"Great hire. Mr. Galvan came, assessed the job and gave me an estimate the same day. Both days of the job he, and his crew, were on time, professional and very easy to work with. Pricing was great and work was completed as agreed upon. The results were excellent. Not only would I hire again, but currently picking paint colors for the next job Mr. Galvan has estimated for us."

Painting questions, answered by experts

High-gloss paint is the most durable of the paint finishes. Most glossy paints are enamel paint made from oils, which gives them that hard, shiny surface with higher durability levels. Less durable matte finishes tend to come as acrylic, milk paint, or chalk paint. So if you’re looking for durable paint, go for one with a higher sheen, as it will be easier to clean and ideal for spaces that are subject to damage.

If you caulk after painting, a few things can happen that you definitely don't want to happen. For one, caulk is messy and can make for an equally messy finish. Second, applying caulk after painting might not provide proper insulation because the paint is underneath the caulk and doesn’t add the same protection as caulk. Third, if you caulk after painting, you'll see the caulk line, which can really detract from the look of your home.

Generally, any type of house paint, such as latex, acrylic, or mineral paint, will work for whitewashing. Paints with a matte or semi-gloss finish work best. If you have leftover white paint from another project, whitewashing can be a great way to use up paint that might have otherwise gone to waste. 

It’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’s best to replace them with new tiles, especially given how affordable they are. If you do paint your drop ceiling tiles, it’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.

Knockdown and orange peel are two popular types of drywall textures. There are a couple of key differences, but the main one is the application process. When creating an orange peel texture, you spray the material onto the drywall. With knockdown, the first step is to spray, stomp, or brush the material onto the drywall. Then, you drag a tool (like a knife or trowel) over the material to create unique designs.
