"i desperately needed gutter cleaning the day before a major storm. I spoke with Dave initially and he worked with me to make it possible and sent out his crew by the afternoon to my house. His crew was so professional and worked very hard to make sure that all the work was done for me and they cleaned up and got rid of all the mess. This company could not have been nicer and helpful. I highly recommend them and am thankful that I found their business."

"Prior to selling our home it was suggested the interior be repainted. We contacted LTD and set a price and time frame which was extremely fair for both sides. All I can say is above and beyond expectations. Work was done prior to deadline and the quality was fantastic. Attention to detail, promptness, professional attitude. Job well done. Would definitely recommend and or hire again!"

"The project began with an estimate and the first scheduled task of power washing. My kitchen deck looks brand new too The next steps included covering windows and other outdoor prep. The house was painted and all of the equipment and prep was removed."

"Bart gave us a very reasonable quote, came on time everyday and finished in a timely manner. He was very helpful in choosing paint color and wood and satin for wainscoting (which needed to be built and came out beautifully) the paint and the floors look great and we would recommend him and hope to have him back for future projects."

"This company was professional, punctual, experienced, and had competitive pricing.  I contacted 5 local companies who had an A rating through Angie's List and was able to email them right through this site so it made it very easy.  Fresh Coat won the price bid and we were very pleased with their customer service.  Our main contact was Barbara and she was knowledgeable and friendly.  They set up a contract via email, and when I noticed that there were a couple of things missing from the contract that we had discussed, they rewrote it with no issues.  The whole process took a little over a week due to weather delays.  They arrived before 8 am daily and stayed late if they needed to.   Barbara was on site most of the time and was very accessible when she was not there.  They did a great job powerwashing, and like I said, they even washed up the driveway and walkway leading up to the house.   They took one day to power wash, and two to three days to paint the house and trim.  They needed another 2 to 3 days for the deck because they noticed two worn out boards and offered to replace the wood themselves.  That was great for us because we have 2 small kids, so we don't have a lot of time to repair the house ourselves.  They left their materials neatly in our backyard overnight so they could get a quick start daily.  They were so friendly and remembered our names and said hello to us when we would come and go.  They worked very hard and did a great job.  Our house looks 100% better!  Sebastian and Rafael were the main painters on our job and they were a pleasure to work with.  This company treated us like we were their only clients and like they'd known us for years.  They established a contract before any work was done, and divided the payments up into a pre-work deposit and after our final inspection.  They honored the contract and when we hit a couple of snags (replacing the deck boards and our forgetting to include the shutters in the painting request), they amended it and worked with the price increase to help fit our budget.  I would absolutely use this company again because they really take pride in their work and realize how important word-of-mouth recommendations are.  They know how to treat their customers!! Thanks guys!!

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Deck staining or painting safeguards wood against the elements through its protective layer, enhancing decay resistance, prolonging structural integrity, and improving visual appeal.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

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.
