Customers say: True professional

"Painting and so much more! Ernesto and his crew built our new composite deck for us. They handled everything--tear out and disposal of the old deck and construction of the new deck from the foundation up. It has transformed our back yard. They also rebuilt our wooden privacy fence with the same quality workmanship. We could not be happier with the work they have done for us and we will definitely be using them again in the future. We found out about Ernesto from another family who had him handle a major deck construction project, and that turned out beautifully. After seeing this we called Ernesto for a bid, and within a couple of weeks we were enjoying our new deck. If you're considering a deck or fencing project I highly recommend Ernesto and his crew. They are professional, prompt and they complete their work on time and on budget."

"Posting this as a referral/recommendation for Richard at CRG General Construction. We had them do: - Raise our deck 4 inches in the center (was sagging). - Replace a 10 ft. section of fence that was sagging and needed new fence posts. - Replace a 6 foot section of fence + new gate. - Power wash and stain ~250 feet of fence and our deck (8x16ft) with cosmetic touch ups to the deck (replacing handrails, balusters). Overall great job done, very responsive and done at half the price of other contractors I talked to. Only issue we ran into was rain pushing out our time to stain a couple of times in May. Would recommend for similar projects. He says they do anything interior of the house as well so give him a shout if you have a project you need help with."

"I was a little bit disappointed. He came out, looked at the house and estimated he would need about 6 gallons of paint. I went and purchased 6 gallons of paint. A few days later, his workers showed up. They painted the areas that I asked Mr. Vargas to paint. They skipped one area at the top of the gable in the house. It has an awning in front of the window. I expected them to either ask me to remove the awning, remove it themselves or paint around it. Instead, they left that part unpainted completely. They painted up to the side as they could without removing the awning. They stopped and left that part unpainted. They finished up, packed up and left. There was a minor additional cost."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

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.

If you don’t treat a cedar fence, it will turn from reddish brown to gray over time. You can keep the cedar from graying and retain its attractive, deep red color by sealing your cedar fence with a stain that keeps the wood’s oils in and serves as a barrier against the sun’s UV rays.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.
