"David and his crew are very professional. David came back to paint the bedroom because I didn't have the room ready the first time. He uses Sherwin Williams paint which comes in great colors and covers really well. The crew was very professional and friendly. I would highly recommend."

"Barney and his sons painted the walls and ceilings of my home and did an extensive amount of staining of the woodwork as well. The job was quite a challenge as the house is quite old but Barney's crew was unfazed. The house has undergone a complete transformation from a "renters special" to a gorgeous Craftsman bungalow. It was a pleasure working with Barney and he was very attentive and responsive to communications."

"Honestly, I was skeptical about painting our oak cabinets. I was terrified they would look like a cheap DIY paint job with brush marks, or that my house would be covered in dust. ​Home Hue Heroes completely proved me wrong. ​Darlin and Jeremy didn't just 'paint' the kitchen; they set up a full containment system (like a bubble!) so not a speck of dust got into the rest of the house. They were meticulous—labeling every door, scrubbing everything down, and sanding it to perfection. ​The finish? It is literally flawless. It feels like smooth glass and looks like it came straight from the factory. You cannot see a single wood grain or brush stroke. They used a high-end Sherwin-Williams coating that wipes down easily. ​If you are on the fence, just do it. They showed up on time every day, finished exactly when they said they would (5 days!), and gave us a 2-year guarantee. Highly recommend!"

Painting 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.

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.

Maintaining a composite fence is pretty straightforward, as it doesn’t require staining or repainting. To keep it clean, scrub the fencing with a composite deck cleaner or hot, soapy water. Use a soft-bristle brush for the best results, and avoid using pressure washers or sanders. Plan to clean your fence at least twice a year. Scrubbing the fencing in the fall and spring can help prevent mold and mildew growth.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.
