"We recently hired S&J Painting to paint most of the interior of our home, including our kitchen cabinets, and were very pleased with the experience. Jerry, the owner, responded quickly to our request for an estimate. His pricing was competitive, and we received a detailed written proposal within a couple of days. Marvin painted our kitchen cabinets & railings; Ivan and Brandon painted the rest of the rooms. All were punctual, professional, friendly, and respectful of our home. The team accommodated a few last-minute changes, corrected two areas where there was confusion about paint colors, and returned after the project was completed to handle touch-ups. We also used Brian, their handyman, to replace two bathroom sinks. When one of the sinks we purchased turned out to be damaged, he went out of his way to visit multiple stores to find a replacement. Overall, S&J Painting was responsive, easy to work with, and committed to customer satisfaction. We would gladly recommend them."

"Jose and his team were very professional and timely from the initial estimate all the way through completion of their work at our home. Their work was fantastic and they quickly adapted to extra projects we asked them to add on. We hired them initially for painting only but we were so happy with our experience we ended up using them for almost everything we needed to be done at our house prior to putting it on the market. Jose was also constantly in touch and communicative during the project. He took our calls at any time of day. We wish we would have found Jose sooner and will be using his company again! I read reviews heavily prior to hiring contractors and can say confidently that if you are looking for a reliable and customer service oriented company with reasonable prices, you don't need to look any further."

"The work of AW Painting was superb in repainting our kitchen, our large family room (with a cathedral ceiling), and an entry way. We received a detailed written estimate within two days of a visit from Carlos, the owner, which AW Painting honored. They started when promised and came each day when promised and cleaned up before they left for the day. They did impeccable work, including in areas one would not normally see, and each member of the team clearly took great pride in his craft. They corrected, without quibble, the usual small nits that arise in every home project. When we had some additional add-on repair projects other than painting. AW Painting provided a fair price and handled them wonderfully. We felt completely comfortable allowing them to work while we were away, which probably was best for everyone involved! When the project was finished, they carted away everything, rather than leaving us to deal with empty cans and other trash. We absolutely will hire AW Painting for any future projects."

"This company is awesome! They painted my house inside and out flawlessly! They also installed gorgeous vinyl plank flooring and carpet. I can’t say enough about the quality of the work! Workers were great and very efficient. The only glitz was in communication and that was partially because I’m difficult to reach. Would definitely give them a high recommendation!"

"Carlos did a great job for me, including repairing drywall in a ceiling and repainting it. Also painting some walls that had been damaged and doing masterful touch-up on some dings that had happened over time on other walls. Also painted two powder rooms, one of which had to be skim coated because the previous paint was textured. Very happy with the job."

"Miguel’s Team painting services was truly exceptional. We initially hired Miguel to paint our kitchen cabinets from their original wood stain to a dark forest green. Our cabinet colors came out great, and the service was reasonably priced.  Miguel’s Team did such an excellent job that we also hired them to repaint our entire house."

Painting questions, answered by experts

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again. 

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.

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 finish for wrought iron railings is either a semi-gloss or a gloss sheen, as each offers good durability against rain, wind, heat, cold, and snow. 

There are several ways to make a wooden fence more visually appealing and keep it that way for years to come.

  • Treat the fence with a wood sealant to protect it against the elements. It’s recommended to reseal a fence every two to three years, but if you live in a harsh climate, you may want to do it more frequently than that.

  • Restore the fence if it’s old, corroding, or fading. That includes cleaning it and making small repairs where needed.

  • Paint the fence in a color that you like, whether that’s a simple white or more vibrant option. Fences usually need to be repainted every one to three years.

  • Decorate the fence with planters, string lights, birdhouses, mirrors, shutters, and more.
