"My experience with ALR Painting was excellent. Alex was on time everyday and took the utmost care in painting the exterior of my house and my workshop. My house looks amazing. Alex even helped me with my color choices which alleviated a lot of the stress of picking the correct colors. I would highly recommend him to all my friends and family. A++"

"Rick Davis was very personable.  He was prompt returning any phone calls or addressing any color or paint concerns.  He provided our bid for the exterior painting in July before our siding was completed so we planned on scheduling after the siding was completed which was the end of August.  We requested a bid to stain our newly installed back fence the first day his crew came out for the exterior preparation and accepted his proposal.  His crew did a great job preparing the exterior for paint and protecting our new landscaping and concrete.  They completed the entire house in one day and returned the next for minor touch up and to stain the fence.  Rick was very thorough in communication throughout the whole process and our house looks awesome.

"Our house had not been painted in decades and we were selling it and obviously want it to look nice. Frank and his crew were great, they did everything on time, on schedule and with very little disruption. The house looked fantastic and sold within days, I am sure not in small part to their great work. We were very impressed with their professionalism, care with everything, and willingness to explain what was going on. There is no doubt they take pride in their work. We would hire them again and in fact will be for the house we bought. Highly recommend."

"I had two areas of concern: installed new worklights in the garage and replacing electric switches and outlets.  Jerry did a great job taking care of the needed work.  He was friendly, chatty, but stayed on task and finished the necessary assignments. 
I also had a dry rot problem; Jerry showed up early, with another worker to assist and got right to work.  He tore down (?) the infected areas, replaced the plywood, a good number of slats, and repaired the base of a support column.  He was sure to do all the finish work (caulking) and sealing where needed.  
After he finished, my only 'job' was to apply primer and then paint the new areas.  It turned out looking really good.  I was impressed with the way Jerry got to work, cleaned up when finished, and checked the work he had done to see if it was all to my safisfaction.  It was.
 I did think that the work done indoors (the electric work) was a bit high, but then Jerry charged less than expected for the outside work, thus sorta evening out the amount paid.  
Overall, I was well pleased and would not hesitate to use Jerry's services again.

"They worked hard removing all the finish and applying the first coat of stain and sealant. They have come back two more time to sand and reveal to ensure a smooth finish as requested. They are always on time. I would reuse their service Nice people

"Martis Concepts was recommended by a friend.  We had Martis Concepts paint our master bedroom suite first.  I wanted to test his work on a smaller project.  Our bedroom has 10 foot ceilings a 15 foot inset in the center.  There is a seatee area that has an entry with columns and built in book shelves that cover one wall.  The woodwork turned out beautiful.  The columns and the bookshelf are like they were done at a factory.  He also painted a contract color on the inset ceiling which turned out perfectly.  The paint job is so impressive.    
    Since I was so happy with the master bedroom I contracted Martis to do the rest of the 2013 project.  Downstairs was the living room, den, dining room, entry and spiral staircase.  Twenty foot ceilings with eight inch crown and six inch floor moldings.  Eight doors, two are paned.  Four columns support the stair landing.  The oak spiral staircase was also painted.  The living room fireplace has built in cabinets that open to a wet bar on one side and TV and Stereo cabinet on the other.  Bookshelves flank both sides of those cabinets.  There was an inset mirror above the fireplace.  Martis removed the mirror and retextured the walls adding a tube to thread electrical wiring to the TV which is now mounted over the fireplace.  Also above the fireplace are two large insets that were painted an accent color.  New fans were installed in every room.
    Upstairs were three large bedrooms with walk-in closets, built in desks and bookshelves and each bedroom has a bathroom.  All three rooms were painted as well as all of the woodwork.  Bathroom has new granite installed.  Emanual is a perfectionist and without requesting painted the closets walls the color with all of the shelving white.  They turned out so impressive.  Finally, another staircase leading down to the kitchen was also painted including the railing which was originally oak.  
    I don't mean to go on and on but I feel a need to outline the complexity of the project.  The cost was very reasonable compared to the amount of work that was required.  Also, we used the highest grade paint and had custom colors created.  The work was excellent.  I am so happy we used Martis Concepts.  One thing that can't go unmentioned, we had a piece of crown molding at the top of the circular wall above the staircase.  The installation was not done properly and it was sagging.  Emanual fixed that and using plaster actually molded over where it was originally pieced together.  It looks like one piece of molding and I can't tell where it was repaired.   Words can't truely explain my pleasure with the job.  We will be remodeling our kitchen next summer and I will certainly ask Martis Conepts to do the work.  I wouldn't think of using anyone else.

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.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

You should refinish your deck to maintain its appearance, durability, and longevity. Refinishing your deck protects the wood from foot traffic and the elements. It also helps extend its life span by keeping rot, mildew, and termites at bay. By maintaining your deck, you can avoid the cost of replacing your deck sooner. A refinished deck also looks great and restores some of its original beauty.

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.
