Your Limewash Project, From Consultation to Completion
Limewash lends Garden Oaks and Galleria-area brick a soft, weathered character, and That 1 Painter applies this mineral wash by hand for natural depth. Our crews prep and dampen the masonry so the wash bonds into the brick.
We assess your brick, stone, or stucco surface to ensure it's suitable for limewash application, check moisture levels, and discuss opacity, color options, and the organic finish style you're looking for.

Limewash for Houston Homes
Limewash across Memorial, Hunters Creek Village, and Garden Oaks has quietly become one of the most-requested exterior finishes on Memorial custom homes. It reads as a softened, chalky, old-world finish over brick or stucco, and it stays breathable in a way that acrylic paint does not, which matters on older masonry that still needs to move moisture out of the wall assembly through humid Gulf Coast summers.
The finish itself is a mineral coating, and the prep is closer to plaster work than to painting. Crews pressure-wash, spot-repair mortar, and stage a mineral primer where the substrate calls for it, then apply the limewash in two or three passes so the finish has the depth and variation that makes it read authentically.
Limewash is a real alternative to a full brick painting commitment for homeowners who want the softened look without locking the substrate into a permanent maintenance cycle. The scope pairs cleanly with a full pressure wash of the surrounding hardscape.
Our 3-Year Warranty
Your peace of mind, at the top of mind with our three-year transferable warranty. Covers the painting job, even if you sell the house.
