Should I paint my stairway or foyer before selling?

• <div><p>Painting your stairway or foyer before selling can make your home more appealing to prospective buyers. “Painting a foyer is a great way to maximize your home’s value,” says Tschudi. “Prospective buyers see fresh paint and clean and empty rooms as a palate and are more compelled to buy.”</p></div>

Q: Should I fill gaps before or after painting baseboards?

• <div><p>Always fill gaps before painting for the most professional results. Gap-filling materials such as caulk and wood filler require primer and paint to match surrounding surfaces, so addressing gaps during your painting project ensures consistent color and finish throughout the room.</p></div>

Q: What is the best color to paint a brick fireplace?

• <div><p>The best color to paint a brick fireplace comes down to personal taste. However, neutral colors&mdash;like white or gray&mdash;will open the space and create a bright modern look, making them popular options. However, choosing a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/overcoming-fear-color-home-decor.htm">bold color</a> can turn your fireplace into a feature piece that will be the talk of all family gatherings. </p></div>

Q: Can lacquer be used over any paint?

• <div><p>No. Lacquer cannot be used over oil-based paints, as it will not adhere properly to the paint. If you are using water-based paints, sometimes called latex paints, you can use lacquer over the paint. If you want to use lacquer on something covered in an oil-based paint, you must first strip the paint or prime the surface and paint over it with a latex-based paint. </p></div>

Q: Can I sleep in a room with low-VOC paint?

• <div><p>In many cases, you can sleep in a room painted with low-VOC paint on the same day you painted it. You&rsquo;ll want to give it at least 10 hours to allow any lingering chemicals to dissipate. However, it can still have an odor for about a day after painting, so you may want to add extra ventilation or adjust your sleeping arrangements if you&rsquo;re particularly sensitive. </p><p>No-VOC paint is generally odorless and won&rsquo;t emit toxic chemicals, so it&rsquo;s even safer and more comfortable to sleep near after a fresh paint job.</p></div>

"Carlos responded quickly, he came out the next day and followed up quickly with the estimate. He came back out to review the project before the team began, and actually moved up the timeline. I worked with Chanel to pick out colors, and each room turned out great. They worked on our living room, kitchen, primary bathroom, primary bedroom, half bath, and small hallway. There was at least one coat in all rooms in 2 full days of work, and the entire project including touch ups was completed in 3 hours on the final day. The team did a great job cleaning up, and the communication was great from start to finish. Will be happy to work with again in the future. "
