"i was thoroughly satisfied with the recent exterior painting done on my house by Alden Painting. John Alden and his son John Jr are consummate professionals. They appeared on time, worked diligently while they were on the job and the result of their labors is clearly evident i have already had numerous comments from my neighbors on their work. All surfaces that needed to be painted were prepped very carefully and power washed sanded and patched where necessary. Paint application which involved a 3 color pallette was thorogh and accurately done and any necessary cleanup was done properly and completely. They were personable and open to suggestions and a joy to work with. I clearly recommend them to anybody looking for their services and they will be my first choice for any other painting projects i have coming up."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Choosing the right product involves understanding deck material, desired finish, and local weather conditions. Opt for high-quality, weatherproof formulations ensuring long-term durability and appearance retention.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

Many decking oils can help slow down algae growth, but they don't completely stop it. These oils work by sealing the wood, which reduces moisture and, therefore, algae growth. Some decking oils also help protect against UV damage, but they need to be reapplied according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the decking stays protected.

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. 

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.
