"If you are looking for quality service with great attention to detail for a more than fair price, look no further. Steve was amazing. The quality of his work speaks volumes about his experience, and his pricing about his character. My wife and I hired Steve to do an entire interior job, which, by the end, we were blown away. Our home wasnt on the market for a week before it was rented, thanks to Steve! Will always use this business for future painting needs."

"Drew of Driftwood Painting did an absolutely fantastic job painting the interior of my townhouse. He moved and put back all furniture so we didn’t have to, and my house was very clean when he was done. There was nothing for us to do but put things back on the walls and enjoy our beautifully freshly painted walls. He also pressure washed the outside and did a fantastic job. Our home feels and looks brand new again."

The guys were very professional and courteous, even suggesting ways to save us money. We were so pleased, that we contacted them again for additional work. Our second work request has been completed as well. The associate also provided very professional and courteous work. Again, making suggestions about the work that needed to be done to better our request and save money. I highly recommend this company and will continue to use them in the future."

"Rosa and her crew put a preservative on our fence. They did an absolutely stellar job. We?ve even had people come over to look at it and they?re so impressed at the work that was done. She does not skimp on materials and she uses the best because she?s working to preserve her excellent reputation. This is a quality organization run by wonderful individuals."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces if you apply them correctly. Use on non-suitable surfaces can cause issues. For instance, applying limewash or whitewash to surfaces with existing sealants or incompatible materials may lead to poor adhesion or flaking. Also, harsh cleaning agents on limewashed or whitewashed surfaces can damage the finish. Proper preparation, application, and maintenance ensure that limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces.

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.

If your biggest concern is making sure your deck doesn’t show dirt, opt for a darker neutral color that blends in well with your surrounding landscape. A rich brown or dark grey are both good options that work with a variety of house colors. A high-quality acrylic paint is easy to clean and maintain, so it might be worth spending the money on.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.
