I'm a sole proprietor. On very rare occasion, I may need to sub-contract a portion of your repairs. I'm centrally located along the shores of Lake Shelbyville, my shop is just SE of Findlay. Generally, we will discuss payment. It largely depends on the scope of the project. You and I will sit down and discuss completion goals, and if a large project, payment may be required in measurable and pre approved stages.

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

When you hire a professional painter, this expert may use a paint sprayer to repaint a room instead of a roller and brushes. Using a paint sprayer versus a roller for a DIY job can be tough for a beginner. The cost of renting or buying a sprayer will be higher than buying rollers and brushes. It can be tough to ensure even coverage with a sprayer when you’re a beginner. Avoiding splatters and overspray in other areas of the room can be difficult, too. Sprayers will save a lot of time, though.

Yes, you can paint over old deck paint, but only if it’s in good condition and still adheres well to the deck. If the paint is flaking, cracking, or peeling, you need to sand it smooth before painting or your new paint will not adhere properly to the surface.

You can paint over old exterior paint as long as you properly prepare the surface. You may need to sand your siding before painting over it, especially if you have wood siding. In some cases, if your siding is in good shape, a simple exterior primer is enough to prepare the surface for a new coat of paint. Touching up your home’s exterior can not only increase your curb appeal; it can also help your home’s siding be more durable and long-lasting.

When it comes to how to paint a brick chimney, consider that standard paint can seal in moisture and cause serious chimney problems. Instead, use a vapor-permeable sealant. You’ll first scrub and sand the chimney; then, you can patch any gaps with caulk and apply the sealant. We recommend hiring a pro for this job since it entails working on the roof, which comes with a lot of necessary safety precautions.

For painting your cinder block walls, you should use a 1/2-inch nap roller. Depending on the square footage you need to paint, you might need a 3/4-inch nap roller. Besides rollers, you can also use a paint sprayer if you have one on hand or want to rent one.
