Frequently Asked Questions

Take a look here to see if we already answered your question.

What is the difference between painting and refinishing kitchen cabinets?

Painting involves applying a new coat of paint to your cabinets, providing a fresh, updated look in a color of your choice. Refinishing typically involves stripping the existing finish, sanding, and then applying a new stain or paint. Refinishing can restore the natural wood grain or completely change the color and appearance of the cabinets.
The best answer is to paint before it's gets too bad. The majority of the time spent on exterior painting is in surface preparation, sanding, patching, etc. If you paint every 4-6 years, there will be less time spent on the prep work than if you paint every 10-15 years. Maintaining your paint job will not only keep your home always looking its best; it will also reduce the risk of dry- rot and other costly problems that come from neglect.

How long does the kitchen cabinet painting process take?

The duration of the process can vary depending on the size of your kitchen and the condition of your cabinets. On average, it takes about 3-5 days to complete the project, including preparation, painting, and drying time.

Do I need to empty my cabinets before painting?

Yes, it is recommended to empty your cabinets before we begin the painting process. This ensures that no items are damaged and allows us to work more efficiently.

Will there be a lot of dust and mess during the painting process?

We take great care to minimize dust and mess. We use dustless sanding techniques and protect your kitchen surfaces with plastic sheeting and drop cloths. We also clean up thoroughly at the end of each day.

Can you help me choose a color for my cabinets?

Absolutely! We offer color consultation services to help you choose the perfect color and finish that will complement your kitchen’s overall design and your personal style.

The force of the water is strong enough to clean deeply without the need for harsh chemicals, making it an effective and eco-friendly cleaning solution.

How often should I have my property pressure cleaned?

The frequency of pressure cleaning depends on the location and environment. For most homes and businesses in Sarasota and Manatee counties, we recommend pressure cleaning once or twice a year to maintain a clean, fresh appearance and prevent the buildup of dirt and mildew.

Can pressure cleaning help with mold and mildew removal?

Yes, pressure cleaning is highly effective at removing mold, mildew, algae, and other organic growth from surfaces. Regular cleaning can help prevent these issues from recurring and keep your property looking its best.

What is the difference between pressure cleaning and soft washing?

Pressure cleaning uses high-pressure water to clean surfaces, while soft washing uses a lower pressure combined with special cleaning solutions to safely clean more delicate surfaces like roofs, siding, and painted areas. We offer both services and will recommend the best method based on your needs.

Do I need to be home during the pressure cleaning service?

You do not need to be home during the service, but we do recommend being available at the start to discuss any specific areas of concern. Our team will complete the job efficiently and leave your property clean and refreshed.

What is paver sealing, and why is it important?

Paver sealing is the process of applying a protective coating to your pavers to enhance their appearance and longevity. It helps prevent staining, reduces the growth of weeds and algae, protects against UV damage, and keeps the pavers looking vibrant by enhancing their color.

How often should I have my pavers sealed?

Pavers typically need to be sealed every 2-3 years, depending on exposure to the elements and foot or vehicle traffic. High-traffic areas or those exposed to harsh weather may require more frequent sealing.

Can all types of pavers be sealed?

Yes, most types of pavers, including concrete, brick, and natural stone, can be sealed. Our team will assess your pavers to ensure the appropriate sealer is used for optimal protection and appearance.

How long does the paver sealing process take?

The paver sealing process usually takes 1-2 days, depending on the size of the area and weather conditions. This includes time for cleaning, drying, and applying the sealer. The pavers need to be fully dry before the sealer is applied, which may extend the timeline slightly in humid conditions.

What preparation is needed before sealing my pavers?

Before sealing, pavers need to be thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, grime, and any stains. This often involves pressure washing. If the pavers are newly installed, they should also be given time to settle, usually around 30 days, before sealing.

What are the benefits of sealing pavers?

Sealing pavers offers several benefits, including:

-- Protection from stains caused by oil, grease, and other substances.
-- Enhanced color and appearance, making your pavers look more vibrant.
-- Prevention of weed growth and ant infestations between the paver joints.
-- Resistance to UV damage, reducing the likelihood of fading over time.
-- Protection against erosion of the paver joints.

Will sealing my pavers make them slippery?

When applied correctly, paver sealers should not make your pavers slippery. We use sealers that provide a protective layer without creating a slick surface, ensuring safety while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of your pavers.

How long does it take for the sealer to dry, and when can I use the area again?

The sealer typically dries to the touch within a few hours, but it's best to avoid heavy foot traffic for at least 24 hours and vehicle traffic for 48-72 hours to ensure the sealer cures properly.

What should I do if I notice the sealer is wearing off?

If you notice that the sealer is wearing off or the pavers are losing their vibrancy, it's time to consider reapplying the sealer. Regular maintenance can help keep your pavers in excellent condition and extend the life of the seal.

Can I seal my pavers myself, or should I hire a professional?

While DIY paver sealing kits are available, hiring a professional ensures that the job is done correctly and efficiently. Professionals have the right tools, experience, and knowledge to properly clean, prep, and seal your pavers, resulting in a more durable and aesthetically pleasing finish.

What are the signs that my pavers need to be resealed?

Signs that your pavers need resealing include fading colors, an increase in weed growth between joints, water soaking into the pavers rather than beading on the surface, and a dull or worn appearance.

How much does paver sealing cost?

The cost of paver sealing depends on the size of the area, the type of pavers, and the condition of the surface. We provide a detailed and transparent estimate after assessing your specific needs.

Does sealing pavers prevent weeds and ants?

Yes, sealing pavers helps to prevent weeds from growing between the joints and reduces the likelihood of ant infestations by hardening the sand in the joints, making it less appealing for ants to burrow.

How do I maintain my pavers after they’ve been sealed?

Maintaining sealed pavers is relatively simple. Regularly sweep away debris, clean spills as soon as possible, and occasionally wash the pavers with a mild detergent and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or high-pressure washing, which can degrade the sealer over time.

How do I schedule a paver sealing service?

To schedule a paver sealing service, contact Ultimate Services Co. We’ll discuss your needs, assess your pavers, and set up a convenient time for the service.
