"We had previously hired Paz Painting to remove popcorn from the ceilings in 2 rooms and hired his crew again to do the same in our dining and living rooms, an entryway and the upstairs stairwell ceiling. They also painted several rooms. They did a great job in both regards and did a nice job of cleaning up when done. Narciso is easy to work with and I would definitely hire his company again."

We were established in 2006 through a lot of sweat, tears and 80-hour work weeks, like most small businesses. I left my cushy upper management job in corporate to take over the great business my wife had started. She had decided to make our home a happier place by learning to paint faux finishes through our home like marbled ceilings and a brick painted patio. Then the neighbors wanted them, their friends and so forth. The name "Express Yourself Paint" came from customer's expressing their unique character through faux finishes. We started out in an eight-foot utility trailer with the forty-foot ladders hanging out to infinity with red flags tied to them and a used spray gun. We looked more like the Red Neck Painters of Raleigh. Thanks to all those trusting souls who allowed us to paint for them in those early days! We came from humble beginnings, but we wanted to create a different kind of painting company. A company that is high performance, uses modern technology for communicating and scheduling making for a more satisfied customer experience while still applying paint the old fashion way...brushes, rollers and sprayers. Our desire to be different has resulted in us becoming the largest and most successful repaint company in the Triangle. All that said, we still trip over our own feet sometimes and as of yet have not discovered how to be perfect. Give us a try and we will most definitely put our best foot forward for you. We can't leave the light on for you because we are at your home painting, but we will definitely bring all the paint and the fixings. Our sincere wish for you is to experience, "The Power of Paint!"

"Highly recommend and would hire again! Angela and the Make it Happen team was the first to respond to my Anji request, the first to come and assess my framing and insulation needs, and the only one I had to hire to complete my entire project. Angela has a large team with multiple levels of expertise. I started with framing and insulation because, to be honest, I had just been ghosted by another contractor mid-project and was trying to wrap my head around a way forward. The Make it Happen team did such an amazing, professional job -- and literally started the day after we hired them -- that I asked if they had time to help me with the rest. They said yes and literally made it happen. From that day on they worked at my house daily until it was done. They did drywall, doors, windows, paint, trim, floors, stairs, and appliance install. They showed up on time, stayed until done, cleaned up daily, answered all calls, were at all inspections, and priced fairly. So grateful! Highly recommend!"

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

The answer depends on the garage door itself. If your garage door is flat, a roller is the fastest and easiest way to paint it. A combination of brushes and rollers is best for garage doors with designs or textures. The brush allows you to thoroughly paint all the grooves and angles while the roller speeds up the process on large, flat areas. 

This depends on the size and design of your door. If your door is on the smaller side and features some unique design elements, go with a brush to ensure you get in those hard-to-reach crevices without painting outside the lines. If you’re painting a large door, like a double door or garage door, and the panels are flat, go with a roller to get the job done quickly. 

Keeping extreme temperature or humidity under control, gentle cleaning, and inspection ensure pieces remain preserved and visually impactful over time.

With patience, you can often save a dried paintbrush. Soak the bristles overnight and clean the brush as you would any other time. You'll likely have to repeat the cleaning steps, including soaking, more than once.

The time it takes to prep and paint a room depends wholly on the project's details. You can expect to spend at least two days on the job, including one for prepping and priming and one for applying two coats of paint. If the room is complex with many features to work around, expect to spend an additional day.
