"Kara and Kevin did a great job. They arrived on time and laid out a plan in advance of completion. Each day, our home was left in very good order. They painted my kitchen cabinets and they are just beautiful. They also brought suggestions that we had not thought about. Great experience, beautifully painted interior."

"Excellent work, communication and pricing. Michael is very knowledgable, answered all questions, had great prices, and was always on time. We ask about staining painted beams in our home and he told us he hadn t done exactly what we wanted, but would research and try. He also gave us other ideas. Everything turned out beautiful and he done very timely. Highly recommend this business"

"Wow, I’d recommend this company without hesitation. I originally gathered a few paint contractor names from Angie’s List and friends and then got 4 estimates for several jobs around my house. I was impressed by the prompt and courteous response of Robin, Skip’s wife who runs the office. When we met to discuss the job, Skip himself was on time, knowledgeable and thorough (as are his written proposals - you know exactly each step that is taken - a good paint job is about 80% prep work!). His proposal came in a bit above mid-range of the 4; not the most expensive but I’ve learned you get what you pay for in painting. It was a no-brainer to hire him. He kept in good communication about start and end dates and followed through. In just over a day my horrid ceiling (water damage, peeling, buckling) looked brand new. I couldn’t believe it! Every job was done beautifully and I believe they may have left the site cleaner than they found it. It was the best painting experience I’ve had, start to finish."

"Santos, Kevin and the entire J & S team completed my project in one day and it looks amazing! My daughter purchased her first home (a one bedroom, one bath condo) and it desperately needed a facelift. J &S definitely took care of that for us. They painted her living/dining room; bedroom; bathroom; and kitchen (including ceilings and trim) in one day! They are truly amazing! If I ever need anything painted, I will contact them in a heartbeat. I will also recommend them to all of my family and friends who may need any kind of painting needs. If you have a project that needs painting, don’t hesitate to call J & S Painting. They are professional, kind, and prompt. They’re great!!!"

"Chris and his team were great. I had them paint our master bedroom including all of the trim work and doors. We have a huge safe in our room and they moved it along with all the other furniture and made sure everything was covered before they started painting. They were finished a day earlier than I originally expected and everything turned out great!!"

Painting FAQs, 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.

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

Pricing depends on prep work, paint/stain choice, area size, scaffolding needs, and detailed trim inclusions like precision-balanced windowsills.

Regular staining, sealing, and inspecting for rot or insect damage prolongs fence lifespan.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.
