"Adrian and his crew did a fantastic job with our cabinets. He was very professional and really took time to make sure everything was properly sealed from overspray and really clean. We also had him come back to do our wooden island and the picture talks for its self. I really recommend his services."

"We found this crew of 3 brothers to be a real pleasure to work with. We got a quote from them and 4 others companies. From that 1st meeting, we just felt like they were the kind of people we wanted for our project. They spent time asking questions and giving us information about what we could or could not expect our results to be. Details were discussed that no one else had took the time to do. Our building is older and needed some serious prep work before the painting and these guys really took care of that. They worked really hard and spent a lot of time to make sure it would look good before putting the paint on. They made it look better than we imagined it possibly could. All the details and little things I asked for were done without any shortcuts or complaints. They were professional, friendly and easy to work with. We would definitely recommend them to anyone and will plan to call them again for any future work.

We removed all old wood siding, then we sheathed with plywood and put on new wood siding, primed and painted two sides of the house then we scraped, sanded ,primed , caulked and painted the rest of the house. We also put new tongue & groove pine boards on ceiling under the porch then stained it.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

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.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

Yes, it is important to wash your deck before painting to ensure the paint applies well and adheres properly. While you don't have to use a pressure washer, it is one of the most efficient cleaning methods. Pressure washing can quickly remove dirt, wood fibers, and flaked paint, getting deeper into the wood than manual scrubbing. You can also clean the deck with a stiff broom and a cleaning solution. Regardless of the method, a clean surface is essential for good paint adhesion. Make sure the deck is completely dry before applying any paint.
