"David is great. I'd call him again and recommend him to everyone. The project started and ended on time, even though the humidity was against us. He was on time every day and a pleasure to have in the house. Unfortunately, I talked to him a couple of times (great conversationalist) and even though I slowed him down; he plugged on in a great mode. They say you get what you pay for; I got way more than what I paid for. He wasn't the cheapest, he wasn't the most expensive and gave a veterans discounts. But the job turned out way better, then expected and turned what we had done into part of the show case of our house. He fixed holes, dents and cracks; sealed, put on 2 coats, and just made the paint sparkle (flat finish lol) If you need paint, David is the man to call."

"Ryan’s painting work was executed with an exceptional level of skill and attention to detail. From the outset, the floors were protected, and all the walls were patched. The painters were methodical in their preparation, thoroughly protecting our household items. We were very happy with the finished product and will definitely hire him again for all our painting needs."

"The power washing was very effective in removing the mildew and moss from the house wall. I noticed a minor issue with the grass immediately under the wall. Some spots of the grass started to wilt (probably from the washing fluid), but a couple of weeks later the grass started to bounce back. I guess it's an expected side-effect. Despite this I am very happy with the result, and will reach out to Bob again in the future for the same service."

"LHI painted out last two houses inside and out, his work was solid, they showed up on time every day and even completed the job in less time than anticipated. Whenever we were not happy with something Jay did his best to make sure we were happy and made it perfect. I will stick with LHI for all my projects."

"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 questions, answered by experts

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

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.
