Transform your space with Washingtonian Companies, your interior/exterior design-build team. Whether it's roofing, windows, siding, decks, kitchens, bathrooms, or additions, we are your trusted partner to bring your vision to life and help personalize your surroundings.
"We were 100% satisfied with Washingtonian and with their work building our addition and deck. Not only was the workmanship and quality of the construction outstanding, but they operated with honesty and integrity. Their goal was our satisfaction and building a quality addition and deck. They accomplished all three and were reliable, dependable and conscientious. At no time did we believe that they had over-committed or were unable to deliver on what they had promised. They never cut corners to rush to another job nor did I ever feel that they were not spending the necessary time to ensure that the work on our job was thorough and complete. Travis, Kris and their crew were 100% professional, communicative and transparent. We will be using Washingtonian again, without hesitation. Our experience was excellent and they did an awesome job."

Ace Fence, Decks, & Patios is now one of Maryland's & DC leading and most innovative deck and patio companies with two offices in Maryland and our new branch in Washington, DC. We have worked on many outdoors projects with complex or custom requirements. Our professionals have first-hand experience since 98'. We work with custom designs to deliver architectural consistency with the rest of your home, ensuring our designs look less like "add-ons" and more original to your home. Care is also taken with every detail of your project, beginning from design, and continuing all the way to the detailing in the finish work.
"I had a great experience with this company. Everyone I spoke to was very professional (including Eli, Sonia, Cristina, and Dennis). Unlike some other companies, it was very easy to schedule a time for the sales team to come out and give me a quote AND Eli got the quote back to me super fast. Once I decided on a patio design, the office kept me informed of how long it would take for the materials to arrive and when the team would start working. The team who worked on the patio was very efficient and you could tell that they knew what they were doing. The project turned out great!"

Your pool signals it needs resurfacing when you observe noticeable plaster flakes, peels, and surface stains on its finish. Identifying rough textures and visible cracks along the pool walls or steps provides clear evidence of severe deterioration. Diligent inspections and a proactive approach ensure that immediate resurfacing preserves the pool’s structural integrity and maintains its striking appearance. Plan on resurfacing every 10 years.
Yes—as long as the base coat is solid, you can add a fresh layer right on top. The surface needs a deep clean, minor crack repairs, and a good acid wash so the new plaster sticks. A seasoned pool professional will handle the preparation and application, providing you with a finish that looks sharp and withstands daily use.
A solid plaster job should hold up for five to 10 years. Maintain optimal water chemistry and adhere to a regular cleaning routine to maximize the lifespan of the surface. Annual inspections from a local pool pro help you catch and repair small issues early and keep the finish looking sharp.
