"Very satisfied with the expeditious and professional service of Sadot and the crew. Sadot came to bid the job, then set the next day to accomplish the feat. The quality was exceptional. The crew was professional and thorough. My husband and I were extremely satisfied with the results. So much so, we have asked for a couple more bids on other projects! We are very picky in who we choose, these guys were exceptional! ;-) Thank You!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Like any paint, the magnetic type has a shelf life. Depending on the formula and manufacturer, the paint can last between 12 months and 5 years for an unopened can. But even magnetic paint with a five-year shelf life can go bad sooner, depending on the storage location and temperature. Opening the tin and improperly resealing it also expedites expiration.

If your paint smells funky and is still lumpy after stirring, this is a sign it isn’t usable anymore.

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.

Your return on investment (ROI) for interior repainting work is around 107%. Repainting an interior room in your home can give it an updated look that will appeal to potential buyers. A fresh paint job could reassure buyers that you’ve cared for the home and made regular updates over the years you’ve owned it.

Aside from the primer and paint choice, consider other cost factors that can impact the overall price of your interior painting project. For example, the following items are likely to increase the cost of your project:

  • Moving furniture

  • Accent walls

  • Textured walls

  • High walls

  • Stairways or stairwells

  • Wall repairs

  • Time of year

  • Lead or asbestos testing

The best time to paint gutters is when the weather forecast predicts clear skies and low humidity. High humidity will likely prolong dry time, and rainy or snowy conditions may ruin your hard work before it can cure. If you have no other option than to work in inclement weather, consider choosing paint with a faster dry time, like acrylic or latex, rather than one that takes a while, like oil paint.
