"Excellent. Foster went above and beyond in every way. A difficult job due to limited access. He even chose a perfect match stain. Will highly recommend to anyone who asks. Price was 1/2 the estimate of another vendor. Cost of labor plus stain/sealer."

"Brock and his crew did a fantastic job. Since we were doing an extensive remodel, we were on a tight timeframe; but Brock was able to fit his crew into our schedule. Early in the process, he helped us pick paint colors, as well as offered suggestions for granite that would match our somewhat unusual kitchen cabinet color. The work took 6 days, during which Brock made several visits to check on the progress. His crew was friendly, courteous, and the job site was cleaned when they left. After we completed the renovation, Brock sent two guys for two days to finish moulding and do some touchups, which was included in the original price. We really couldn't be happier with the service, how the paint colors came out, and Brock's responsiveness to our questions. Due to the nature of our jobs, the easiest form of communication for me and my husband is email and text, which Brock was always very quick to respond to.

John DeAngelo was wonderful.  He explained exactly what they would do step by step and they did everything he said they would do.  They washed down everything and did not put bleached water on the brass adornments on the doors.  They also sanded the metal doors that were caused to rust by the previous painter.  Not only was the house beautifully painted but the shutters were painted as well (I'd decided to replace them but now there is no need.  The little fence and gate I'm planning to replace was also painted.  My house now looks wonderful and new.  I was told that they would use two coats of paint and at first I expected for something to be shoddy but to my surprise, nothing is.  I was guaranteed that the paint job would last at least 20 years and I believe them.  Without cost they even repainted my mailbox to match my house.  I was so pleased with the work I asked John if he knew anyone that did floors.  He said yes and when ready I will definitely consider his recommendation, and I would hire anyone he recommended.  The person that finished up the work was very friendly and since having extra time said for a little extra he would paint the deck, which he did.  He brought the receipt back for the cost of the paint and that surprised me. I was amazed that nothing was done under cover and he reported to John all that he did.

I would definitely hire them again...especially to paint the inside of my home.  Very good recommendation, Angie's List.

"Alvin and one of his crew, Reggie, painted our laundry room, kitchen, hallway, hall bath and a utility closet, 4 doors and all the trim and base boards. They also refinished some stained cabinets and touched up some worn areas as well. It was a pleasure to have both of these gentleman in my home. They were polite, professional, incredibly neat and quietly went about their work over a period of 2 1/2 days. When they were finished there was not one drop of paint in the wrong place. Reggie who has been with Alvin for 10 years is a master at painting trim. When I did a final check of the project everything was perfect. I definitely recommend this company and plan to hire them in the future."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Essential tools include brushes or rollers, drop cloths, sandpaper or power sanders, and appropriate cleaning supplies. Quality materials ensure long-lasting results.

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.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.
