"We were in the process of moving and needed to have our walls repainted so they looked fresh, new, and clean for selling. They did a great job, made sure to not spill any paint on floor or carpet, were able to get job in one day! They were also very affordable so we were able to do this while also making other changes to sell without breaking our budget!"

"We scheduled Jim to give us an estimate for replacing our 22-year-old roof - initially this was a planned repair but turned into an insurance claim when he found evidence of hail damage. He met the adjuster and made sure to point out the damage he'd seen,and the claim was approved. Jim provided his proposal quickly and stayed in touch frequently throughout the planning stages - eg., confirming our shingle choices, discussing scheduling. On the day work was to start, the crew showed up promptly and worked throughout the day to get as much done as possible before dark. Day 2 was unfortunately several days later due to weather, but the work was completed without problems. The new roof looks great, and more importantly, is holding up well through the first few winter storms. They also replaced several gutters, downspouts, and window screens that were damaged by the hailstorm. They will be back once the weather warms up to do strip and reprint the deck (also damaged by hail). Their price was about higher than the other estimate we got, but Jim went the extra mile to answer our questions, meet the insurance adjuster, etc., and we were very comfortable with him. It would have been helpful to know ahead of time that they would need access inside the home to confirm that the skylights (two in one room and one in another) were installed properly - it was just luck that I was able to come home to let them in. Other than that little communication glitch, I was very happy with the work.

"I recently contacted Tasi for an estimate for interior painting and a pretreatment for tobacco stained walls. He came out a week later, and gave an excellent estimate with a rough draft almost immediately, because he had a pad. He was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the project. He knew about the pre treatment which some contractors did not. He was very thorough with very competitive pricing. He was always in contact and just very professional. I was very impressed. I would definitely recommend his business for estimates before hiring anyone else."

"3-4 men for one day to patch and paint master bedroom with trim. The job was completed in about 6-7 hours, and the paint looks great. They were knowledgeable, punctual, efficient, professional, and friendly. They cleaned up after themselves (which was not much of a mess anyway)! Highly recommend.

"This is not the first nor will it be the last time we call Bob DiMenna.     He is responsive; meticulous, customer focused at all times -always assuring that the date; time is convenient to begin job.    Our siding especially on second level needed attention.   Bob really did a great job of powerwashing both levels.    Looks like new......will be an annual event.............
Will be calling him for staining deck in the fall."

"Junior and his crew do an impeccable job with extreme professionalism. They protect your home from all debris and when they are finished, clean up and put your place back together as if no one has ever been there. I was 100% satisfied with the quality of Garcia Painting's work and loved the friendly customer service. Junior did the work for a fair and reasonable price and was extremely accommodating to our time constraints and needs. I cannot recommend Garcia Painting enough for anyone looking to have painting or stain work done."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

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.

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.

Ideally, it's best to stain your dock once per year. Applying stain doesn't just keep it looking nice and new; it also helps extend the dock’s lifespan. Since you want to ensure water levels are at their lowest, it's best to have this project done by a professional dock repair service in the cooler autumn or early winter months. 

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.
