"Five-Star Evaluation for SKY PAINTING, Inc. I am thrilled to give a five-star review to SKY PAINTING, Inc., led by Pablo De Los Santos, a member of the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Pablo and his team have consistently delivered outstanding service, as evidenced by my experiences with them over the past six months. Six months ago, Pablo did an exceptional job painting my downstairs. Given the quality of his work, I had no hesitation in hiring him again for my upstairs, and once again, the job was done to perfection. Pabloâ s high rating with the BBB is well-deserved, and I can see why he maintains such a stellar reputation. Working with Pablo is a pleasure at every level. He is professional, clean, and polite, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. There is absolutely no downside in choosing SKY PAINTING, Inc. for your painting needs. I will definitely use his services again in the future if painting is needed. Highly recommended! For any inquiries, you can reach Pablo De Los Santos at 561-506-0064."

"Steve is great and after his team painted one bedroom to start, I hired them again for most of the home interior (excluding bathrooms). Petra Painting was consultative & communicative, which really complemented their fair prices. It was a total crew of 5 people for the walls w/ high ceilings, and a 6th member was brought on to paint the ceiling and walk through for final touch-ups."

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.

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.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

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.

The process of painting or staining a fence typically takes between one and five days. The total duration depends on factors like the size of the fence, weather conditions, and necessary drying times. A significant portion of this time is for drying, as stain won't properly absorb into wet wood. You should wait 24 hours to stain a fence after washing it and allow 12 to 24 hours of drying time between each coat. The active work time is generally about one hour for every 10 to 20 linear feet of fencing.
