"We called Blue Sky NM Stucco and I talked with Alvaro Esparza, the owner, about getting a quote. He came out to estimate the job within a couple of days and gave us a fair and reasonable estimate for the work. In doing so, he thoroughly explained each step of what needed to be done and told us exactly how they would make the repairs in each area of the house. He also was very careful about specifying how closely they could color match the new stucco to the existing stucco color. We accepted the quote and Alvaro had his crew start within a few days. We had a few days of snowy and cold weather which delayed the completion slightly but as soon as the weather would allow, the crew showed up promptly to complete the work. At each step in the process, the work was done in a most careful and professional manner. We have composite decking material all around the outside of our home and I was concerned about having stucco splashed and spilled on the deck material. Alvaro and his crew made sure to cover and tape up every area around the house to protect it from any spills or splashes. We were quite impressed with both the quality of the work as well as the careful way in which it was carried out from beginning to end. After the work was completed, Alvaro came out and inspected the work personally to make sure we were satisfied with the work and that everything was completed. We are completely happy with the results and especially with the care and craftsmanship that everyone at Blue Sky provided.
Blue Sky Stucco is exactly the kind of contractor that we joined Angie's List to find. They are first rate professionals and will make sure every detail is finished to your satisfaction.

"First we had the patios stained. Aaron arrived promptly with his crew. The wood looked beautiful. I plan to add pictures soon. The wood was completely coated and we feel confident it will last for several years. Once the patios were completed the house was painted. We also have a stucco storage building separate from our home. We asked Arron to pick up two sample colors. He did not want to pick the color for us but he did advise which color he thought would look best with the trim color we chose. We appreciated his advise because the job came out beautiful. We noticed a spot that we thought needed attention. He returned the next day and even though the issue was not included in the cost he took action with no charge. Aaron was professional and responsive.

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 have a smooth, already bonded concrete surface, painting a concrete pool deck can be a great way to brighten up the area and add longevity. If the surface has another covering or a different type of paint has been used previously, you won’t be able to paint it without removing the existing coating. Wooden decks benefit from painting as it helps to keep them watertight. Quality pool deck paints also help make the surface less slippery and less likely to gather mold and mildew or prematurely crack.
The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.
Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.
You should seal your deck every one to two years, but you’ll also need to clean and repair your wood deck throughout the seasons. You may want to hire a local house cleaning service to sweep and clean the deck thoroughly. These cleaning services cost around $50 per hour.
Inspect your deck at least once a year, and if you notice any damage or rot, expect to spend about $10 to $50 for simple DIY fixes or about $2,000 for professional repairs on more extensive damage.
