A family owned and operated Painting and Paperhanging company since 1983. Our family roots go back to Vincent's mother, who sold wallpaper from the basement of her home in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia. Vincent then gained the knowledge and expertise of installing various wall coverings from his uncle, who guided him along from a young age as his teacher and mentor. 40 years later, Vincent's Painting and Paperhanging has continued the family tradition of providing professional craftsmanship and achieving beautiful results for our customers. Let us show you what we can do for you and your family today.

"Excellent workmanship and friendly personality. Thank you"

"Kevin did an amazing job on several projects for us. He is an artist when it comes to plaster/wall repairs. He did an amazing job from beginning to end repairing and updating our kitchen. Suggested and implemented several ideas that we never thought of to make the project even then we imagined. We highly recommend Kevin and will definitely use him again."

"I hired Santos, the owner of Diaz Home remodel based on Angie?s ratings. I had about 50k of work done. A few months after work was completed I noticed the paint on the second floor hallway ceiling started to peal and crack, then noticed it on the first floor ceiling. This was clearly bad prep work on the painters he hired. I?ve tried to reach out to him but he has not responded, my next move is small claims court. I?d say stay clear. Will update this if he tries to make it right. But I?m not holding my breath."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Patchy paint can be caused by not using enough paint on the roller, applying the paint thicker in some areas than others, or repeatedly rolling over the same spot before a previous layer has dried. To ensure an even finish, use enough paint on the roller for full coverage, apply paint evenly without overlapping, and let each coat dry before applying the next one.

A single coat of primer is almost always sufficient. This is especially true if you’re painting over a smooth surface with minimal to no flaws.

Matching new paint with an old, faded color can be tricky. First, you’ll need to determine whether the paint on your house is latex-based or oil-based. Lightly scrub an inconspicuous area of your home with rubbing alcohol—if the alcohol scrubs away the paint, it’s latex-based. If not, the paint is oil-based. 

Once you have that settled, bring a paint chip or photo of the color to a paint professional and have them mix you a matching paint in the same base (latex or oil). Then paint another inconspicuous part of your house to see if it’s a match.

The best kind of paint for barns is latex paint because it’s less likely to fade, lasts for a decade, and is flexible. You can also use latex exterior paint mixed with linseed oil in your primer to make it extra durable. 

You should use either a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio of paint to paint thinner in most cases. The amount of paint should always be higher than the amount of paint thinner.
