"Cruz Home Painting LLC did an excellent job painting the exterior of our home. Jesús and his team’s attention to detail on the project resulted in a high quality paint job. Jesús communicated with us on all stages of the job and ensured that all parties were on the same page. The quality of work was definitely worth the price."

"Mr. Silva was very professional. He kept in contact with me prior to coming out to do the job. He arrived at the time he ssid he would. They did an amazing job on the ceiling. It was an arched wood ceiling with wooden beams. The end results were exceptional. They cleaned up everything when they were done. I am so glad we found Silva painting. I highly recommend them for all your paintings needs."

"Narciso and his team were awesome from start to finish. I reached out to a handful of painters in the area for quotes, and they had the best rate and were the most professional. I was constantly tweaking what we needed prior to the start date, and Narciso was always very responsive and accommodating via email. The painting itself was great, and they came back a week later to do some extra work at my request. We'll have painting needs in the near future and we will use Paz Painting again. Thanks Narciso!"

"I have never met more hard working conscientious professional , honest, friendly folks in my 50 years of homeownership I have hired many contractors for decks and floors and patios and landscaping in 3 states over 5 decades, These people were special and did more than I expected. Not only was the patio they installed beautiful and of superior quality and workmanship, they left the site cleaned up and neat and in better condition than when they arrived,, I am recommending them to all my friends and neighbors. And to top it off their price quote was less than two comparable reputable companies, Thanks Mauricioas. ."

"Kelvin and his team did an excellent job. They were on time, efficient, diligent, clean and ended the job by painting and gutter cleaning all in one day. Job included Front door Fluted Fascia repair and install, new crawl space door and siding repair and replacement with painting, gutter cleaning. The company name doesnâ t do them justice - they can do more than paint!"

"I regret trusting the positive reviews. I suppose it depends on what subcontractor is sent. Only 1 junior resource showed up on day 1 and started painting. Brush strokes locked into paint everywhere. Cut in wall paint over ran line at ceiling into ceiling. Paint dripped into light switches. Day 1 is supposed to be all prep, nail pops not addressed before painting started! Day 2 senior resource joined him. Missed many nail pops and rushing to address them after painting had already started meant uneven lumps and dimples over shoddy nail pop repair, and repainting over that meant difference in sheen. When replacing deck screens used poor technique with power drill/screwdriver and stripped all the screws. Paint hand and fingerprints over the screens. They worked really hard but in effect were 1.5 resources for a large job and were rushing and making mistakes. Very polite but end product subpar."

"They did a beautiful job and I would highly recommend them. After they finished the decks they cleaned up everything before leaving and pressure washed the decks and areas. Great group to get the job done."

"Totally professional! They offered great color and design advice and the work was top-notch in every way. We are thrilled with how our home and deck looks now. They also painted a couple of interior ceilings—also excellent. Plus, they got it all done in a short amount of time. And prices were better than other estimates. We will hire them again for sure."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.

You’ll need to restrain your deck when you notice fading, cracking, peeling, or mold and mildew over a moderate to large area, or when it’s become especially difficult to clean. As for how often to stain a deck, plan to do it every two to three years or whenever you start to notice extended damage.

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.

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.
