Q: Can I hang artwork or shelves myself?

• <div><p>Yes, but professional services ensure secure installation, accurate leveling, and protection against wall damage, especially for heavy or valuable items.</p></div>

Q: When should you remove painters tape after caulking?

• <div><p>If you are caulking, painter&rsquo;s tape should be removed before the caulk starts to set. It only takes 30 to 60 minutes for the caulk to dry, so this should be done fairly quickly.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint vinyl siding?

• <div><p>Yes, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-you-paint-vinyl-siding.htm">you can paint vinyl siding</a>. A fresh coat of paint gives your home an updated look without the expense of replacing vinyl siding. For the best results, look for paint with acrylic and urethane resins, as these materials adapt to the vinyl&rsquo;s expansion and contraction in different weather conditions. Use a color that&rsquo;s the same as or lighter than the vinyl siding&rsquo;s current color, as dark colors tend to absorb too much heat, which can lead to warped or buckled vinyl.</p></div>

Q: Should I prime over old exterior paint?

• <div><p>Priming over old exterior paint is fine if the original paint is not cracked, chipped, and peeling. When that is the case, you need to scrape it off and sand first. Primer improves adhesion, seals stains, and provides a consistent base for the new paint. It also enhances the paint's durability and helps achieve a more uniform finish. </p></div>

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...
