"Dave and his crew were fantastic! I ordered the wrong color by mistake! Dave and I went to the Sherwin Williams paint store. They were unable to tweak my bad paint to match the bracket from the door so I ended up buying a new gallon that matched it perfectly! With Dave's contractor discount I did save money on the new paint. He was so helpful and cooperative! They did a great job on the door and trim. Looks brand new! I would highly recommend Dave for any painting project!"

"Fresh Start painting did two of my friends homes both interior and exterior. I was so impressed I had them come and paint multiple interior rooms in my home and then they painted the exterior of my home inclusive of my front porch and my screened in back porch. They are efficient, accommodating, detail oriented and so neat in cleaning up other than beautiful painting as a result you would never know they were here. Immaculate ~ and I have already rehired them for more work. Reasonable prices and worth every dime. Accommodating with my schedule ~ and I could just leave while they did their work. Lovely to be in a position of trust and reliability. PS they were fabulous working around my labrador and she moved from room to room to say hello and then she would tuck into a bed for a nap."

"I recently hired Luis to build a new wooden deck for my backyard, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very first consultation, Luis was incredibly easy going and professional, making the whole process feel stress free. He took the time to listen to my ideas and vision for the space, and then broke everything down into simple, understandable steps explaining the materials we’d use, the timeline, and even potential challenges like weather delays in our crazy KC winters. His clear communication helped me feel confident and involved every step of the way. The quality of his work is top notch, the deck is sturdy and beautifully crafted with pressure treated lumber, and seamlessly integrates with my home’s exterior. He paid attention to all the little details. Luis was punctual, respectful of my property, and cleaned up thoroughly after each day’s work. Easily my top choice for future projects"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don’t want paint that’ll show every mark like matte, but you don’t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.
