"Jorge was great. He went above and beyond. I needed an aluminum garage repainted. Other companies wanted to just pressure wash it and paint. Jorge sanded to bare metal, primed it then repainted. Highly recommended. Out of 10 stars, he’s a 12."

"This contractor performed a large number of repair/renovation tasks ranging from hard to reach light bulb replacement and under sink plumbing repairs which were very stubborn to ceramic tile removal and replacement. Also did miscellaneous hardware replacement and wood door repair, ceramic tile countertop joint repair, drywall removal, replacement and painting and other similar tasks which were of considerable quantity. One more notable repair was a faulty outdoor hose connection which required cutting into a basement wall and removing a portion of pipe and replacing a connection between it and the shut off valve. Naturally, the inside wall opening was still not easily navigated for the job. I add that for the past 3 years several plumbers that did other work in my house didn't have a clue of what to do and shied away fro the task."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

They provide better coverage, faster drying times, and enhanced durability.

If your already-painted walls have glossy paint, scuff the surface with 220-grit sandpaper or its equivalent before applying primer and paint. For all other paint sheen finishes, clean the walls and repair any spots that need it. Remember to protect the places that you don't intend to paint.

In most cases, you’ll need two coats of paint to ensure proper coverage. If you put down a coat of primer first, you could get away with a single coat of paint, but you’ll likely still need two coats. The only exception would be if you’re painting with a light color over a dark color, in which case you may need three or four coats of paint to ensure the dark color doesn’t show through the new paint.

You can paint over wood, wood-laminate, and metal cabinets, but you need to prepare the surface first. Plastic laminate cabinets and thin veneers may accept a layer of paint depending on their condition, but they require special techniques and paints. If your cabinets sag or have significant damage, it may be a better investment to replace your cabinets than paint over them.

Dirty or not, you should always clean the wall beforehand. Even if the wall looks sparkling clean to the naked eye, it’s good practice to wipe it down with a damp rag and mild detergent. Leftover dirt, dust, and residue can create unsightly textures or interfere with the paint’s adherence to the wall. You’ll never regret cleaning it, but you might regret skipping this step.
