"I have had Northstar do two jobs. Exterior, they did my soffits last summer. This winter I had them back to do my bathroom. They are easy to work with, their prices are fair, and they get you on the schedule and get your painting done in a very reasonable time frame."

Painting questions, answered by experts

In most cases, paint primer is necessary before painting over wood paneling. A hardy primer formula covers up stains and leaves a grippy surface for the new paint to hold onto. If you don’t use a primer first, you risk poor adhesion, visible blemishes, and a paint top coat that could flake away later. 

There are two primer choices: oil-based or latex-based. Choose an oil-based primer for durability and adhesion, but prepare for extra dry time and more VOC (volatile organic compounds) fumes. Or, pick a stain-blocking latex primer. They’re easy to apply, clean up, and affordable.

While it may surprise you, the best time to paint the interior of your home is not during the warm open-window months, but rather during the late fall or even winter. This is because the cooler months offer ideal humidity conditions for painting. Lower humidity and cooler temperatures means faster drying time and better paint adhesion. 

Painting the exterior of your home is a moderate to advanced DIY project and requires certain tools, supplies, experience, and time. Due to the intricacies and time involved, exterior painting is usually best left to a pro, but can be tackled by an enthusiastic homeowner.

Yes, you can paint over old deck paint, but only if it’s in good condition and still adheres well to the deck. If the paint is flaking, cracking, or peeling, you need to sand it smooth before painting or your new paint will not adhere properly to the surface.

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.
