Q: Is it OK to paint over old wallpaper?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/painting-over-wallpaper-its-possible.htm">paint over wallpaper</a> if it&rsquo;s smooth and in good shape. But if there are bumps or tears in the wallpaper, they&rsquo;ll likely show through the paint. Similarly, you should avoid painting over textured wallpaper because the ridges and patterns in the paper will be visible. In either of these situations, you should remove the wallpaper before painting.</p></div>

Q: What is the best type of paint to use for whitewash?

• <div><p>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. </p><p> </p></div>

Q: Is it better to use two or three coats of paint for exteriors?

• <div><p>Use at least two coats of paint for exteriors for better coverage and added durability. When painting lighter colors over darker colors, a third coat of paint may be necessary to achieve full coverage of your home&rsquo;s exterior. A durable paint specifically designed for the material of your home&rsquo;s exterior will last the longest.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to paint over dirty walls?

• <div><p>Dirty or not, you should always <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-walls.htm">clean the wall</a> beforehand. Even if the wall looks sparkling clean to the naked eye, it&rsquo;s good practice to wipe it down with a damp rag and mild detergent. Leftover dirt, dust, and residue can create unsightly textures or interfere with the paint&rsquo;s adherence to the wall. You&rsquo;ll never regret cleaning it, but you might regret skipping this step.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint a room in one day?

• <div><p>If you have the room prepped and ready to paint first thing in the morning, you may be able to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-paint-room.htm">paint a room</a> in one day. Spackling, patching, and priming require time to dry before painting, so those steps will likely take you beyond the span of a workday. If you count the time it takes to prep, prime (if needed), and paint, the project will likely take a couple of days.</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!!

They responded promptly and cleaned up well but the drywall work they did was noticeable in some places and they forgot to sand before they painted so I had them come back and re-do those areas, which they did. I am a property manager so I wanted it right for my clients. I would recommend them...
