"**Outstanding Experience with a Truly Professional Remodel Team** What began as a relatively straightforward job—just sanding and painting walls and trim—quickly evolved into a much larger project due to unforeseen issues. Throughout the entire process, this team remained attentive, accommodating, and the definition of true professionals. They handled every curveball with ease and expertise: from replacing drywall due to water intrusion and patching areas affected by plumbing upgrades, to completely rewiring the electrical system. They even installed pocket doors, adjusted existing door frames into beautiful archways, and managed all the painting and staining throughout the house to an exceptional standard. Their work didn’t stop at the interior—they also replaced exterior doors and addressed numerous other unexpected needs that arose during the project. Not only did they deliver quality craftsmanship, but their communication and willingness to go the extra mile made it stressfree. "

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in North Chicago, IL

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.
