02Why Lake Forest Calls Us

Why Lake Forest Homeowners Choose Us for Fence Painting

Wood fences take a beating from rain, snow, and sun. Wrong paint or bad prep and it peels in a year. We do it so it stays on.

Full wood repair before painting

Rotten pickets, broken rails, and loose nails get fixed first. We don't paint over problems. If your fence needs structural work, we coordinate with our drywall and repair crew for wood replacements.

Pressure washed and sanded

Gray wood needs cleaning and sanding so the primer bonds. We do it all, top to bottom.

Exterior-grade paint

We use paint that's made for fences. UV-resistant and waterproof.

Both sides painted

Your fence looks good from the street and from your yard. Both sides get the same treatment.

Stain or paint options

Want to keep the wood look? We do transparent stains too. Natural color with protection.
