Reilly’s Handyman Services are a third-generation, father-and-son, family-owned business. We registered our business with Wake County in 2004, have city licenses and have $1M of project insurance. We understand how difficult it can be to find a contractor that provides you with high-quality craftsmanship and affordable prices without sacrificing quality. That’s why we provide our customers with honest, professional and reliable services for their home improvement and renovation needs. We have developed a reputation for handling any size project efficiently and quickly for residential properties. Our goals over the years have always been to provide customers with exceptional services focused on their individual needs. 10 employees. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. Family owned.

"I chose Reilly because of the many great reviews on Angi—and here’s mine: trust this team. They were thorough, professional, and highly skilled. They completed a full tear-down and rebuild of my deck, and it looks fantastic. The price was also competitive, which I truly appreciated. As a widow, I’ve sometimes been treated differently during home projects—but that was absolutely not the case here. Every member of the Reilly team treated me with honesty, respect, and professionalism. I felt completely comfortable throughout the entire process. I’ll definitely use Reilly again and highly recommend them."

We stay current on the latest painting techniques, surface prep standards, and product innovations from leading brands like Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore. Our services include exterior painting, interior painting, pressure washing, deck and dock staining, ceiling stipple removal, and cabinet refinishing.

"I found Richard's Painting an excellent company to work with. From beginning to end with Adam quoting the job and both the owner, Margaret, and her painting contractor, Javier, everyone was committed to provide the best results possible. They met their committed start date, arrived on-time each day, worked entire days, devoted all of their time being dedicated onsite to the job, completed the work within the expected timeframe, and provided quality results. In addition, Margaret extended her service to complete additional staining that wasn't part of the original quote which I greatly appreciated. Without question, I would hire Richard's Painting again."

"Kellyn and her team did an incredible job from beginning to end. As part of preparing to sell my house, I contacted Kellyn and she was at my house within a couple of days to do a walkthrough and give me an estimate. She was able to paint the entire interior of my house in less than a week and was able to start exactly when I needed her to. The house looks amazing and I have no doubt the fresh look will help sell my house faster! "

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

Metal is finicky, particularly when exposed to the elements. In other words, you should always prime your metal garage door before laying down paint. Primer not only helps the paint stick to the metal, but it also prevents rust from bleeding through. If you already have some rust and want to avoid it peeking out, cover the spots with a zinc chromate primer. 

You should repaint the interior of your house every 2 to 7 years, depending on which room needs repainting and how it's used.  High-traffic areas like hallways, kitchens, and bathrooms need more frequent repainting—typically every 2 or 3 years. Living rooms and dining rooms, which you may use less frequently, can go as long as 5 to 7 years or even longer before they need to be repainted.

The best time to paint indoors is typically in winter. When the weather is colder outside, you receive reasonable temperatures and humidity levels inside your heated home. You’ll have better paint adhesion when humidity is at average levels or below. To avoid higher-than-average humidity, avoid repainting indoors on winter days when it’s raining or snowing outside.

Many experts say to rely exclusively on semi-gloss when painting crown molding, as it imparts some shine and texture to the molding. Additionally, it’s more durable and long-lasting than flat paint. However, not everyone wants the added shine that semi-gloss paint provides, as it calls attention to imperfections in the wall. Flat paint offers a subtle and classic look, which is the right choice for many homeowners.

If the tiles are undamaged and in good condition, painting can be a safe method of encapsulating them, but it is important first to evaluate the state of the tiles before proceeding. If the tiles are deteriorating, damaged, or already loose, simply painting over them fails to address the underlying issues that can cause asbestos exposure. It is recommended to consult asbestos abatement experts in such situations to identify the best way to safely manage or remove the asbestos-containing materials. During the painting process, it is crucial to adhere to safety regulations and guidelines to reduce the potential health risks associated with asbestos exposure.
