Tim Reed, owner and sole proprietor of No-Name Painter, has over 20 years of industry experience with painting and custom color mixing. He spent four years honing his painting application skills working for Ryan Enterprises, a real estate investment company in Mankato, MN. After setting the ground work, he focused on learning other aspects of the industry including ink and paint custom color mixing and electronic matching at C & C Special products, Bloomington, MN. He also learned other techniques such as adhesion to substrates including aluminum,steel, glass, wood, acrylic, stucco, concrete, cedar shake, cinder block, and others. In 2001 he worked for Midwest Industrial Coatings in Shakopee, MN where more time was spent learning about the longevity of various paint products for the golf, watercraft, snowmobile, and ATV industries. Now armed with a plethora of knowledge and experience, Tim is earning the trust and respect of the Rochester community one home at a time.

"We have hired Tim for several jobs. Most recently he repainted a bathroom and repaired/painted walls that had been damaged by a baby gate. In the past he painted our dining room including window trim, and some bedrooms. He is always meticulous, neat, and considerate. I highly recommend him and will definitely hire him when I need future paint jobs!"

Hardworking, honest, dedicated, and knowledgeable; this is what I expect from myself as a business owner and from my crew, and this is the promise I give to every one of my customers. I have been working in the carpentry, roofing, and construction trades for the last 12 years. I love what I do and it shows in every project I take on. Whether it's a small handyman job, a full basement finish, or putting a new roof on, I give my customers and their home the time and care needed to do the job right and make sure they have a great project experience. I offer free consultations and estimates and charge according to the job.

"Fantastic experience. Legacy Roofing was excellent - they were on schedule and the roofing crew was professional and efficient. They did a beautiful job of installing the high quality shingles with skill."

Painting questions, answered by experts

The number of paint coats you should apply varies by project, but many jobs call for two coats of paint. Make sure you let the first coat fully dry according to the manufacturer’s instructions before applying that second coat. Luckily, paint from a sprayer dries rather quickly due to the nature of the fine mist created by the sprayer.

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.

A professional painter will typically prep the walls to ensure a longer-lasting, smoother paint job. Prepping the walls can involve scraping off debris or flaked paint, filling in grooves or nail holes, sanding, cleaning, applying a coat of primer, taping the trim, and removing outlet covers. You should ask your painter before hiring about their process to make sure it’s in line with your expectations and needs.

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.

While it’s best to avoid exterior painting when it’s raining, you can still paint inside when the weather is wet. As long as the humidity and temperature inside your house are moderate enough to allow paint to dry properly and your room is properly ventilated, it’s perfectly fine to tackle an indoor painting project even if it’s raining cats and dogs outside.
