Julian Hodges - Featured Project of the Month by Truitt & White
This month featured project brings you beautifully crafted gates and entryways from local craftsman Julian Hodges. For over 35 years, Mr. Hodges has been designing and crafting custom wooden gates in Berkeley and the greater Bay Area.
His projects mainly feature old growth, vertical grained redwood or western red cedar which is air or kiln dried. The gates are fully mortised and tenoned (male / female joints) and a very powerful epoxy is used to glue the parts together. Wherever a floating panel rides in a dado, drainage is provided in the form of several holes that are out of sight that allow any rain water to be ushered out at the bottom of the gate enabling the gate to dry itself rather than staying damp which otherwise could lead to long term decomposition of the wood.
Adding to the unique feel of each gate, Julian creates his own custom hardware from heavy gauge steel, which also provides a pleasing solid sound as it operates.
All gates are then finished in a penetrating oil seal which optimizes the longevity and good appearance of the gates.

A complete residential garage floor restoration designed to transform an aged, cracked concrete slab into an ultra-durable, showroom-grade workspace in Ventura. Rather than applying thin DIY roll-on paint or utilizing acid washes, this project involved industrial-grade mechanical surface preparation and a multi-layer protective coating system: Planetary Diamond Grinding: Mechanically ground the entire garage concrete slab using heavy planetary diamond grinders connected to high-efficiency HEPA dust extractors to open concrete pores for maximum coating adhesion. Perimeter Stem Wall Detailing: Hand-ground the vertical concrete stem walls along every perimeter edge to ensure the coating system extends seamlessly up the borders for full perimeter protection. Structural Crack & Pit Restoration: Chased, cleaned, and filled all surface stress fractures, joints, and spalled areas flush with the slab using high-strength structural repair menders prior to base coat application. Full Flake Broadcast: Applied a heavy-duty commercial base coat followed immediately by a 100% full broadcast of multi-tone decorative color flakes across the floor and stem walls, creating uniform texture and built-in slip resistance.Industrial Polyaspartic Clear Coat: Sealed the entire system with an industrial, non-yellowing clear topcoat engineered to resist hot-tire pickup, fluid leaks, oil drips, and dropped tools while remaining easy to clean.Family-owned and operating across Ventura County since 2005. Fully licensed and insured (Lic #908395).Contact: David at (805) 907-1017Contractor: C&N Decorative Concrete

There are many challenges in Milwaukee commercial exterior painting.
With such a wide variety of building fascia materials requiring different coatings, materials and application equipment, there are varying environmental and atmospheric conditions to deal with and elaborate equipment required to complete many of the jobs. Hi-rise buildings need staging, weatherproofing, special machinery and applicator lifts to reach all surfaces.
One of the toughest challenges is the requirement to complete the Milwaukee commercial exterior painting project while the business or government office is in continuous operation. All of this requires professionalism, experience, expertise and knowledge that can only be gained by years of work with the diverse coatings and equipment that is necessary to complete large exterior commercial painting projects.
Richmond Painting is regularly selected by facility owners and general contracting firms. For the right commercial exterior painting job, we’ll travel as far south as Libertyville, IL and as far north as Mequon, WI. From where we are centrally located in Racine, WI, Richmond Commercial Painting dispatches professional crews and equipment to paint commercial building exteriors throughout the area.
Commercial Exterior Painting ServicesAt Richmond Commercial Painting our professionals are available to assist with every aspect of the exterior commercial painting project, from planning, to design, to budgeting, to application and completion. With a solid record of projects completed on time and within budget, our expertise will make any job move like a well-oiled machine; smoothly and quietly.
Whether the job requirements are for using elastomeric coatings to weatherproof masonry exterior walls, applying two-part epoxies, spraying high-solids paint for protecting exposed metal, or any of the other specialty architectural coatings, we have the experience, equipment and highly trained personnel to satisfactorily complete the project. We can also tap a network of competent tuck-and- point subcontractors to repair any joints, corners or sprawls in brick or masonry.
Our experienced project managers provide their years of background in all types of exterior coatings jobs to make every commercial painting project a successful joint venture with the owner, architect-designer and/or general contractor. We effectively dovetail our portion of the project with those of the other trades, contributing to a smooth “critical flow” on the job.
Our portfolio of successfully completed projects includes all types of commercial exterior painting projects: hotels, hi-rise office buildings, factories, warehouses, industrial parks, schools, churches, apartment buildings and just about every other type of commercial facility you can find around Milwaukee.
Our clients have learned that with the professional, commercial exterior painting services provided by Richmond Painting, Inc., a job done right the first time saves money over one that requires a number of return visits to the job to touch-up or correct flaws. Keeping that in mind, we’ve found that it really costs no more in the long run to hire the very best.

A full concrete floor restoration and epoxy coating system completed for an enclosed sunroom in Ventura, CA [source: 7, 8]. Enclosed sunrooms and patio rooms present unique challenges: they endure intense direct sunlight, heavy daily foot traffic, and the shifting temperatures of indoor-outdoor California living. This space required a durable, long-lasting surface that could handle harsh UV exposure without blinding glare, hot-tire pickup, or chemical breakdown.
Mechanical Diamond Grinding: Prepared the entire concrete slab using heavy Husqvarna planetary diamond grinders connected directly to continuous pulse HEPA dust extractors [source: 1, 3, 5]. We strictly avoid acid etching and chemical washes, opening the concrete’s pores purely mechanically to ensure an unbreakable bond without airborne dust or lingering odors [source: 3, 5].
Substrate & Crack Remediation: Chased, cleaned, and patched all surface fractures, joints, and micro-imperfections flush with the slab to create a level, seamless foundation.
Commercial Epoxy Base Coat & Decorative Blend: Applied an industrial-grade epoxy base coat followed immediately by a full, edge-to-edge broadcast of decorative color chips, creating uniform texture, hiding substrate flaws, and providing built-in slip resistance [source: 7, 8].
Matte UV-Stable Poly Aspartic Topcoat: Finished the floor with a heavy-duty, non-yellowing poly aspartic clear coat specified in an anti-glare matte finish [source: 7, 8]. The matte sheen diffuses harsh sun glare streaming through the sunroom windows while resisting hot patio furniture, pet claws, stains, and daily wear [source: 7, 8].
