Your first visit is very expensive for complete service plus extras they want to charge you for, and after the service, you will need a house cleaning service to clean the mess up. $650 for 2 hours labor a drill with a brush attachment to clean ducts in a 960 square ft Mobil home a real rip off

Called Pocono Paint Chip for an estimate for painting part of my home that I was unable due to very high ceilings and walls. Chip arrived as planned to provide a free estimate. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and his price seemed fair for the job to be done--so we hired him. He was always easy...

The guys arrived on time and got right to work. They hustled and worked practically non stop. They took the entire tree down and chipped all of the brush. We would definitely use Filos tree service in the future.

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Preparation includes cleaning the fence, sanding any rough areas, applying a primer if necessary, and ensuring dry weather for application.

If you’re deciding between limewash versus whitewash, know that both have a chalky matte appearance. Limewash is made from lime, water, and sometimes pigment, while whitewash consists of lime, water, white chalk, and binders (though you can get a similar look with watered-down white paint). Whitewash has fewer options for color customization, and it sits on surfaces instead of being absorbed into them, which can trap moisture. Whitewashing costs less—about $1.40 to $4.20 per square foot.

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.
