"They were very punctual and polite. They were at my home 6 days at week on schedule. I totally trusted them in my home based on a referral. Diaz was very polite also even though he was not on the job very much. There were several items that were broken in my basement. With that being said, I did not have everything moved out before they began. I realize they are not a moving firm. Diaz did come and repair the items that were broken for the most part. A very expensive built in desk was deeply scratched, so now my warranty is invalid. The job itself was done very nice. I did have to call an electrician back to repair some of the outlets that I was told was wired incorrectly. I had to have an outlet moved that I was told that was not up to code. Also, the beams were not spaced properly. They were not either 12 or 18 inches apart. Some were 9 inches and others were 15 inches. Also, my steps were not replaced properly. I now have a small half step that was not there before the job. When I told him about the issue, he said they were put back exactly as they were. Everyone that came into the basement after the job was tripping which never happened within 30 years of me living in my home. The half step is not ideal but the steps were not installed properly. They did an excellent job with painting. The paint looks beautiful. I would hire them again to paint but not for major construction."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible with proper preparation and equipment, but a professional painter ensures smoother finishes, especially for intricate cabinetry.

They don’t have to be, but painting trim white when you have white walls can have many benefits. Often, the pairing makes rooms look larger and adds a ton of visual drama. It can also provide more of a blank slate to allow any of your wall decor to really stand out. However, there’s no “right” color choice for trim on white walls.

In many cases, you can sleep in a room painted with low-VOC paint on the same day you painted it. You’ll want to give it at least 10 hours to allow any lingering chemicals to dissipate. However, it can still have an odor for about a day after painting, so you may want to add extra ventilation or adjust your sleeping arrangements if you’re particularly sensitive. 

No-VOC paint is generally odorless and won’t emit toxic chemicals, so it’s even safer and more comfortable to sleep near after a fresh paint job.

A foam brush or paint pad is the best tool for painting behind a toilet, as it will ensure that you can wedge into the tight space between the wall and tank and it’s less likely to drip and cause a mess than a mini roller. A standard paintbrush is the best option for doing detail work around the pipes.

You can paint PVC baseboards. Lightly sand the surface to help the paint adhere, then apply a primer designed for plastics. Use high-quality latex paint for a smooth finish, and ensure the baseboards are clean and dry before starting for best results.
