"Job was started in the fall of 2017. It became to cold to work with siding, I was told that he would finish the job first thing in the spring of 2018. Spring came and went, summer came and went, here we are in the fall again. Finally showed up to finish the job on the third promised day. The quality of work done is appalling. crooked, cracked and broken siding, even a nail driven through the face of the siding. A ten year old could have done better. I wouldn't hire this idiot to dig a ditch"

Painting questions, answered by experts

You can test to see if your mist coat has worked by using masking tape after the drying period. Apply masking tape to an inconspicuous area of the wall after the mist coat has had at least 24 hours to dry. Then, peel off the tape. It should come up clear, with no paint residue. If it does have paint residue, you may need to remove the mist coat and try coating the plaster again with a different ratio of paint and water.

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.

Many painters determine prices for home painting jobs using a base rate per square foot. Others use square footage to estimate the amount of paint required and charge a multiple of the material cost, and some may estimate the time required and factor that in. In some cases, painters may simply offer to beat the lowest local quote you've received.

How long your paint job lasts depends on the quality of the work and the type of paint used. If you clean the siding first, apply a primer if needed, and choose the right type of paint, the finish can last five to 10 years.

You can use either paint thinner or mineral spirits to clean paint brushes, but both have distinct advantages. Paint thinners are better solvents, making them a good option if you need to clean your brushes quickly or if you are dealing with dried paint, which mineral spirits can’t remove. On the other hand, mineral spirits have less toxicity, less odor, and lower volatility. It is safer to use indoors and doesn’t evaporate as quickly if you need to leave the brushes to soak.
