"Derrick arrived on time to assess the deck. He was very professional, personable, and accommodating. Our deck was in tough shape but he worked with us to stay within our budget and still not cut any corners. We were more than pleased with his work and being very punctual ."

"Ryan got to the house right on time the first day and within 15 or 20 minutes after looking at the job (which was exterior painting which included the vinyl sided house, shutters, trim, bulk head door and a railing), he had a detailed, printed estimate presented to me. He was the only one of the 5 companies who did that. I was already impressed. The estimate was also the best of the 5 that I received. Shannon kept me informed during the process and even gave me help in picking out colors. Lewis was great. If I had any concerns, he always responded with "No Worries". And he followed through on his promises. I always had confidence in him. His crew were also all very nice. When the job was finished, Lewis and I did a walk through and I just pointed out a few minor details. I was already very happy with the job. After that, we did another walk through because he wanted to make sure everything was as I wanted. Shannon came by an hour or so later and we did another. I told her I was very happy. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone based on our experience. In fact, I told Shannon that I was going to paint my deck in the Spring, but if I changed my mind and didn't feel like doing it myself, I'd be giving them a call. All very nice people."

"Great! The crew came early in the morning and left early in the evening, working in mid-40's degree temperatures. Although they have another days work to do, the porch already looks phenomenal and the front door frame is so much better than it was."

"The painters were not only very personable and professional but also very efficient and did an excellent job stripping and painting the outside of my home. All the work was completed in a timely fashion. I originally had old white vinyl siding and when finished, my house looked brand new. I couldn’t be happier with the updated appearance."

"We were very pleased with Lucas Medeiros for the painting of our house and deck. All of the workers were on time each day, and were efficient in getting the job done in a timely manner. They left the area clean and did not leave until they checked everything. We would definitely recommend this company and would certainly look to them for future work."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

There are deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.
