My name is Kevin Granahan. I'm a painting and wallpapering contractor for residential and commercial projects in Manhattan, The Bronx, Queens & Brooklyn. I bring over 20+ yrs experience, offering professional,neat, meticulous work at reasonable rates. We pride ourselves on treating each project, from estimate to completion, as if it were our own.

"I hired Shamrock Painting & Wallpapering to paint my apartment before I put it up for sale. Kevin, the owner, did a great job for a reasonable price, and within our agreed-upon timeframe. He was able to deal with cracks and other cosmetic defects that had developed in the walls over the years I'd lived there, and the walls were in perfect condition by the time he was done. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again, and would recommend him to anyone who was looking for a painter."

"Was given a very specific contract and on the first day of work, changed the scope of work to a large extent that could have definitely been done before bidding. It was not something that revealed itself. Skim-coat was good. Painting was only fair. Left sporadic plaster and paint on floors. "

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

You don’t have to sand between primer coats. However, if you’d like, you may lightly sand your last coat to ensure a smooth surface before you apply the paint color.

If you’re repainting with the same sheen, it’s possible to apply satin paint over satin. However, if you’re reducing the glossiness and using a flatter paint, you should sand first to take off some of the sheen. Sanding will also help the next coat of paint stick to the wall better, so it’s a good idea, even if you’re not changing the sheen.

If you have a can or two of paint that's past its prime, replacing it shouldn't be too expensive. A gallon of paint costs an average of $25. You may pay more if you want a superior quality paint or if you choose oil-based paint instead of latex or acrylic. 

Buying in bulk can help you save, provided you use all the paint you purchase. For example, a 5-gallon bucket of paint tends to cost less per gallon than a pint or quart-sized can.

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.

Stucco is an easy material to paint over, and a fresh coat of paint can give it a new life in a few simple steps. Just ensure the wall is in good condition, and clean the existing stucco before you get started—along with filling in any minor cracks or gaps. Well-maintained stucco should take in the new paint quite well.
