"Hired him to paint my metal roof on April 24,2020, and paid him the deposit of $900.00. I told him to be sure to have the roof painted before the end of September. Contacted him on August 20,2020 and asked if he was coming to paint the roof. Daniel told me he would be here the following week. He never showed up. Called him on Sept 21,2020 and left a message as to whether he was still coming or not. It is now Oct 5,2020 and I have not received a call or my $900 deposit back from him. Steer clear of this guy. I guess it is time to hire a lawyer to get my deposit back."

REDO Properties is the finest family owned residential and commercial painting company in Maine. We only use professional grade products and specialize in delivering superior finishes. We are the only REDO you'll ever need.
"We are thrilled with Redo Properties. We had to upgrade most of the interior of our house. Floors, windows and of course paint. We are so glad that we hired Redo Properties and Tux recommended that we include the ceilings. We did not originally think they needed to be done. The brightness the freshly painted ceilings brought to our entire interior was transformative. It made the ceilings feel much taller without the yellow halos that were showing before. He also was meticulous with the trim work and while the floors are great the new paint is what makes the renovations really stand out."

It's best to stain your new fence after the wood has fully dried, which usually takes about six to eight weeks after installation. Waiting ensures the stain adheres properly, giving your fence lasting protection. Staining a fence usually takes three to five days. You'll start by cleaning the wood and letting it dry for at least 24 hours. After applying the stain, you'll need to wait 12 to 24 hours for each coat to dry.
Paint lasts longer than stain—about five to 10 years compared to stain's one to eight years. Painting requires more prep work and multiple coats, but offers a durable, long-lasting finish. Staining is less labor-intensive and allows the wood's natural beauty to show, but may need more frequent reapplication. Consider your maintenance preferences and desired look when choosing between the two.
Yes, you should stain both sides of your fence. Staining both sides provides complete protection from weather, moisture, and pests, extending your fence's lifespan and keeping it looking good. If your fence borders a neighbor’s property, communicate with them about splitting the cost of staining both sides of the fence or work out an agreement that satisfies both parties.
