"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!"

"Bright Painting may have converted me to the benefits of hiring painters! They did my living/dining are, entry and ceilings including my kitchen ceiling. The ceilings had some peeling paint (due to calcimite paint underneath) and water stains. Bright Painting did an excellent job. The work looks so much better than what I can do! Plus, it was done start to finish in 2 days. I am very happy!"

"We were exceedingly pleased with Durable Remodeling from the day we signed the contract with Dean and throughout the entire project. Dean and his team were consistently accessible, punctual, and professional. The work performed by Rick and Ben was of the highest quality, and the deck construction and cedar shingle replacement was completed in a very reasonable time frame, four weeks. We are thoroughly enjoying relaxing on our new deck and would highly recommend Durable Remodeling."

"After first making contact with Ronney, he was on top of things right away. He showed up the same day and we went over work to be completed. Ronney stayed in touch and showed up when he said they would. The cleaning service was remarkable and apartment looks great from top to bottom. I would highly recommend"

"I called Tony to power clean re-stain my deck plus replace 1 warped slat when I saw his fantastic reviews and ratings. Within 24 hours he responded. He was most courteous, professional and willing. He even gave me an adjusted estimate when I erred in my communication with him. Unfortunately, with addressing the needs of my 94-year-old mom in a hospital this whole project came to a halt due to financing and time. Tony was most agreeable and understanding. I will definitely hire him to do the job in the spring. I would totally trust him."

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.

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint. 

Yes, beginners can use a paint sprayer, but there is a learning curve. It's important to go slowly, read the instructions thoroughly, and spend some time learning the technique. Watching tutorial videos for your specific paint sprayer model can be very helpful. Before starting your main project, practice on a scrap surface to get used to the sprayer and avoid common issues like overspraying, which can cause drips, bubbles, and other imperfections. For safety, always wear a mask and gloves, and be careful not to touch the sprayer's tip when it's in use, particularly with high-powered airless sprayers.

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for.
