"A really terrific company. Zach, one of the owners, was attentive to all my requests, and a pleasure to deal with. Kyle, the painter who did the work, was meticulous with every step of the job, obviously an experienced professional. I now know whom to call for all my future painting needs."

"I can not recommend Pro Finish highly enough! First, they are responsive. Even though we were looking for a project at a really busy time of year for them, Jared was always responsive and communicative setting good expectations for when he would come for an estimate and when they would be working. Secondly, advice. They are professionals and they have same great guidance and opinions of you have any questions or want any suggestions. Thirdly - the team of 6-8 painters at the house were both professional and fun to have around working. They worked quickly and carefully and did a tremendous job. Overall, I will absolutely hire ProFinish again to work on additional projects at our home!"

"Had our whole house interior - 1,750 sq ft. - walls, trim, doors, baseboards were painted as well as staining our backyard porch. Tom Birman and his crew, Lorraine, Tom, Terry and Nick did a great job! They were friendly and professional. They were on time everyday and worked so well together! When they first came they all went in different directions and I thought uh oh, but I was surprised because they had a system of working together that was so smooth I was amazed! Job completed in 4 days. We are elderly and they were so very helpful taking things down for us that were up high on the walls, because we can’t climb ladders anymore. Cleaned up nicely too. Did a final walkthrough today. We are very happy with the quality of their work! Would definitely recommend and I would hire them again."

"We needed our house repainted. I hired this company based on the reviews I had read. And now I can add my voice to the mix; they showed up when they said they would, did a great job and the price was reasonable. What more can one ask?"

"Dave and his team are very professional and courteous. Hired them for exterior house & deck painting, they arrived when they said they would be there on Monday morning and completed the job by Tuesday afternoon. Dave worked closely with me on color selection and was very patient when I was changing my mind about trim work. You can't beat the price for the quality work they do. I would hire them again and highly recommend this company."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Deck staining or painting safeguards wood against the elements through its protective layer, enhancing decay resistance, prolonging structural integrity, and improving visual appeal.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

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.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.

Staining pressure-treated wood is a recommended practice. While inherently resilient, it's not impervious to moisture and UV exposure. Staining treated wood is feasible and recommended for enhanced protection and longevity. Applying stain and sealant safeguards against degradation, prolonging its life span. These measures shield the wood from environmental threats while augmenting its aesthetic appeal, ensuring your investment endures the test of time.
