Surface Evaluation. 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 on Salt Lake City Masonry

Limewash is one of the most requested exterior refreshes we see across the Avenues, Sugar House, and Holladay, where original red or orange brick on early-1900s homes reads heavy or dated. Applied correctly, limewash softens the masonry into a European chalky finish while still letting the underlying material breathe. Crews sample the wash on the actual elevation in full sun and shade before locking the mix.

The right substrate matters. Painted brick and sealed masonry do not accept traditional limewash and are handled with a mineral-paint alternative that reads similar but bonds to a sealed surface. Unsealed brick across the Avenues and Sugar House is the ideal candidate, and crews prep with a full pressure wash so the wash sits into the pore rather than on top of surface grime.

Limewash is not a set-and-forget product. It weathers gracefully over years, softening further with age, and can be refreshed on the same schedule as a normal repaint. Every limewash project is backed by our 3-year transferable warranty, and it pairs cleanly with exterior painting on trim, doors, and shutters.

Limewash FAQs in Salt Lake City

Limewash suits brick beautifully, giving Draper and Riverton homes a breathable, natural finish that soaks into the masonry rather than coating it like standard paint.

Yes. We'll sample the look during your color consultation so you can see how the finish reads on your Lehi or South Jordan brick before we commit.
