"Moving the furniture was a bit of a challenge for these folks, but they got it done in a week's time. Plus moved the furniture back. Most paint companies will tell you to empty out the house and then we'll paint it. They had a bit of trouble with the paint matching, but that was Home Depot who mixed the paint. The paint job came out pretty good for changing the color on the walls and making the paint all match up, plus they left me a gallon of wall and trim paint for future touchups."

"We hired JL Drywall and Construction Unlimited LLC to install drywall in a kitchen that'd been torn out down to the studs. Hiring John's company has been one of the best decisions that we've made. We scheduled an appointment for an estimate and John showed up on time. The scope of work was discussed and John sent us a quote the following business day. He worked in the home for 3 days. Each day he showed up exactly when he said he'd be there. Prior to starting the work, he taped paper on the floors in order to protect them. He worked diligently, cleaning up along the way. His prep work, applying mud to the drywall seams and over the screws, was impeccable. He also fixed several areas where work had previously been improperly done. Every wall that he worked on is now perfect! If you need drywall work, popcorn removal, or painting, I urge you to consider hiring JL Drywall and Construction Unlimited LLC for the job. His work is beautiful, he shows up when he says he will, he communicates"

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Typically, a fence requires one to two coats of stain. The exact number can vary depending on the porosity of the wood. For specific guidance, it's best to check the manufacturer's instructions. After applying the first coat and letting it dry completely, you can assess the finish. If it appears patchy, uneven, or you want a more saturated color, a second coat is recommended. An extra coat can also help cover lap marks.

Staining a fence is less expensive than painting a fence due to the cost of materials and the longevity of the finish. Stain not only lasts longer than paint without chipping or peeling, but you also won’t have to put in the extra time and cost to prime the surface first. 

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

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.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.
