"Nashville Painting Company was recommended to us by Romabio to paint ("stain" I guess?) our brick house white. They came out quick for the quote, and despite us deciding to move forward with the job nearly 6 months later they still honored the quote and got us on the schedule quickly. It was originally thought our red brick would only require 2 coats of white tinted Romabio (Sherwin Williams "Greek Villa") but after the 2nd coat it was clear that the coverage wasn't enough and they very quickly worked to rectify with another coat. They also painting our foundation and our porch without issue. We had a color match issue during the porch painting (very likely our fault based on paint samples the previous owner left in the house), but NPC again fixed the problem very quickly and we were left with a perfect porch. The communication is exceptional from beginning to end. Highly recommend to anyone."

"I received a prompt response to my inquiry to pressure wash my deck. The quote for the cost was provided the same day and was very reasonable. The deck was cleaned the next day and by the end of the week, it was beautifully painted. My deck looks like it is brand new!! Such a professional and respectful company. I highly recommend them and certainly will use them again in the future."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

You’ll want to avoid excessively hot or humid conditions, so it’s best to apply your stain in late spring to early fall. It's also important to watch the weather forecast and aim for days when there isn’t rain expected for at least three days. For new decks, allow the wood to season beforehand for at least four to eight weeks.

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 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.
