Q: Can you paint over paneling without sanding?

• <div><p>It's possible to paint over paneling without sanding if you use a primer that masks defects and provides a strong base layer for the final coat of paint to adhere to. If you have solid wood paneling, it's helpful to sand it lightly so your primer and paint stick. But, if your paneling has a faux veneer, skip the sanding because you&rsquo;ll remove a layer and expose the pressed board underneath.</p></div>

Q: Is painted brick hard to maintain?

• <div><p>There are several <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-pros-and-cons-brick-homes.htm">pros and cons to brick houses</a>, including the fact that painted brick requires more maintenance than bare brick. For one, you need to repaint the surface every 10 or so years. This is a costly and time-consuming process that requires sanding, scraping, washing, and a new coat of paint. You also need to touch up the paint if it chips or fades. Unpainted brick, on the other hand, may need cleaning periodically, but you won&rsquo;t need to go to the same levels you would for painted brick.</p></div>

Q: Can you German smear over painted brick?

• <div><p>A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance&mdash;so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.</p></div>

Q: Should bathroom ceiling paint be semi-gloss or satin?

• <div><p>Of the two sheens, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/satin-paint.htm">satin</a> is more resistant to moisture, whether it&rsquo;s from frequent cleaning or from the shower, and it dries quickly. However, if there are imperfections in the wall, they will be more obvious to the naked eye, so make sure to get the ceiling as smooth as you can before you start painting.</p></div>

Q: Is paint bad if it has bubbles?

• <div><p>Paint itself isn&rsquo;t necessarily bad if you see bubbles, but bubbling signals a problem with how the paint is adhering to the surface. Left unaddressed, these bubbles can burst and cause peeling or flaking, which compromises the appearance and durability of the finish. In some cases, bubbling can reveal deeper issues like moisture damage or surface contamination. If bubbles form during application, fix the underlying cause before repainting for a lasting, smooth result.</p></div>

This firm was outstanding to deal with. Very professional staff and what they promised they did. Even came back to touch up after it rained that night and some of the paint did not dry so it washed off. Came back as promised and finished the job. Highly recommend.

"Slower than expected; due to rain and storms. Normally a crew of 4 experienced painters showed up at 9 am and often stayed until 5:30 or 6 pm. They laid tarps everywhere and were respectful to our neighbors. Excellent detail and trim work. They stored all equipment and replaced deck furniture daily. Excellent crew. Quiet and efficient."
