[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, I didn't know what whitewashing was. The house in the link with just a few red patches here and there looks like it just hasn't been painted in years. If I saw this prior to knowing about whitewashing I'd just assume it was really shabby and poorly maintained inside. Isn't the maintenance horrible, to maintain the whitewashed look?[/quote] My understanding is that it is much less trouble than paint. Think about it -- if a little of the whitewash flakes off, it doesn't change the look all that much. That said, our last house was painted brick in an historic district, and other than touching it up here and there once or twice, we only had it painted once in the ten years we lived there. The windows needed painting about every 3-4 years. [/quote]
