"I can't say enough about the amazing job Cliff Stuart Interior Painting did with our complete interior house paint job. Cliff and his crew took the time to carefully remove all the lighting, windows, and electrical hardware in each of the rooms (and replaced at the end), repaired all the holes and damaged areas, and then hand painted primer and two coats of paint on all the walls, trim, and ceilings. This 31 year old house now looks as good as any of the new build model homes! We're so pleased with how it turned out. Cliff is a professional and shows up when he says he'll be there, takes care of the house during the process as if it were his own, and provides sage recommendation on the things you never even considered when you started the process. You get what you pay for and I believe I got everything I was hoping to receive and then some. You can find cheaper spray on paint companies out there, but I'm VERY satisfied with our results from hiring Cliff and his team!"

"I am retired military and am used to "attention to detail". Kind Home Painting Company did not disappoint. From the moment Jeff stopped by to tell us about their company, to the end of the painting, I found everyone along the journey to be very professional with much attention to detail. I have had my house painted several times, and Kind Homes is the best! Definitely, if you are in the market for a paint job, I highly recommend this company. Jeff managed the project and he and his supervisor, Kurt, came by frequently to inspect the progress. They have a great paint crew...Daniel Ford"

"We hired Painting Plus to paint our house that is in much need of painting. Our house is older, and has managed to be about 5 different colors. The process was easy, we were able to go down to our local painting store and look at colors, and choose from there. The owner, Derrick communicated with us via email, which made things super easy. Jesus was the individual who painted our house, he made sure he was clear about what we wanted, provided suggestions on what would look the best, informed us of his comings and goings throughout the day. He did a wonderful job. He left each day and cleaned up his tools, and left no mess. He was professional and respectful. We could not be happier with our choice, the finished product and plan to hire again for our rental property."

"I finally love my house! We bought our home 7 years ago and it had just been painted by the previous owner and the color was horrible. A flesh/band aid color with brown trim. But I could not justify the expense at the time but now I can! The paint job was meticulous, the crew was polite and professional, and we are just thrilled with the quality, the timeliness, and the price!"

"Kylan was contracted to stain an old fence. The previous stain was discontinued, so he had to find something else that would match. And it matched perfectly! He was always on time. He left the worksite spotless. And he really does impeccable work. Plus his pricing is very competitive and certainly worth every penny. Now Iâ m tempted to find other projects that require painting!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

If it rains after you paint your fence, you may need to apply another coat of paint after the fence thoroughly dries. This will ensure a good seal if the rain weakened any areas of the paint. However, if your paint had enough time to dry thoroughly before it rained, you should have no problem.

Manufacturers use a different process and formula for exterior paint versus interior. The exterior formula has to withstand elements like temperature, UV lighting, moisture, wind, and debris. Interior paint doesn’t need to be as tough, only exposed to dust, scratches, dents, scuff marks, and the like.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.

Preparation includes cleaning the fence, sanding any rough areas, applying a primer if necessary, and ensuring dry weather for application.
