"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."

"Employees were very personable and did excellent work. It's the second time that they have either painted or stained for me and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. I never even bothered to look for another company because I was so pleased the first time around."

"We are very impressed and pleased with working with Drew and his crew from our first meeting to the last walk around with Drew. They listened to what we pictured in our minds then guided us through the process of selecting colors. Drew and his crew started by pressure washing our home. Then they came and rapidly and professionally prepped our home for painting. Next the came and painted our home with the three colors we picked for different areas of the exterior of our home. They are great young men who worked not stop, always cleaned up at the end of the day. The entire process took four days. We have Cedar siding, many wood framed windows and cement block lower all being painted with three different stain and paint colors. They were courteous and positive and seemed to enjoy the work they did so well. We are completely satisfied with their professionalism and beautiful job they did on our home. John Bigham. Mankato Mn"

Customers say: Terrific value

"I canâ t say enough good things about Andy and his guys. From the very beginning, Andy was an awesome communicator, friendly, personable, and was extremely thoughtful about making sure that weâ re happy. He gave us fair pricing, all of the guys worked hard, and they got it done really quickly. The results absolutely blew us away. Their painting has allowed us to fall in love with our home, and I will recommend these guys to everyone I know. Thank you so much to Andy and your team!!"

"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

If you have the time and the budget, we strongly recommend staining your fence, especially if it's looking a bit tired or hasn't been treated recently. While you may not see the same return on investment (ROI) as you would with a project like a kitchen remodel, staining a fence is one of the best ways to add a facelift to your property—a new fence stain adds serious curb appeal to your home. 

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.

You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.  

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

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.
