If you have an old fence that needs a refresher, this is just the example you might want to see.  Here is a years old fence, sun aged and covered in years of dirt, looking for a facelift.

The first step was it got a good power spraying – which on it’s own did a world of good.

A few of the boards were too far gone to paint, so were replaced.  Then the painting began, with roller and brush, and the fence absorbed it all like water.  The first coat was slow going.

Down by the deck with a paint shield, all the nooks and crannies were done, as well as between the boards.

It was the second coat that really made the effort worthwhile.  You can see the difference here, with three board painted to the left and the rest in waiting.  All in all, this fence gobbled up 4 1/2 cans of paint, which might seem like a lot, but is much cheaper than replacing it outright, and this add several years to the life of the fence.

Once all was said and done, some pole caps were added to provide rain protection as well as a little contrast, and the signage was replaced to finish it all off, making for another happy customer, and that is the way I like them!
