"I was so impressed with Wilber and his employees that in addition to painting our deck, I also hired him to pressure wash our deck and fence, replace the lattice on our pergola, as well as perform some other minor wood work. His responsiveness, quality of work and price were all excellent and would be hard to match. I have already referred him to several others in our neighborhood and look forward to hiring him again in the future!"

Customers say: Terrific value

"This was the second time we hired Jeff for exterior painting work. The first time was for our deck and this project was to stain our house, shed, garage and boat house. His work was great and we were very happy with the results. Planning on hiring him again for another project."

"We had this deck repair done in 2019 by a contractor that didn't know what they were doing. Troy came in and expertly repaired our deck and made it safe again. He was fantastic to deal with and did a great job. We will definitely use Troy-Bilt again!"

"Everything turned out amazing! Donnie and his son were so Profesional! They powerwashed my house, painted the entire interior, fixed the drywall where it needed, painted and stained my front porch and stained my back deck. He even went above and beyond by reinstalling my railing that leads upstairs that was loose and installed a missing doorstop in one of the bathrooms! Very reasonable pricing and I would definitely recommend him to anyone! Thank you so much for doing such an awesome job my house looks amazing thanks to you and your company!!!"

"The job went very well. Mr. Kirby gave me an approximate start date which was several months out which did not concern me. Because of his reputation he is very busy and my situation did not require immediate attention. When it became close to the original approximate start date I contacted Mr. Kirby and he told me it would be later than anticipated because of adverse weather conditions which I easily understand. Mr. Kirby notified me when he would be able to start and we consulted about the stain color and were able to match the original color perfectly from an old can of paint that had fortunately been left. He arrived early on the start date and as promised first powerwashed the house. He washed my small deck at no charge. The deck was not included in the original estimate. That was done gratis. Then the caulking commenced and when completed the windows were covered with plastic and painting commenced. We lost almost a week of painting because Mr. Kirby had a family emergency which sometimes is unavoidable and I understand. Life doesn't always go smoothly! After a four day break, Mr. Kirby commenced the painting and finished the work in three days. He also did an interior repair that was needed as a result of a roof leak. The damage is no longer visible. He charged $75.00. Another company gave me an estimate of $500! Several days after the work was completed I realized there was some tape residue on the outside of a second story window and contacted Mr. Kirby. He was here two days later and took care of that and some paint spots on a storm door. Mr. Kirby is a consummate craftsman and as a bonus, is a delightful person. I would not hesitate to recommend his services. I have several interior interior projects for next year and will definitely be using him."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint. 

Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.

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 don’t necessarily have to remove all the old paint before repainting your deck, but it’s best to remove as much as possible to ensure a smooth and long-lasting finish. Prioritize scraping off loose, peeling, or flaking paint, and sand down rough areas to create a smooth surface for the new paint to bond with.

Here's the deal with leaving used rags covered in oil-based stain lying around in a pile: Depending on the conditions, these rags can take just an hour or up to a few days to combust. The source of ignition is caused by trapped heat that can be compounded if the rags are near a heat source.
