"Dan's crew were excellent.  The bathroom needed repair prior to painting; he really worked with me.  Next, the  livingroom ceiling needed to be replaced with sheetrock, trim needed to be removed, some furniture needed to be moved..  Everything was completed in a professional manner; plastic was covering a bay window, the entrance between the livingroom and dinningroom; the molding was carefully removed, the sheetrock was installed, taped and painted.  Dan and his crew continued with two coats of paint in the livingroom, up the stairs and landing.  They were awesome.  The bathroom looks great.  He's currently working on another job for me.  And yes, I did use Dan again--I was pleased with everything.  During the first job, I was very sick but his crew took over andwere very professional with everything.

"Proper Painting has done a lot of work throughout our home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! They painted our 1,000+ sq. ft. in-law suite, including all the doors and windows, plus our entire main home and stairs. My spare room/office used to be a bright blue teal with black trim (my daughter’s old room), and they repainted it in Honey Wheat with white trim. Honestly, my expectations were low, but I was completely blown away by the final results. The team was always on time, courteous, and professional. The process was completely stress free, and the pricing was very fair. I just wish I had taken more photos of the process these are all I have! I highly recommend Proper Painting to anyone looking for quality work and a hassle free experience."

"We didn't even know Leona worked on painting decks as we've utilized her in the past for paint jobs. But after she told me her plan as to how she would redo our deck, I was convinced. Reasonable price, extremely details and standing by her work, Leona worked on our deck for three days! Just an outstanding and professional craftswoman!"

"They were great. Very communicative on arrival time, with quotes, with invoicing, and did all services exactly as they said they would and as good as we hoped. They were conscientious in their work, not finishing until it was exactly right...in fact they came back again to touch up some of the deck knowing they needed a certain spot to dry longer. Overall great guys and I'm looking forward to bringing them in again for the next project."

"As a first-time homeowner, finding the right contractor for a major renovation project was incredibly important to me and my family. We recently purchased a colonial-style home in Abington that needed significant cosmetic updates and repairs before we could move in. Wesley and the team at WNP Painting and Remodeling exceeded every expectation. In just two and a half weeks, they completely transformed our home. Their work included wallpaper removal, painting the entire interior, electrical and plumbing repairs, deck updates, fence installation, door installation, shutters, exterior trim work, luxury vinyl plank flooring, carpet installation, and much more. The quality of the work was outstanding, and the attention to detail was evident throughout the entire project. What impressed me most was Wesley's communication, honesty, and leadership. Since this was my first home renovation, I relied heavily on his expertise. He kept me informed every step of the way, explained issues when"

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

If you don’t treat a cedar fence, it will turn from reddish brown to gray over time. You can keep the cedar from graying and retain its attractive, deep red color by sealing your cedar fence with a stain that keeps the wood’s oils in and serves as a barrier against the sun’s UV rays.

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.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or refinishing the deck altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.

It’s a good idea to sand your porch before painting. This will remove loose or chipped paint and debris, and give you a cleaner surface so that your new paint goes on smoothly. But if the existing surface is in good condition, it’s not necessary to sand your porch before you paint.
