"I donâ t often write reviews but was warranted in this instance. We have 3 rental properties and have dealt with a ton of contractors over the years, many have been inconsistent with communication, adhering to agreed upon time frames, and quality of work. Jonathan and his team are top notch. Got back soon after request, arrived on time, job was done quickly, efficiently, and with attention to detail. Very happy with quality of work. Would definitely recommend."

Complete exterior and Complete interiors only please *Saturday by Appointment Only*

"Another beautiful paint job delivered by Brent Garvey Painting! Outstanding attention to detail. Careful and thorough prep work. Quality products and excellent color matching to my very exacting requirements. An experienced crew of professional painters and a master carpenter arrived everyday on time and left a clean job site at days end. They were very personable and easy to work with. The siding on one side of my home needed to be replaced as a result of decades of sun, salt air, and being battered by winter storms for decades. The new work blends flawlessly with the old! This is the second time Brent Garvey and his crew of professionals have delivered a 5 star job for my home. The first time was 13 years ago. When it was time to repaint this year I didn't hesitate to call him to come back to do it again!"

"Wonderful! From the estimate of our job, paint choices, to the completion of our work. Communication was clear, job completed in a timely manner, the crew was exceptional, polite, courteous and good work ethic.

The pricing was very competitive and we would use Diaz Professional Painting for all future painting needs. We highly recommend Felipe and his crew!"

"I found Melvin by chance after looking for several contractors to paint our townhome (prices were outrageous, between 17k-35k) to paint a 1800sq ft place with very high ceilings in places. Painting was very reasonable at about $9500 plus materials (at about $3000). Their quality of work patching holes big and small, making cracks on the wall look like it never happened, and their attention to detail was unmatched while painting baseboards, door trims, walls and ALL our cabinetry (bathrooms and kitchen). Melvin is a perfectionist! I have never been able to say that about any painter. I know that if you are reading this it will be hard for you to grasp how great this company is. But let me give you peace of mind: YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. THEY HAVE LOADS of pictures of their work for reference. They also have the most awesome handyman (Josue) and the counter top guy (Marvin).. he was incredible and very skilled at refinishing 3 bathroom counter tops. They are very organized and clean up after themselves. I truly feel that I was the luckiest person to have found them and they turn my home into an absolute gem 💎. Please give them a chance. I know how stressful it can be, to be amidst selling your home plus finding the right people to give your place some upgrades. This company was an absolute great find."

"Patrick and his crew did a great job on our house. They started the job right doing a lot of prep work to ensure that the paint would last a long time. The crew working were meticulous, cleaned up carefully at the end of every day, and respectful. Neighbors commented about what a great job the crew were doing and how good the work looked. The final product looks great, and Patrick provided some good advice around color scheme to really make the most of the work being done."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

In addition to paint, you’ll need some other supplies to paint a house yourself. These include: 

  • Brushes: $3–$20 each

  • Tape: $3–$10 per roll

  • Drop cloth: $5–$30 each

  • Tray: $2–$5 each

  • Rollers: $10–$100 each

  • House ladder: $100–$300

Most spray paint is fully dry after 24 hours, but knowing when the spray paint is dry depends on the type of dry paint criteria. Surface dry is a surface that’s dry enough for you to apply another coat of paint. Touch dryness is a little dryer than surface dryness and will feel dry if you gently touch it, but it’s really wet underneath the initial touch. Hard dry feels fully dry but can dent or smudge upon extra pressure. Thoroughly dry paint is completely dry. 

With a protective top coat, fiberglass door paint will last two or more years. Sometimes, this life span can be even shorter depending on what elements the door is exposed to. Conditions like heavy rain and snowfall don’t usually cause issues, but high temperatures and direct sunlight can quickly lead to cracking and bubbling. 

Painting the interior of a single room will take the average DIYer between 6 and 10 hours. However, your timeframe could increase or decrease based on factors such as your skill level, room size, as well as the number of light switch plates, outlet covers, and other small objects to work around.

In most cases, painting your brick house is a fine idea that can open up new aesthetic possibilities. However, the paint can slightly shorten the life span of brick, especially if moisture gets trapped underneath the paint layer. Once you paint, you’ll have to keep up with maintenance to avoid flaking and blisters.
