"We hired I&C Painting Services to stain our log cabin and paint our porches this past fall. We were extremely satisfied with their work. Carmelo and his crew did an outstanding job prepping the surfaces the right way without cutting any corners and accomplishing the staining and painting jobs in record time. They went above and beyond our expectations. We highly recommend I&C Painting Services for all your painting needs!!!"

"We had such a great experience working with Matt Casanova. He took the time to help us find the absolute best deal on paint for our nursery and made sure we felt confident in our choice. He was super helpful, kind, and really worked to get us the best price possible. We truly appreciate his effort and would definitely recommend him!"

"Briones is a great family-run business. They repainted the walls, ceilings, cabinets, and trim of our entire home. They also removed the popcorn ceilings for us. Pricing was fair, and they were quick and responsive; I got my quote on Saturday, they started work on Monday, and they were finished with the entire home by Monday the following week. Jose was helpful in offering color input and was patient with us when we needed more time to determine cabinet colors. He also repaired drywall in several places for us. The painters bagged up all the trash/debris from the project and cleaned up the house when they were done. The only thing they could have done to make the experience even better was haul the trash away for us! Overall, I’m extremely pleased with Briones Painting Services and would love to work with them again in the future. I will recommend them next time someone I know has a paint project."

"Nathan was amazing. He painted our very difficult 15’ ceiling. He didn’t tape anything. He did it all free hand. It was like Michelangelo painting the Sistine ceiling.☺️. Nathan is a perfectionist. Will definitely call him when we want the house exterior done."

"I hired Greyrock Solutions to complete landscape lighting for me, and they nailed it! I've wanted to venture out and get some new lighting in my yard and I wasn't sure on the specifics- I just knew what I wanted it to look like- and Leslie, the owner, was able to take what little information I gave her and was able to make my yard look fantastic and I have had many people ask who did the lighting on my yard! Hands down- these are some awesome people to work for you and they make sure to go the extra mile to make sure the customer is happy!!! A++++ AND WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Limewash and whitewash are two techniques used to give brick a light, matte finish, but they differ in composition, application, and permanence. The best choice depends on your aesthetic goals and the specific surface.

Composition

  • Limewash: A natural and environmentally friendly option made from limestone, water, and sometimes pigments. It is breathable and soaks into porous surfaces like brick.

  • Whitewash: Traditionally made from lime, water, chalk, and binders, but a similar look can be achieved with watered-down white paint. It is paint-based and sits on top of the surface.

Appearance and Finish

  • Limewash: Provides a natural, textured appearance that allows the brick's character to show through. It offers a more traditional finish.

  • Whitewash: Creates a softer, more opaque finish, often used for a rustic or shabby-chic style.

Application and Permanence

  • Limewash: Is semi-permanent and can be removed, making it a good choice if you might want to change the look in the future. It requires more skill to apply and cannot be used on previously painted brick.

  • Whitewash: Is a more permanent solution. It is more forgiving to apply and can be used on painted brick. However, because it sits on the surface, it can trap moisture.

Ultimately, if you want a breathable, natural, and reversible finish for unpainted brick, limewash is a great option. If you need a more permanent, opaque coating that can be applied over painted surfaces, whitewash is the better choice. Whitewashing may also be more economical, costing approximately $1.40 to $4.20 per square foot.

The opposite is actually true: Wood stains tend to appear lighter when they’re fully dry. However, stains may darken as they weather and oxidize with age. Stains might also darken on surfaces left in direct sunlight, as UV rays can break down pigment particles and cause them to darken over time.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.
