive than painting a fence due to the cost of materials and the longevity of the finish. Stain not only lasts longer than paint without chipping or peeling, but you also won’t have to put in the extra time and cost to prime the surface first. 

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.

Acrylic latex paint is the best option to use on your outdoor wrought iron fence, because it holds up well against the elements. Use a high-quality, exterior-grade paint specifically designed for use on metal. You can choose between spray paint or regular liquid paint. As for primer, it's best to use an oil-based and rust inhibiting option before painting your wrought iron fence.
