Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our painting services

How often should I repaint my home's interior?

The frequency for repainting interior spaces depends on several factors:

  • Living Rooms and Dining Rooms: Every 5-7 years
  • Bedrooms: Every 3-5 years
  • Kitchens and Bathrooms: Every 3-4 years (due to moisture and cooking residues)
  • Hallways and Corridors: Every 2-3 years (due to higher traffic)
  • Trim and Baseboards: Every 2-4 years
  • Ceilings: Every 7-10 years (unless there are water stains or discoloration)

These timeframes can vary based on factors such as the quality of the previous paint job, the type of paint used, the amount of sunlight exposure, and lifestyle factors (e.g., homes with children or pets may need more frequent painting).

How often should I repaint my home's exterior?

The frequency for repainting exterior surfaces depends on several factors, including the material, climate, and quality of the previous paint job:

  • Wood Siding: Every 3-7 years
  • Aluminum Siding: Every 5-10 years
  • Stucco: Every 5-10 years
  • Brick: Every 15-20 years (if painted)
  • Fiber Cement: Every 10-15 years
  • Vinyl Siding: Rarely needs repainting if properly maintained
  • Trim and Fascia: Every 2-5 years

Homes in areas with extreme weather conditions (intense sun, heavy rain, or severe winters) may need more frequent repainting. Signs that it's time to repaint include peeling, cracking, bubbling, or fading paint.

What type of paint do you recommend for different areas?

We recommend different paint types and finishes based on the specific area:

Interior Spaces:

  • Living Rooms/Bedrooms: Flat, matte, or eggshell finish - provides a smooth, elegant appearance with some washability.
  • Kitchens/Bathrooms: Satin or semi-gloss finish - more moisture-resistant and easier to clean.
  • Trim/Doors: Semi-gloss or high-gloss finish - durable and highlights architectural details.
  • Ceilings: Flat finish - hides imperfections and reduces light reflection.

Exterior Surfaces:

  • Siding: 100% acrylic latex paint - offers excellent adhesion, color retention, and weather resistance.
  • Trim: Semi-gloss or gloss finish - provides extra protection for areas exposed to more wear.
  • Decks/Porches: Specialized deck paint or stain designed for foot traffic and weather exposure.

We primarily use premium paints from Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore, which offer superior coverage, durability, and color retention. During our consultation, we'll recommend specific products based on your needs and preferences.

How long does a painting project take?

The timeline for painting projects varies based on the size and complexity of the job:

Interior Painting:

  • Single Room: 1-2 days
  • Multiple Rooms: 3-5 days
  • Entire Home Interior (2,000-2,500 sq ft): 5-7 days
  • Cabinet Painting: 3-5 days (including drying time between coats)

Exterior Painting:

  • Small to Medium Home (1,500-2,000 sq ft): 3-5 days
  • Large Home (2,500+ sq ft): 5-7 days
  • Deck or Fence Staining: 1-3 days (depending on size)

These timeframes include proper preparation, painting, and cleanup. Factors that can affect the timeline include weather conditions (for exterior projects), the amount of prep work needed, the number of colors being used, and whether furniture needs to be moved. We'll provide a more specific timeline during your consultation.

Do I need to move my furniture before you paint?

For interior painting projects, we handle most furniture moving as part of our service:

  • We can move most furniture to the center of the room and cover it with protective plastic sheeting.
  • For larger or more valuable items (pianos, antiques, large entertainment centers, etc.), we recommend you make arrangements to have these moved before we begin.
  • We ask that you remove small, fragile items, personal belongings, and wall decorations before we arrive.
  • After completing the painting, we'll return furniture to its original position.

For exterior painting, we recommend:

  • Removing or relocating outdoor furniture, grills, planters, and decorations from the work area.
  • Trimming bushes and plants that are close to the house to allow access to all surfaces.
  • Moving vehicles away from the immediate work area.

We'll discuss specific requirements for your project during our initial consultation.
