"If I could give more than 5 stars I would. From start to finish my experience with Omar and Francisco exceeded my expectations. I called around to multiple different companies for an exterior paint quote, Omar was the first to respond, and came out to provide a quote almost immediately. Every other company wanted to schedule me weeks out just to provide a quote. Omar and Francisco are skilled, knowledgeable, and truly care about their craft. They were incredibly communicative, and made sure I understood every step of the process. They spent an entire day of just washing, prepping, and sealing to get my house ready for a paint job that will last a long time. They came by to provide sample colors and make sure I got the color that I wanted. They were clean, efficient, and even came back the following day to do some touch up on an area that wasnâ t painted because I had removed conduit off of the wall after they painted. Not only do these guys provide an incredible service, but they are two of the most genuine people I have met in a very long time, these guys truly care about making their customers happy. Omar and Francisco are hands down the best company to work with in the Verde Valley, and Iâ ll definitely be using them again soon."

Customers say: Quick response

"German and his Crew were top notch. They exceeded our expectations in staining our deck, barn, posts and beams. Their attention to detail was excellent and they were very easy to work with. They showed up on time every day at the time promised. The way in which they interacted was very professional. They kept their work equipment perfectly tidy. Arturo, the estimator, kept everything on track. Kelsey helped us pick paint colors for inside. You will appreciate her gift. We will want to use Certa Pro for all future painting needs."

"Noah and his team have been exceptional! Noah is a great communicator, timely, efficient, professional and very skilled! He has assembled furniture, completed drywall, paint, plumbing, and electrical work, hauled cardboard boxes to be recycled, and has performed numerous household tasks for me. He is affordable, accommodating, reliable, and trustworthy. Living 2 hours away from my second home, I completely trust him to get the work done and put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend Noah!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

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.

Most gutter painting pros also specialize in complete home exterior painting. You may save by making your gutter painting part of the cost to paint the exterior of a house in its entirety. Many people have all parts of their home exterior painted simultaneously to keep everything looking equally fresh. Consider having walls, trim, porches, shutters, and doors painted as well.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.
