Is it less expensive to paint shutters or replace them?

• <div><p>It’s less expensive to paint shutters than to replace them. The average cost to repaint all of the shutters on a house is $350. That’s roughly half the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-replace-exterior-shutters.htm">cost of replacing shutters</a>, which is around $720. Many variables go into these figures, of course. Installing new vinyl shutters, one of the cheapest materials, might save money compared to a couple of coats of expensive oil paint. Most of the time, though, painting saves money. </p></div>

Q: Can you paint drop ceiling tiles?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to paint certain drop ceiling tiles, including those made of plastic, metal, and wood. Painting fiberboard ceiling tiles is technically possible, but the results rarely look appealing, so it&rsquo;s best to replace them with new tiles, especially given how affordable they are. If you do paint your drop ceiling tiles, it&rsquo;s a good idea to use a paint sprayer and a rapidly-drying paint to avoid drips. Latex paint is often a good choice, especially if you thin it and apply it using a sprayer.</p></div>

Q: Do painting services include wall preparation?

• <div><p>Yes, many services include patching holes, sanding, and priming. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

Q: How long do painted gutters last?

• <div><p>Because gutters are consistently exposed to elements like water and humidity, any paint applied to them will have a shorter life span than other exterior home features, like siding and shutters. In general, painted gutters will need to be touched up or completely repainted every 5 to 10 years, though you may get a couple extra years with regular care and maintenance.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint directly on new plaster?

• <div><p>New plaster must be fully dry and cured before painting. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-plaster-take-to-dry.htm">drying time for plaster</a> ranges from 1 to 4 hours, but the curing process can take more than five days, depending on various factors, including humidity levels, temperature, the amount of plaster used, and airflow in the area. You should always apply primer before painting plaster. </p></div>

They did an amazing job! You can never tell the vehicle was even wrecked. Everything matches up perfectly, the paint, seams, everything. They finished the work in a week exactly. Plus, they kept me notified on the progress of the repair. A+ in my book.

This pro came to see what needed to be done, gave me an estimate of the cost to redo these by sanding, spray painting with primer, and the material cost. When he showed up as promised, he covered all the exposed portions of the porch with plastic and cardboard to avoid unwanted paint smears. The handrails look almost new and that is amazing since they are original to the house and have been painted many times. Very professional."
