We are a Home Improvement business that specializes in the smaller jobs that most contractors are not interested in. We have 1 full time employee and several skilled part time employees that can be called upon when necessary. The business is fairly new, but I have been working in the trades for 21 years. We also offer referral discounts, and incentives for customers that have work done by us.

"I contacted Gloria after seeing her design display at a local home show. She arrived promptly on ours visits. We live in an open concept town-home. She helped me select furniture for the living room, sun porch, master bedroom and converting second bedroom to an office. She staged each room using several of our own pieces which saved us money. I find it overwhelming shopping on the internet and one of the best services Gloria provided was shopping on the internet as well as at stores. She took the overload of shopping online off my shoulders. Her hourly rate was reasonable for shopping as well as her staging charge. Contact Gloria to see several pictures of the rooms she has designed for me."

I run a small business focusing on quality. I generally have two helpers and do one job at a time. I ask for the customer to advance money for materials only and the balance of the job quote on their satisfaction of a complete job. I will only use a sub-contractor in the event there is a lot of work outside my expertise.

Painting questions, answered by experts

You should typically be able to paint baseboards without removing them. If you remove baseboards for painting, you risk creating large nail holes or cracks when putting them back in place after the job is complete. If you need to remove the feature, it is possible to remove baseboards, paint them in another location, and reinstall them.

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.

The most common reason paint peels is because moisture gets trapped underneath it and disrupts its bond with the wall. Other causes for peeling paint include a poor original paint job, painting over a surface with dirt or other foreign material on it, or applying paint coats that are too thick.

Textured or older walls with years of wear can make matching trickier. Paint on these surfaces may catch the light differently or have faded unevenly. Try to match in a smoother, less worn spot (such as behind a door or piece of art). You may also want to paint a small test swatch and let it dry completely before deciding, as it may look significantly different once it has cured.

While we can’t stop you, we don’t recommend using ceiling paint on walls. Ceiling paint is designed to be flat and less durable, which means it won’t stand up well to scrubbing or regular contact. It’s often limited in color selection. If you’re painting a low-traffic area, such as a closet, ceiling paint might work in an absolute pinch. But for most walls, it’s worth using a more durable, wall-specific formula.
