"I selected AAX Painting for my project. I needed my split level house located near Sylva NC exterior painted. This consisted of pressure washing and two coats of paint. I selected AAX Painting because of their reasonable quote and good reviews left by other customers. After selecting and talking with them I found they used Sherwin Williams paint which is quality product. They were professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. They dealt with some unique problems since they were from Asheville Hendersonville area which had massive flooding problems prior to starting the project in Sylva. They have done a great job and I'm very pleased with the end results and would hire them again if I have any future projects. Thanks, Bob Russ"

"R7 Painting did a fantastic job painting my house and staining my deck! They power washed everything first, then prepped in advance of painting. My deck had a few areas that needed to be replaced, so they did that as well. The workmen showed up promptly each morning and cleaned up each evening. All in all they did an A+ job. I have gotten many compliments on my newly painted house and have recommended them on our neighborhood website."

"Marvin the team leader and his crew were the very best. They came early and worked on the house for a full day. Any minor request I'd ask them they were happy to take care of. The price to paint our house was better than we expected. I highly recommend this company to paint anything you want done. A+++ rating!"

"We have had great experiences with Colorful Mountain! We originally hired them to paint the interior of our house which was no easy task. We have a two-story craftsman style home with LOTS or wood beams, etc. They are great communicators, on-time and schedule, and didn’t go over their original quote, did a fantastic job and were much more reasonably priced then other companies (stay away from One Day Painters!). We then hired them to replace some wood posts on our porch. Again, they did an excellent job. We will definitely hire this company again!"

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

If you paint a vinyl fence, it will likely stick to it for only a brief amount of time. This is because vinyl is not a porous material, so it's not an ideal surface for holding paint. Initially, paint will stick to your fence, but it will eventually peel off. Applying primer before painting your vinyl fence will help paint last longer. Certain primers are well-suited to vinyl, which means you can paint vinyl siding with the proper preparation.

Acrylic latex paint is the best option to use on your outdoor wrought iron fence, because it holds up well against the elements. Use a high-quality, exterior-grade paint specifically designed for use on metal. You can choose between spray paint or regular liquid paint. As for primer, it's best to use an oil-based and rust inhibiting option before painting your wrought iron fence.

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

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.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.
