"Sean and his workers did an amazing job painting the interior of our house. He used premium quality paints, stuck to the initial estimate price, and was able to complete the entire job within the requested timeframe (with his crew often working long hours and weekends). This allowed us to move into our home on our scheduled move-in date. Sean and his crew were also extremely careful with our newly refinished hardwood floors, leaving them spotless afterward. We were so impressed with Sean's work and his honesty that we immediately rehired him to repair our roof even though we had gotten estimates from other contractors, some of whom may have been trying to rip us off (apparently not uncommon). After starting the roof work, once Sean realized that the repair was not going to cost as much as he initially estimated, he let us know and adjusted the final cost down accordingly. While repairing the roof, he also noted that our woodstove chimney was filled with creosote (highly flammable), which apparently hadn't been cleaned by the previous homeowners in years; Sean immediately took care of it that very day. We still have some minor repairs left in the house and will be hiring Sean to do them. Sean is now our go-to guy for any issue with our home that is beyond our level of expertise. He is really easy to get a hold of, responds immediately, and goes above and beyond."

"Eagle Construction was great. They renovated and restored my screened in porch that quite honestly had been installed by another contractor and was a nightmare. Now we have a screened imports that we are happy to share with friends and family. Thanks to Rick’s work. Customer service was very good!"

"David figured out a challenging project on a cabinet so old that its hinges are no longer available. He was courteous, professional and punctual. I am grateful that his creative thinking and stick-to-itiveness resulted in a cabinet door that is working again! Thank you, David!!!"

"Dave showed up when he said, completed all of the work as promised and even better than promised. The crew was professional, and always thorough. I hired him again after the first job for another roof repair, and my son will be hiring him after seeing the work he did. This is the company to go to."

Painting questions, answered by experts

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

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. 

For the best results, you should apply two coats of paint to your wrought iron fence. Let your first coat dry for about an hour then promptly apply your second coat.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.
