Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if you select wallpaper that is designed to be paintable. This type of paper is meant to add texture to walls. Alternatively, if you have old wallpaper you’d like to cover up, you can often paint over that instead of removing it. However, it needs to be smooth, damage-free, and non-textured. Otherwise, any bumps, tears, and texture will show through the paint.

Painting your home exterior costs $1,400 to $6,000. The actual price will depend on many factors like the size of your home, what kind of paint you use, and the siding type. Most Mediterranean homes have stucco siding, but yours may have a different material. You should also account for other add-ons like painting the trim, garage, porch, gutters, deck, and more.

The average cost of installing baseboards ranges from $800 to $2,250. Painting your baseboards adds about $1 to $6 per linear foot. The baseboard materials, labor costs, baseboard style, and site preparation can all impact how much you pay.

Yes, a mist coat can be too thick. If you don’t dilute the mist coat enough and you apply a thick coat to the wall, the plaster won’t be able to evenly absorb the coat. This can cause the later coats of paint to not adhere to the mist coat or plaster, leaving behind flaking, peeling, or bubbling paint. Even if it doesn’t flake or peel right away, a thick primary layer of mist coat can also cause the final paint job to look uneven.
