Can I repaint only a few spots in a room?

• <div><p>Rather than learning how to repaint a room in its entirety, you might want to touch up areas that are showing worn paint or damage. Learning <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-match-paint-after-patching-wall.htm">how to match the paint color already on the walls</a> can be challenging, though. If you don’t have any of the original paint, your local hardware store might have a record in your account of your past paint color purchases. Otherwise, remove and take a small piece of painted drywall to the hardware store to do paint matching. Test the new paint in a hidden area to be sure it matches. </p></div>

Q: What is the best paint finish for painted shutters?

• <div><p>While flat and satin finishes are ideal for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/choose-right-finish-your-front-door.htm">garage or front doors</a>, siding, and trim, gloss and semi-gloss are more common on shutters. That&rsquo;s because these types of finishes highlight this proportionally smaller exterior home feature, adding both contrast and layers of texture to the overall facade. Other types of finishes aren&rsquo;t off limits, but you&rsquo;ll have more success by choosing one that provides a nice sheen. </p></div>

Q: What should I do if I used exterior paint inside?

• <div><p>The biggest issue with painting your interior walls with exterior paint isn&rsquo;t the way the paint looks or performs&mdash;it&rsquo;s the lack of ventilation. The higher quantities of VOCs in exterior paint will have a harder time dispersing in an enclosed space, so do everything you can to direct them out&mdash;like turning on a fan and opening your windows and doors. Afterward, you can simply prime and redo your walls with interior paint, and no one will know the difference.</p></div>

Q: How often should you repaint your bathroom?

• <div><p>Generally, you should <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-paint-bathrooms.htm">paint your bathroom</a> every three to four years. Seven years is usually the maximum time you should allow between refreshes. How often you should repaint your bathroom depends on the type of material you used on the walls or ceiling, the average moisture and humidity level in the room, and the quality of the paint.</p></div>

Q: What is the most durable paint for a bathroom?

• <div><p>In terms of durability, the best paint for a bathroom is a semi-gloss paint. Higher gloss finishes are the most durable, easy-to-clean, and mold-resistant options. However, semi-gloss paint is better suited to walls and ceilings than high-gloss paint, which tends to highlight imperfections and is better suited to details like trim, window frames, and cabinetry.</p></div>

Phil and his crew rearranged their current jobs to ensure that our floors were refinished in time to get the painting done before our move-in date. We also asked them to remove all the baseboards and quarter round - which was good thing because then we could see how poorly the flooring had been...
