Q: How many coats of paint does a bathroom need?

• <div><p>Most bathroom walls will require two coats of paint, as this ensures proper coverage. If you&rsquo;re painting over a darker color with a lighter color, you may need additional coats. If you&rsquo;re just refreshing with the same shade, one coat of paint is usually fine. It&rsquo;s a good idea to put down one to two coats of primer before painting to ensure the best results. This can also cut down on the need for additional coats if you&rsquo;re painting over a darker color.</p></div>

Q: What color should I have my cabinets painted?

• <div><p>With so many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/kitchen-cabinet-colors.htm">color choices for cabinets</a>, you have many different ways to bring personality to your kitchen (or any other room where you are updating your cabinets). The color you choose to paint your cabinets should reflect your personal style but can also match existing wall colors or appliances. Some colors to choose from include:</p><ul><li><p>White</p></li><li><p>Navy</p></li><li><p>Grey</p></li><li><p>Green</p></li><li><p>Taupe</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What is the difference between knockdown and orange peel?

• <div><p>Knockdown and orange peel are two popular types of drywall textures. There are a couple of key differences, but the main one is the application process. When creating an orange peel texture, you spray the material onto the drywall. With knockdown, the first step is to spray, stomp, or brush the material onto the drywall. Then, you drag a tool (like a knife or trowel) over the material to create unique designs.</p></div>

Q: What is the best time of day to paint outside?

• <div><p>While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there&rsquo;s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.</p></div>

Q: Should bathroom ceiling paint be semi-gloss or satin?

• <div><p>Of the two sheens, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/satin-paint.htm">satin</a> is more resistant to moisture, whether it&rsquo;s from frequent cleaning or from the shower, and it dries quickly. However, if there are imperfections in the wall, they will be more obvious to the naked eye, so make sure to get the ceiling as smooth as you can before you start painting.</p></div>

The gutters look great! They worked with me to pick materials and help design where downspouts would go. The colors match both my home's trim and paint color on my house. Solid materials and excellent craftsmanship. I will be hiring this company again for any future work!

It didn't go well at all. After weeks of waiting, they painted the deck a hideous orange color. The later repainted it a color of my choosing, but the paint was so thick and orange that I couldn't go back to the natural look I wanted. I selected a tan color with a white rail, but the orange...
