Q: Do painting services include wall preparation?

• <div><p>Yes, many services include patching holes, sanding, and priming. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

Q: Should you paint a front door with a brush or a roller?

• <div><p>This depends on the size and design of your door. If your door is on the smaller side and features some unique design elements, go with a brush to ensure you get in those hard-to-reach crevices without painting outside the lines. If you&rsquo;re painting a large door, like a double door or garage door, and the panels are flat, go with a roller to get the job done quickly. </p></div>

Q: Can you paint a whole wall using a brush?

• <div><p>Yes, you can paint an entire wall using just a brush. In fact, it may make the most sense on narrow walls where a roller would be impractical, but be prepared for it to take more time. We still recommend cutting in around corners and trim, then distributing paint around the rest of the wall as evenly and smoothly as possible.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint directly on laminate?

• <div><p>You can paint directly on laminate surfaces. However, the preparation steps generally determine <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-paint-last.htm">how long the paint will last</a> and the finish quality. Laminate has a very slick surface that discourages things like grease, oil, dirt, and other substances from sticking to it. While that's great for staying clean, the slick surface also makes it difficult for paint to stick without at least some prep work. </p></div>

Jason and his crew were professional and friendly. The prep work prior to painting was detail-oriented and the paint job itself was exceptional. I’m very pleased and would highly recommend.
