How much do painters charge per hour?

• <div><p>Professional painters charge <b>$20 to $50 per hour</b>, on average. Hourly rate cost factors include the complexity of the paint job, the type of paint, the height of the walls and ceiling, and the type of prep and repairs needed. For example, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-remove-wallpaper.htm">removing wallpaper costs</a> an additional $3 per square foot because it can be very time consuming and labor intensive. Your location will also impact the hour rate.</p></div>

Q: How long does magnetic paint last?

• <div><p>Like any paint, the magnetic type has a shelf life. Depending on the formula and manufacturer, the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-paint-last.htm">paint can last</a> between 12 months and 5 years for an unopened can. But even magnetic paint with a five-year shelf life can go bad sooner, depending on the storage location and temperature. Opening the tin and improperly resealing it also expedites expiration.</p><p>If your paint smells funky and is still lumpy after stirring, this is a sign it isn&rsquo;t usable anymore.</p></div>

Q: What is the fastest way to paint a room?

• <div><p>Consider skipping the primer if possible; it's only necessary if you need to cover something up, such as a stain or a porous surface, or if you want to switch from a dark color to a light one. If you have a steady hand and are a precise painter, you may want to consider skipping the painter&rsquo;s tape. Instead, carry a damp rag with you as you paint to quickly wipe away any mistakes.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to paint a house?

• <div><p>The length of time it takes to paint a house will depend on whether you&rsquo;re doing it yourself or hiring a pro, and the time of year in which you&rsquo;re planning to do it. A professional paint company can likely complete the job within three to four days, but they may need more time to account for bad weather. By contrast, it may take a week or more when opting to DIY. </p></div>

Q: Is satin too shiny for walls?

• <div><p>Unlike high or semi-gloss paint finishes, which can create an excessively reflective effect in indoor spaces, the sheen in satin is understated and right at home on interior walls. If, on the other hand, you don&rsquo;t want any level of shine at all, consider opting for a flat paint or another similarly sheenless alternative like matte. </p></div>

We removed the carpet on the 2nd and third floors in an 1870s house and found the hardwood in a variety of conditions, some with paints, a few bad spots etc. Don took them all back to their original beauty. The difference is amazing and it adds incredible value to the house. We highly recommend...

They were very professional and did a great job. They even cleaned the windows on an interior door leading to a mud room. I was very impressed at the speed they worked to complete the job. Excellent!!
