Can I sleep in a freshly painted room?

• <div><p>It’s best to avoid sleeping in a freshly painted room for 24 to 72 hours, depending on ventilation and the level of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the paint. If you’re using a low- to no-VOC paint in a room with good ventilation, it’s generally safe to sleep in the room once the paint is dry. For other kinds of paint, give the VOCs a few days to dissipate before sleeping in the room.</p></div>

Q: Can I sleep in a freshly painted room?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to avoid sleeping in a freshly painted room for 24 to 72 hours, depending on ventilation and the level of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the paint. If you&rsquo;re using a low- to no-VOC paint in a room with good ventilation, it&rsquo;s generally safe to sleep in the room once the paint is dry. For other kinds of paint, give the VOCs a few days to dissipate before sleeping in the room.</p></div>

Q: Should I paint before refinishing wood steps?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/refinishing-wood-steps.htm">Refinishing wood steps</a> before painting the surrounding walls or trim is the best option. Sanding stair treads creates fine dust that can settle on freshly painted surfaces and interfere with adhesion. Plus, refinishing involves heavy foot traffic, equipment, and potential splashes from stain or sealant, which can damage new paint. By tackling the stairs first, you reduce the risk of damaging painted walls and can more easily tape off and protect surfaces during painting.</p></div>

Q: What are Neoclassical colors?

• <div><p>Neoclassical architecture is all about simplicity and balance without losing the drama of its style. White, gray, cream, and other soft pastels are common. Many homeowners choose a deep natural hue for a pop of color, such as jewel tones or black accents. Modern neoclassical architecture also incorporates brick facades, bringing red into the color scheme.</p></div>

Q: How do you paint behind a toilet?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-paint-behind-toilet.htm">Painting behind a toilet</a> requires extra attention and care, as the area is often tight and uncomfortable to reach. First, you should use painter's tape to seal off any areas that you don&rsquo;t want to get paint on, and use a drop cloth on the floor. Then, use a small roller brush or foam brush to apply the paint, making sure to spread it evenly around corners and tight areas. For the best results, allow the paint to dry in between coats. Finally, after you have finished painting and allowed your work to dry completely, remove the painter&rsquo;s tape carefully.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to paint stairs with a brush or roller?

• <div><p>While painting your stair's railing is a job for a small collection of various brush sizes, painting the stairs portion of a stairwell with a roller is a matter of personal preference. You can find two-, four-, and six-inch rollers at home centers and hardware stores, which can be excellent for painting treads and risers. However, you'll still need at least one brush to cut in the details and edges. </p></div>

"Scott and Brian were clear and honest about expectations, and their price was very reasonable for a big project (painting my 110-year-old 3-story home). Our house was completed on time and the painters and the crew were respectful and thoughtful of all the scrapping and prepping my old house took to complete. I highly recommend them!"
