"The team at ABC Painting was always professional and courteous. They started the job when they originally stated they would and finished it on time. They always left the job site clean. The quality of the work they performed was exceptional and their pricing was extremely reasonable. We are so pleased with ABC Painting that we are having them come back to stain our deck and paint the interior of our house. I highly recommend ABC Painting."

"Great work power washing, staining, and leveling our large deck. Melvin came out to give us a decent estimate. Workers worked for 2 days straight on the project and were pleasant and professional. Customer service kept up to date on the project and was also very pleasant and professional. I now have a beautiful deck. Would hire again without a doubt!"

"Gene Came out of July 15th to give us a quote on initially repairing our rear deck, After a detailed quote we decided to hire Target because of the upfront estimate was very well detailed and we did not want to have additional costs/change orders because we were working on a budget.
The job was completed in a timely manner, the building inspector actually completed the carpenters on their work on the inspection, I was really surprised to see that, (we had previous contractors fail other building inspections due to poor craftsmanship).
They also painted our house and stained our decks/porches. Very nice and clean crew, Fabiano was the crew leader and he was here everyday, I felt good having a point of contact.
I would definitely hire them again."

"I have used 4 painting companies over the years including a national well known chain, NONE were ever as good as Costa Painting!! Details, details, details thatâ s what Costa excels at. Their crew were professional, polite and just HARD WORKERS! Nothing was beyond their capabilities. They brought test paints and stains, they left everything spotless and accommodated last minute changes without reservation. Iâ ll give just one example of them going above and beyond, while power washing the house for paint one brick chimney had heavy deposits of tree sap extensively covering it. They power washed the brick, leaned he sap and never mentioned one word and never charged me one Penney and I have many more examples. The job was completed in short time. Highly recommend."

"Excellent communication throughout, Ozzy and his painter (Gustavo) went above and beyond. You know that feeling where you glance at a contractor or serviceperson and see them paying attention to a detail that most would rush through? That happened regularly on this project (working for a long time on a stubborn stain with a power washer, slowly cutting in to paint perfectly, repairing a birdhouse unprompted!). Price was very reasonable and we couldn't be happier. This kind of service is (sadly) very rare these days. A true gem."

"Evolution Painting completed my deck, carpentry and painting project today. The team produced an extraordinary result. Multiple coats of oil based stain on the Mahogony deck look beautiful. The carpentry work was precise. The painting and color matching couldn't be better. Not only that, but they were the cheapest of all the five pros sent to me. I would absolutely recommend them. They even performed other services (like fixing my gutters and downspout) without cost. The final result is perfection in my eyes. I will upload some photos once its dry."

"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."

"The outside of our house needed a refresh. Reliant painting did a great job protecting the roof, walkway, plants and the new Deck. They did a great job at a fair price. We are very happy with our freshly painted exterior."

"The team did an excellent job. And their price was great too. They covered all the floors and cleaned fully after completing the job and also during the job too. It took them 4 days to complete painting our condo. And I'm quite happy with the outcome and would hire them again whenever I needed."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You may be wondering: can you paint cement? Fortunately, the answer is yes.

To change the color of your cinder blocks, you have two options. You can either paint them or stain them. Either way, you'll be able to choose from a wide range of color options. Some popular colors for cinder block painting include off-white shades and gray tones, which add a modern spin to the traditional gray blocks.

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

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.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.
