"It went very well. Josh gave me a respectable quote and started working on my two outdoor projects two days later. He prepped the areas first by laying down paint cloths and then scraped several hours before the actual paint was applied. It looks great and I appreciate his cooperation to get it done in a timely manner."

"I worked with Mike, Paxton, and Ryan as they replaced flooring in my basement Livingroom, bedroom, bathroom, 2 small hallways, and stairs with landing. They were amazing to work with - they provided ongoing updates, were sensitive to our schizoid cats, and answered questions professionally. They explained what was needed, listened to any concerns I would have, and helped us to consider next steps in addressing possible mold issues in our basement. I cannot recommend them enough or everyone at Fix it all. It was great seeing Curtis again as I considered baseboards with great recommendations. They are 80% done with the project at this time and I couldn't be more excited to see this dream come true! Thank you to Fix it all and the best group of workers I have been blessed with. Warmly, Andi"

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.
The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage.
Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.
There are several ways to make a wooden fence more visually appealing and keep it that way for years to come.
Treat the fence with a wood sealant to protect it against the elements. It’s recommended to reseal a fence every two to three years, but if you live in a harsh climate, you may want to do it more frequently than that.
Restore the fence if it’s old, corroding, or fading. That includes cleaning it and making small repairs where needed.
Paint the fence in a color that you like, whether that’s a simple white or more vibrant option. Fences usually need to be repainted every one to three years.
Decorate the fence with planters, string lights, birdhouses, mirrors, shutters, and more.
Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.
