"I have to compliment You on your service and, in particular, Arturo and his crew. I've had many contractors work on my house; in fact this is the third time in 13 years that I've had the trim painted. Without a doubt this was the best crew of people that have ever worked on my home. They were very nice to work with and the paint job was excellent. They did everything meticulously. Completely satisfied!"

Customers say: True professional

"It is rare these days to find someone so extremely hardworking and punctual, who always does what he says he will do. His house painting prep work was painstaking and detailed, and he carefully selected thee correct types of paint for each different surface. There were several rotten boards on my old deck that his crew carefully replaced, as well as repainting the whole deck. I was very happy the the job and would gladly hire Mr. Bautista again for future projects."

"We hired HandyMack to repair, paint and seal our porch, pressure washes the house, and clean the gutters and downspouts. I contacted HandyMack on a Thursday and spoke to Juri Rubio, Macks spouse. We set an appointment for an estimate for the next Monday. They showed up when they said they would and we discussed the project. I received an emailed estimate that night. We agreed to the to estimate and set a time for Mack to start the project. He showed up timely with everything he would need. Over the course of four days, all the work was completed and on budget!! We have a small front and lower porch and an average size back deck. He cleaned and repaired all three, making sure they were safe. I chose the color and he did an absolutely fantastic job painting and sealing the porches and decks with excellent quality paint and sealant. I am so thrilled with how the work turned out and have already spoken to Juri and Mack about other projects for the future. Payment: HandyMack accepts cash and check. That is fine with us, we were happy to save what we needed and pay for it! Work Ethic: What can I say, that man is a perfectionist. He will do the job correctly and will not stop until it is. He is honest and dependable with a cheerful disposition. As I said, he was here when he said he would be here, he cleaned up everything and when he left, it was as if he was never here...except for our now beautiful porches. Would I use again: again and again and again!!! Come back, Mack and Juri!! You are the only ones we want to work on our home :)"

"Fantastic experience from start to finish! I was so impressed by Steve and Michelle’s professionalism, promptness, and delivery. Their crew was on on time and left my place neat and tidy. They kindly kept me updated while I was at work. I would give them 10 stars if I could. My deck looks amazing! Makes me so glad that I did not do it myself! I cannot wait to contract with them again for my garage and rooms later this year!"

"I Hired Pro Masters to paint the exterior of my larger home in the Dacula, GA area. Christian was prompt with his quote and clear with the start times and how long the project would take. the quality of work was outstanding and his entire team were courteous, professional and show clearly that they take pride in their work. I have hired painters in the past that over promise and under deliver but this could not be further from the case with Pro Masters. My home needed a good deal of remediation and replacement of rotted wood as well as some window repairs and Pro Masters showed their aptitude at not only painting but carpentry as well! My home literally looks brand new after 17 years! The pricing was very fair for all of the remediation and painting that needed to be done. If you need to have your home painted or are looking for exterior repairs I could not recommend enough the professionals at Pro Masters."

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.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or refinishing the deck altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint.
