"Excellent Work! I know why everyone gives them a top rating. William was great to work with, and the painting crew did a great job. I had a vaulted popcorn ceiling, I thought after 2 coats looked good, but they weren't satisfied and did a third coat! They paint your house as it theirs. I look forward to working with them again on a kitchen project. Look no further, and hire CU MIDWEST DESIGNS."

"Very unresponsive to my request for a quote. Disappointed that I couldn't even get them to answer the phone or reply to an email. I only got them to respond to the messaging in my "Inbox" through the portal. And that was VERY slow responses. Unsatisfied, at best."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Acrylic latex paint is the best option to use on your outdoor wrought iron fence, because it holds up well against the elements. Use a high-quality, exterior-grade paint specifically designed for use on metal. You can choose between spray paint or regular liquid paint. As for primer, it's best to use an oil-based and rust inhibiting option before painting your wrought iron fence.

How long your paint job lasts depends on the quality of the work and the type of paint used. If you clean the siding first, apply a primer if needed, and choose the right type of paint, the finish can last five to 10 years.

Sprayers use up to 30% more paint than rollers because of overspray. Some ways you can minimize the amount of wasted paint include selecting the best paint sprayer for the job, choosing a lower pressure sprayer and using a lower pressure setting, keeping the sprayer well-maintained, not spraying on a windy day, and holding the sprayer at an appropriate distance from the surface. 

You can technically use wall paint on a ceiling, but it’s not ideal. Wall paint is thinner and more prone to dripping, which makes it harder—and messier—to apply overhead. Any significant level of sheen can highlight ceiling imperfections and create glare from lighting. Flat ceiling paint is the better choice for a smooth, even finish that hides flaws.

Bubbles can appear during painting for several reasons, but poor adhesion or trapped moisture are the most common. Painting over dirty, wet, or improperly prepared surfaces leads to air or moisture getting stuck under the paint layer. Using the wrong tools, applying paint too thickly, or working in extreme temperatures and humidity can also cause bubbling. In some cases, incompatible layers of old and new paint types, like latex over oil-based, create tension, leading to blisters and bubbles.
