02Why Crystal Lake Calls Us

Why Crystal Lake Homeowners Trust Us With Their Fences

A bad fence paint job peels within a year. Rotting boards get painted over and fail a season later. Here's how we do it so it actually lasts.

We replace rotten boards, not paint over them

Any board that's soft or rotted gets cut out and replaced with new wood. We don't paint over damage. That's why our jobs last.

Prep that actually matters

Old flaking paint gets scraped off. Rough spots get sanded. Bare wood gets primer. If the prep is bad, the paint fails. We don't skip steps. Our exterior painting crew handles fences the same way they handle house exteriors.

Paint or stain — your choice

Solid paint for full color and coverage. Stain if you want the wood grain to show. Both options are available.

Posts checked and stabilized

We check every post for stability. Loose posts get secured before any painting starts.

Weather-resistant finish

We use paints and stains designed for exterior wood. They hold up to sun, rain, and snow.

A Local Fence Painter Who Knows Crystal Lake

Crystal Lake has everything from old cedar fences to newer vinyl and wood privacy fences. Each material needs different prep and finish. We know them all.

We repair and paint fences in Crystal Lake regularly. The moisture from the lake and the freeze-thaw cycles in McHenry County do a number on wood fences. That's why we inspect every board and replace anything that's compromised. Our shop in Franklin Park is about thirty minutes south, but we're in Crystal Lake regularly for fence and exterior work.

Fence work is just one service we offer. See everything on our Crystal Lake painting services page or explore our McHenry County service area.
