Although roofing, siding and windows has always been my companies primary focus, we have a lead person who specializes in each trade. We offer competitive pricing and quality work in painting, carpet, electrical, drywall, laminate flooring and snow removal. As the owner I am on the job from the initial inspection or estimate to the final walk through. All of the work is done in house instead of sub-contracting. Being owner operated I am in several different trades but have a staff member solely dedicated to each trade stated above with that being their only trade to ensure quality control.

"Did a great job. Would definitely hire again."

"Aaron gave us an estimate, and we eventually decided on a panty-laundry room area with tall ceilings, which was completed in two days. Two days before the kitchen renovation! He fit us into his schedule. We are very grateful. The painting job was well done. It looked nice, and our walls were in bad shape before he started. The old wallpaper we took off left a mess behind. They cleaned the walls and made everything look great! We would hire Aaron Sweeney for painting again in the future."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

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 how to match the paint color already on the walls 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.

Yes, primer is an essential step for preventing rust formation on your newly-painted metal surface. Additionally, primer can help the paint stick to the metal better and can slow down the formation of rust if you buy a rust-inhibiting primer. Just be sure to avoid water-based primers, which aren't made for metal surfaces.

In some cases, you may be able to skip the primer and paint over old paint. If you’re painting over paint that’s in good condition and is a similar color and finish to the new paint, you probably don’t need to use primer. If the old paint is dark or uneven or the wall has stains or damage, you’ll want to apply primer before a new coat of paint.

Yes, with some primers, you can prime and paint on the same day. It depends on how long your primer takes to fully dry. Some can dry within an hour while others may take a fully 24 hours.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it’s not always ideal. If the wallpaper is firmly adhered, has no bubbling or peeling, and isn’t textured, you can try to prime and paint over it. Use an oil-based primer to prevent the adhesive from bleeding through. However, if the paper is damaged or loose, removal is the better long-term solution.
