"I am completely satisfied with the services provided. I had the ceilings, walls, and trim painted in most of my house (about 1600 square feet), and had drywall installed over paneling in one room. Daniel advised me of better alternatives to what I was planning, and I’m glad I took his advice (i.e., he advised to drywall over the paneling rather than filling the grooves and painting over it; and to paint trim with oil based paint for better adhesion because it was originally painted with oil based paint--which I did not notice until he pointed it out to me). He worked with a crew of two other men; they were fast (it took 4 days), neat (no drips, splashes, or marks with the paint; and cleaned up after themselves), and did a high quality job (good prep work and paint coverage). Daniel was responsive and good to work with. And, last but not least, the price was very fair. If you are considering what to do with an old paneled room, I recommend you consider installing drywall over the paneling. Daniel installed a 1/4” thick drywall over the paneling, which butts up to the door and window trim and crown molding. They used caulk to seal between the drywall and trim, which was painted to match the trim. I was concerned it would look strange, but it’s fine; I don’t think you would notice the “thin” trim unless you knew about it. We removed the baseboard, so drywall was installed to the floor and are installing new baseboard."

"Jason and Kenny were awesome. They were very meticulous with excellent attention to detail. They matched paint and stain. They also repaired areas of wall where the previous owner had left significant damage. Their skim coating made the walls look new again. Customer service, communication and reliability were superb. I would definitely recommend for painting and finishing."

"Jordan was the only painter which bid our job that actually listened to us. No other painter wanted to use the higher quality paint we wanted. Jordan did not flinch and let us know on the spot that the higher quality paint would only be a couple hundred dollars more for 5 rooms and our hallways. Even with the higher quality paint. Jordan’s price was more than competitive. When he came to do the job, he was always on time, cleaned up at the end of the day and the quality of work was fantastic! The ceilings, walls and woodwork look better than new. When he finished it looked like we bought a new house. Our neighbors were so impressed they had Jordan bid and awarded him their job in 24 hours. Jordan’s painting is high quality and excellent value. I will hire him again and again."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

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.

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. 

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

Routine staining or sealing and periodic inspections to extend life.
