Fresh Coat is a residential and commercial painting company which places a direct focus on quality work and customer service. We offer free, prompt, and detailed quotes and are able to provide a variety of different services. Those services include Interior Painting, Exterior Painting, Deck Refinishing, Wall-Paper Removal, Popcorn Ceiling Removal, Cabinet Refinishing, and Door & Window Refinishing. Fresh Coat was initially started with the intention of wanting to improve the customer experience by providing superior service and quality work. Our focus then, as it is still today, is to provide excellent customer service and preparation-orientated quality work with competitive pricing. We want to be part of changing an industry that has struggled maintaining core business values, such as being dependable, displaying trust, and providing honest service. It is these values that we seek in our employees and what we want to broadcast to our customers.

"The team always showed up exactly when they said they would. Not an hour late, not 15 min. late, exactly on time. How often do you get service like that! And got the job done just when they said it would be done."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

While your painters may have a certain price point in mind based on the materials and labor they estimate it will take to paint your house, it may be possible to negotiate with contractors, especially if you have multiple quotes to use as leverage. (A painter may be willing to offer some leeway to keep your business.) You might also be able to score a better deal by paying for your services upfront or bundling multiple services.

Yes, you should prime a fiberglass bathtub before painting it. The primer improves the paint’s adhesion, strengthening and increasing the durability of the final result. While you can buy primer separately, bathtub and tile refinishing kits come with a primer designed to work with the paint and hardener.

You should wait for caulk to cure before painting it. Silicone and acrylic latex caulk can take anywhere from one to 10 days to fully cure, and polyurethane may take 10 to 12 days to cure. Always follow the instructions on the label when it comes to painting over caulk because different types require different drying and curing times.   

Chalk paint can be applied without sanding first. Keep in mind that while there are a lot of chalk paint color options available, there aren’t as many choices as latex or oil-based paint.

You can also learn how to paint furniture without sanding using a liquid deglosser, sometimes referred to as liquid sandpaper. This can remove any old paint, gloss, or varnish, without the need to manually sand. Apply the deglosser using a cloth, then wait for the chemical to penetrate through the surface. Once it soaks through, you should be able to wipe away the residue with a towel. 

While you can use wall paint on the ceiling, there are some differences between ceiling and wall paint. Ceiling paint tends to be thicker, cover discoloration better, and comes in a more limited color selection. Wall paint is thinner, holds up to regular cleaning better, and is available in an almost endless variety of colors.
