Fence Staining & Restoration DetailsBuilt on prep,
not on shortcuts.
Anyone can roll paint on a wall. What separates a five-year finish from a fifteen-year one is what happens before the first coat and how carefully the crew treats your home along the way.
Prep that earns the finish
Washing, scraping, sanding, filling, caulking, and priming come before color. Bay Area weather punishes shortcuts, so we do not take them on any surface.
The right product for the surface
Stucco, redwood siding, shingle, cabinet doors, and pressure-treated decking each need a different coating. Jose Gonzalez specifies the product before quoting the work.
Your home stays protected
Floors covered, furniture moved and wrapped, hardware removed, landscaping shielded, edges masked. We clean up daily so you can live in the house while we work.
The same crew, start to finish
You meet the people doing the work and see them again tomorrow. No rotating subcontractors, no handing your project off to a name you have never heard.
Honest scoping up front
We tell you what actually needs painting and what does not. If a surface needs repair before coating, that is in the estimate, not a surprise mid-job.
We finish what we start
Final walkthrough, punch list, touch-ups, and leftover paint labeled for your future use. The job is done when you say it looks done.
