"Edwin (aka Cappy} was hired to paint and provide carpentry service for my 1885 family home in Friendship, Maine. The home has been in the family for generations and is very special to us. Cappy and his crew scraped, primed and painted the main house as well as provided carpentry as needed. His crew resheathed, shingled and stained 3 outbuilding and repaired thresholds and trim on the same. the house is on an island so the logistics were complicated. Cappys crew accomplished all of the work in less than two weeks and the results exceeded my expectations. I will hire them again when needed, you should too."

"I signed a contract to have my roof replaced and have brickwork done. The roof was installed in January 2020. In August 2023, the interior ceiling had water stains. In December 2023, I received the following information from a roofing professional "i checked the whole roof over today. I removed and sealed 27 nails. The roofer did not install a single starter shingle anywhere on the roof. It looks like he made every installation mistake a roofer could make, from nail count, nail placement and nail depth to incorrect installation of the drip edge, the ice and water shield, and the flashings around the chimneys, skylights and the vent pipes. There are sections that should be ripped off and replaced immediately and there are sections that need to be tested with a garden hose. It's one of the worst roof jobs I've seen in 20 years. It's amateur hour up there. If you have the option to sue him, i would. The way he installed the roof is causing your siding and soffits to decay prematurely. The siding is all wet on the back side on the gable ends. I don't have anything positive to tell you about the roof. If there's a hurricane and your roofing blows off or leaks, the insurance company will most likely deny any claims if they see what i had to deal with this week." The roof was installed in January 2020 in 10-degree weather even though the contract specified that the work should be completed in November 2019. The property was littered with shingles and nails. I had to clean up the mess. Roserock did not do the brickwork per the terms of the contract because Roserock said the costs went up. I had to pay someone else to do the brickwork at a higher price. Numerous terms of the contract were breached."

"Work was done satisfactorily……workers were good and honest . Owner is a liar and fraudulent . Promises made and not kept . A three week project took 6 months to complete . And the whole scope of the project was never completed……..His cost of materials estimates were doubled and we were deceived throughout . Money added to all materials and labor costs way above the norm . Owner proved to be arrogant and untrustworthy . Unfortunately we trusted him and didn’t check into his dealings until it was too late . He denies any responsibility and has no transparency……..a very poor choice on our part . Don’t make the same mistake we did …….verify all charges and dealings with this man ."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

Like any paint, the magnetic type has a shelf life. Depending on the formula and manufacturer, the paint can last 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.

If your paint smells funky and is still lumpy after stirring, this is a sign it isn’t usable anymore.

If you’re looking for durability or outdoor use, opt for enamel paint. Enamel paint is typically oil- or lacquer-based, so it dries hard and it’s ideal for exposure to the elements. Latex paint is water-based and has more flexibility when it dries so it won’t hold up as well to changes in temperature or exposure to wind, sun, or rain.

The answer to whether you need to clean the walls before painting depends largely on the condition of the existing finish and your desired results. You can often get away with painting bedroom and living room walls with just a dusting and some high-quality paint. However, the best results come from doing all of the prep steps first, including a gentle cleaning.

Beginners can absolutely use a paint sprayer, but there is some technique involved, so you’ll have to spend some time learning how to use your sprayer. It’s a good idea to practice on a scrap surface before moving to your actual painting project to get used to using the sprayer. This can help avoid over spraying, which can lead to drips, bubbles, and other imperfections on your finished product.

Taking the time to properly prepare your tile backsplash before painting and treating it with care afterward is the best way to ensure its longevity. While the tile can last for the life of the home, you may have to repaint it after a few years. However, using only mild cleanser and water to keep it clean can maximize the paint's lifespan.
