"We had excellent service. When we were struggling with paint choices they came and met us at Sherwin to go through colors and even stopped over and painted samples on our walls. They came in twice a day to oversee their crew. The work was was outstanding and done in 3 days compared to other companies that were saying the project would take a week to 2 weeks to complete. I would absolutely recommend their services to anyone looking for outstanding service, work, and at a price that won't break the bank."

"Tim was very personable and explained everything that would need to be done to clean and repaint/Stain our deck. Did it in the time frame promised. Tim and Bailey worked tirelessly until the project was complete. Will not hesitate to contact them to do any other similar projects that would be required!"

"Great job on re-staining and sealing the exterior of our house which has a log cabin look. We had some challenges in regards to the weather not always cooperating, but he kept us well informed. We've asked him to give us some quotes on interior work next."

"Bryan was great to work with. He was prompt, polite & personable. But he also did an excellent job. We bought a new home and part of the living room ceiling had an area where a repair had been made but never painted. Bryan matched the ceiling paint and covered the repaired area, saving us hundreds of dollars by not having to paint the entire ceiling. We will definitely use True Finish Painting for future projects. We highly recommend them."

"CertaPro did a very nice job. It looked great. I had many neighbors compliment me about the quality and color selection. Ann Marie was the sales associate I worked with. She was very professional and took the time to answer any questions, even if it was on a weekend. The project was managed very well. All done within the timeframe agreed upon. I would have given them a 5, but they did not remove the light and plug fixtures before painting. It was my understanding that they would. They were very easy to get to and would have taken very little time. I removed anything else that was attached that was not to be painted. I would highly recommend them to anyone and would use them again for any future projects"

"I hired color world to paint and repair my back deck. They did a nice job on the painting and when I showed them a few things that need to to be repaired they came back the very next day and fixed it. The staff was very friendly and receptive and I feel like I got a fair price comparing them to two other painters."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat. 

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.

You’ll want to avoid excessively hot or humid conditions, so it’s best to apply your stain in late spring to early fall. It's also important to watch the weather forecast and aim for days when there isn’t rain expected for at least three days. For new decks, allow the wood to season beforehand for at least four to eight weeks.
