"Erivan and his team were super responsive and responsible and great to work with. They did really high quality work for us, and I loved the result. They have been painting for years, and were referred to me from a friend who had them paint his historic Somerville home with many details. The team was always on time, and they were great problem solvers when things inevitably came up (we ran out of paint, for example). I was also impressed that they painted all the trim perfectly without painters tape :) Their work included doing some light spackling of wall cracks, and removal of shades before they started. Finally, they were super fast!"

"Work was performed exactly as discussed and agreed to (match existing paint colors) at estimated cost. Start was delayed at our request due to high heat and humidity, with no complaints. Work was further delayed through no fault of Arch Painting due to continuous wet weather. Once a good weather window finally occurred, the work was performed quickly with no impact on us. We were totally satisfied with the quality of the work and the finished product."

"Al and his team at Essential Painting were fantastic. They painted the interior of our house, stained the front door, pressure washed the deck and pool patio, and repaired the deck. They provided a detailed proposal at a competitive price. They were prompt and completed the work as scheduled. They did an excellent job. The team was friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend them."

"I highly recommend Evolution Painting. We had carpentry work that needed to be done as well as staining the house. When a couple of unforeseen items popped up, they were taken care of as well. Each day, when they left you would never know they were there...excellent clean-up. My house looks great!"

Customers say: Quality work

"I recently had B & R Painting Home Improvement at my home, and they did an amazing job. The owner, Ronaldo Renzo, came with another painter and they painted the walls from my hallway into the kitchen, plus the ceilings. Everything looks super clean, bright, and professionally done. They also went above and beyond by fixing a hole in the wall, repairing a cabinet, and making sure a drawer that wasn?t sliding right now works smoothly. They were on time, respectful in my home, and cleaned up completely before they left. I?m so happy with their work that I?m already having them come back to paint my living room next."

"I highly recommend Urbano Painting. They applied solid stain to the cedar siding and trim of our two-story colonial and performed some repair and replacement carpentry - at a price that was lower than all but one of the quotes I received. All of their work was impeccable. Jocimar and his whole team are a pleasure to deal with and went the extra mile to ensure our complete satisfaction. Everything was done with a high degree of professionalism, from prep work to staining to daily cleanup. The whole experience exceeded my expectations, and I hope to hire them again for interior painting."

"Shay and his team did an amazing job painting the interior of my new townhome. He was very helpful from the initial quote to the finished product, and he maintained clear communication throughout the entire process. The interior of my home is very tricky with 30ft ceilings in some sections, and Shay got all 2,200 sq ft done quickly over the Memorial Day holiday so Iâ d have a fresh start before unpacking my boxes. I canâ t thank him and his team enough."

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.

Painting or staining protects fences from environmental damage, enhances durability, and improves curb appeal with a fresh, customized look.

The best way to prepare your vinyl fence for a paint job is to clean it with warm, soapy water and rinse it with a hose or pressure washer on a low setting. Be sure to let it totally dry, then sand the surface before applying an epoxy-based primer. After the primer, you're ready to paint your vinyl fence.

Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can help your wood fence last 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You’ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.

Yes, you can limewash surfaces other than brick. Plaster, stone, stucco, and concrete can all also be limewashed. Any porous surface that will absorb the wash is a good candidate for limewash, although it won’t help much with waterproofing. If you choose to limewash over paint, you’ll need to prep before applying it to avoid a powdery, chalky finish. Shiny surfaces like metal or glass can’t absorb limewash, so it’s not suited for these.
