"This was an exemplary and professional job. The staff, painters, carpenters and managers were on the job until complete. Constant contact, updates and suggestions. Ernesto, Alberto and Gian were central to the success of this project. They truly are King of the Painters, bar non. Hard workers, diligent worker and professional workers. Work well together and helped each other achieve maximum performance and effect. My wife and I loved the end results and so do my neighbors. Thank you, The King of Painters, a job well done!"

"Nile Schmidt is a true professional. I had him paint the outside and inside of a rehab I purchased in late 2008. Almost 1 decade later and the paint job has held up very, very well as I had a contractor over recently who thought the work had been done in the last 2 years (prompting me to write this review). Nile is great and easy to work with and his team is prompt and meticulous. If you want quality work done in a timely fashion at a reasonable price, I can't recommend anyone better than Nile and The Painting Company!"

"I found them messy, left a lot paint on floor and did not clean after themselves. Also had a small repair on stucco, instead it became a major repair, and where they had scaffold to clean windows, they broke the stucco fence in driveway. that cost me $6,000.00"

Small jobs welcome

"We can not speak highly enough about Ben Lypps, both as a professional and as an individual. He does stellar work, paying very close attention to detail and going over and above to ensure the job is done correctly. Our home required a great deal of preparation and repair work prior to painting, which turned out to be more than Ben had originally anticipated, but he honored the price on the contract. He never complained about the extra work. Ben is super conscientious about showing up on time, and cleaning up after he left. He is a quiet, kind and considerate man, making him a pleasure to be around. We will use Ben for all of our future painting needs!"

"Saul and his crew did an excellent job painting the exterior of our house. They were clean, fast and paid attention to details. They power washed, repaired stucco, caulked all joints, masked, used drop clothes everywhere and painted stucco and trim. All painted lines were sharp and clean. They didn’t even damage any roof tiles. Couldn’t be happier and I highly recommend them."

"Steve was very friendly and polite. He took a lot of extra care even though it wasn't a big project. He communicated when he would be around, cleanned up after each day so you wouldn't even know he was there except for the extra stain on the front door frame and his quality of work was exceptional. I would strongly recommend him for any job; in fact, I'll be calling him in a year or so to paint the exterior of the house."

"Marco and his crew just finished painting the exterior of our house and power washing the roof. If we could give him 10 stars, we would! He does outstanding work with an eye for detail and no cutting corners. He kept excellent communication throughout the entire job. Marco and his crew were always on time and cleaned up after each day. Marco is a honest and hardworking guy, and his prices are very reasonable. We received a quote from another company, and it was quite a bit higher - even with the lowest quality of paint! (And the only way we found out about the paint quality was because of our own research). Marco explained and quoted us on different paints depending on what we preferred. He even lowered our price because he received an extra discount from the paint store!! In a nutshell, we highly recommend SD Pro Painting and will use them for any future painting projects."

Painting 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.

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.

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

Both a roller and a brush are effective methods for painting a chain link fence. A roller will make the job easier by ensuring symmetrical strokes and reaching the backside of the fence as well, which cuts down on paint time. However, a brush is often necessary for painting the base of the fence and near the posts due to its ease of reaching smaller spaces.

Staining pressure-treated wood is a recommended practice. While inherently resilient, it's not impervious to moisture and UV exposure. Staining treated wood is feasible and recommended for enhanced protection and longevity. Applying stain and sealant safeguards against degradation, prolonging its life span. These measures shield the wood from environmental threats while augmenting its aesthetic appeal, ensuring your investment endures the test of time.
