Can you paint any type of substrate on my home?
We can paint any substrate on your home, however, we are knowledgeable in what substrates should be left unpainted (galvanized metal, glazed brick, etc)
Can you paint any time of year?
The short answer is yes. Long answer is it depends. We find the months of July-August are often too hot/humid & December-January are too cool & damp. We operate in temperatures above 35* overnight to be sure your paint has time to properly dry/cure before freezing (not just the time of day we are working).
Do you warranty interior painting?
We do! We warranty just about all of our projects for 2 years against workmanship defects. That means we won’t apply a latex paint straight over top of your oil based trim; leaving you holding the bag when the paint peels right off. We use thorough prep & take our time to be sure it’s
My home is older – do you ever run into problems with the walls you have to replace drywall or material instead of fix?
It’s rare, but we do find this from time to time. This happens from water damage, if plaster separates from the lathe, etc. Most of the time this is caught in the initial consultation/inspection stage.
How long does it take to paint a regular sized bedroom? Bathroom? Living room? Etc. ie – do you say a room a day as an estimate for how long you will be in a home?
If we are walking into a room that is ready to go, we can paint 2 coats to the walls and clean up in under 8 hours. However, if there are repairs, trim, ceilings, etc. that could be increased to 2-3 days for most rooms. We are very thorough in making sure that we apply
Will you paint over or fill in wall decor nail holes? Can you not do this if we want to put the same artwork in the same places?
As part of the removal process involving the homeowner, this allows you to decide if you want to put any decor back or start with a clean slate. We like to remove nails to leave an empty hole for decor that is to be filled and leave the nail in place as a visual reminder
Do I need to take hanging pictures and decor off my walls?
We can help with large or difficult to reach decor, but it’s recommended that you do this prior to painting. This makes sure you are able to put all items in a safe place.
Will your crew move and cover my furniture?
YES! We move and cover furniture on a daily basis. I would say our typical job is what I would call “High end occupied”. We don’t paint a lot of apartments and rarely paint empty homes, so covering and protecting your home is always on our mind. We just ask you to make the furniture
Should I have you paint multiple rooms within the same project?
If you have plans to paint multiple rooms, it’s best to do that all at once in most cases. That doesn’t mean we can’t do different phases, but if you do 1 room today and 1 room next month, the cost will be more when spread out because we have to do everything twice. Doing
Can you swatch different colors for my walls?
Of course! Just let us know and we will be happy to provide you with some samples. Better yet, we like to use Samplize or order Samplize paint samples from Ben Moore & Sherwin Williams. This allows you to use an adhesive sticker made of real paint on your walls. Best of all, it’s reversible
