"My husband and I hired Vista SC Painting recently to complete some projects before we have the exterior of our home painted. The work that Vista Paint completed on our house was the following: 5 exterior doors + large front entrance door were refinished (sanded, stained, and sealed—front and back), they did a re-stucco and re-seal of the parapet walls, and they re-coated and sealed the roof. Bryan was very communicative via emails, texts, and phone calls; we value clear communication in general, but it is especially important during home projects where scheduling, logistics, and our specific requests and needs are concerned. Bryan also gave us a more favorable quote out of 3 quotes we got from other contractors, so we were pleased with his fair pricing. We plan to contact Vista SC Painting again fairly soon to schedule an exterior paint for our home and the wall that surrounds our property based on the positive experience we had with them."

"I needed the exterior of my house painted and needed it done soon. I contacted and received quotes from two other well-known painting companies and really was not happy with their estimate quotes. I saw Wildcat Painting Company, LLC as an area company and contacted them for an estimate. They not only came in with a lower bid but even after a couple of â no pressureâ recommendations from the job foreman they were still the best price. Alex was exceptionally good about working with me on this project and very respectful of me and my requests. The foreman and crew that painted my house were all very respectful of me, my time, and my property. No trash or messes were left behind, and I even had a hard time seeing where they had cleaned up. THE PLACE LOOKS GREAT!! And finished in, what I consider, record time. I am so glad I went with Wildcat Painting Company and will use them again should it be needed. I would and will recommend Wildcat Painting Company to others for their painting projects. Thanks Alex and crew!!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.

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.

Yes, you can limewash surfaces other than brick. Plaster, stone, stucco, and concrete can all also be limewashed. Any porous surface that will absorb the wash is a good candidate for limewash, although it won’t help much with waterproofing. If you choose to limewash over paint, you’ll need to prep before applying it to avoid a powdery, chalky finish. Shiny surfaces like metal or glass can’t absorb limewash, so it’s not suited for these.

If your cedar fence is new, don’t delay. Unlike treated pine, you don’t need to wait months for the wood to dry out for it to accept stain. With cedar, the sooner, the better. Seal cedar within two weeks of installation to prevent the sun from fading its red color.

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.
