"I bought a Big Deal for a roof maintenance package from William Mackay Roofing.  Joe Mackay arrived on time for our appointment.  He was very knowledgeable and professional.  He inspected the roof, patched areas that needed attention, and provided pictures of the problem areas on the roof.  I have a tin roof, and we discussed possible replacement materials.  Joe is an excellent ambassador for William Mackay Roofing.  I would not hesitate to use them again.

"I thought I could use this big deal to have my decks power washed, but the company refused. My bad, I should have checked first before placing the order. They were quick to respond to my order and seemed very nice."

"I hired this company based on reviews from Angie's list.  My experience was a bit different than the A + rating they had.  The answered my call for a quote and arrived on time.  The communicated in Spanish about everything.  We all walked the house together and I pointed out everything that needed painting.  We had a discussion about the master bath, the last words I heard George senior tell me was "we can fix this".  They quoted me a price of $3400.00 and said if I got everything done at once, he would take $200.00 off.  I didn't get other quotes because I just moved in and time was a factor, so I can't really comment on price.  During the week, they dropped of a large paint sample thing to make may choices from.  They arrived early to start the two-day job, a Friday and a Saturday.  They finished the job on Saturday, as promised.  My master bath was not painted, the wood on the steps was not painted, they removed all the drapery hardware and it was tossed out apparently, they took a blind down in the master bedroom and I had to remind many times for them to fix it, they did with crazy glue.  The walls and ceiling are beautiful but the trim is horrible.  I am still painting over spots that were missed or the paint was wiped off when they cleaned the floors.  There was a quarter sized drop of paint on my maple dining room table.  There was a large spot of white trim paint on the colored wall in the hall, but worst of all I continue to clean small spots and areas where there is white paint on the oak floors. They did do me one favor and lift a TV back up above the fireplace that had been taken down for painting. They did leave all the extra paint in the basement, one bucket not closed and has a paint roller floating in it.  The worst thing was them teasing my dogs and getting them agitated and pushing each other towards them and laughing.  Overall, I don't think I had an "A" experience.  Unfortunately I would not recommend them or use them again.

"The crew arrived when expected and promptly started working. The supervisor on-site was responsive and kept things moving along and made sure clean up each day was thorough. Prep work included power washing, carpentry, sanding, and caulking. They stained the log portion of our house, and painted all of the siding, trim, metal roof and wrought iron railing. Our house now looks wonderful!

"My husband and I moved to a new home 1 1/2 years ago.  Our new house had a great kitchen space and cabinetry that was of good quality but had become a bit shabby.  The finish on the cabinets had been marred by spills, stains and steam and was in need of a serious facelift.  In addition, the previous owners had put it a lovely tile floor, but did not continue the tile under the cabinets.  In doing this, they had blocked the dishwasher in so that it could only have been removed by taking off the countertops and lifting it or by removing tiles from the floor.  When Gerardo came to give me an estimate for the refinishing work, it was he who discovered this problem.  Thank heaven he did, because we intended to put down granite countertops after the cabinets were done and when the dishwasher finally died, our granite or our floor would have been destroyed when we tried to remove the dishwasher.Gerardo gave us what we considered to be a great price to pull out all of the cabinets, install more sub-flooring in order to raise them up to the level of the tile floor, re-install the cabinets, sand them, stain them, coat them with polyurethane and install the hardware which we  had already purchased.  He also removed and hauled away the old countertops, disconnected the old sink and garbage disposal, disconnected our gas range and double ovens, then reconnected all of this when the jobs were done.  In addition, the cabinet section that contained our double ovens went from the floor to the ceiling of the kitchen.  In order to elevate the floor in this area, the existing cabinetry had to be cut down enough to fit the new space.  This was done masterfully.  You would never be able to look at it and see that it was altered in any way.  Gerardo also took down the old light that hung above our kitchen table and installed a new one for us.Our kitchen looks wonderful!  The workers always arrived on time and were courteous and kind.  They always cleaned up thoroughly when they left.  This is the third major job that CRS has done for us, but it won't be the last.  They have done tile work, painting and now kitchen renovation.  Every job has been done with professional quality and for a great price.  We would recommend them highly to anyone who needed to have any of these jobs completed."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Ideally, it's best to stain your dock once per year. Applying stain doesn't just keep it looking nice and new; it also helps extend the dock’s lifespan. Since you want to ensure water levels are at their lowest, it's best to have this project done by a professional dock repair service in the cooler autumn or early winter months. 

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.

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.

Apply a wood stain or sealant to properly maintain a wood deck railing and keep it looking new. Sealants protect wood from moisture and weathering. Regularly inspect the railing for loose screws, damaged balusters, and other signs of wear to make timely repairs. Routinely clean the railing using mild soap, water, and a soft bristle brush.
