"BEWARE! Research before hiring, run by Mike (aka Elizabeth Lisa) Solimini—a master manipulator. Mike's superpower is lying. My 79-yo mother hired via Angi.com to fix falling block ceiling in ~200 sq ft cramped area. Day 1: $6,500 proposal for removal, drywall, new lighting; signed/paid full. Day 2: Mike claimed roof needed $10,500 ("fix leak / all drip edge"); signed/paid. Day 4: Kids fully realized issue, stopped payment on $17k checks, halted work, offered fair pay for verified efforts Mike insisted roof completed during night (38°F, steep slope). No ladders/workers seen, no sounds heard. Sent wrong property photos, no receipts for materials. Roofer w/ 27 years experience confirmed no work done. Attaching photo of drip edge Mike claimed to have repaired. OUTRIGHT FRAUD; Mike acts as victim over stopped checks (issued in good faith), threatened to put Mom in handcuffs/jail for "bad checks." Finalized by agreeing to a smaller amount for ceiling work paid via cashier's check."

"Were to prep walls and paint. Walls not sanded looked sloppy paint slopped on door frames. Did not follow directions where to paint had to buy another gallon to finish. Not a professional job at all would not reccommend to anyone."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

If you caulk after painting, a few things can happen that you definitely don't want to happen. For one, caulk is messy and can make for an equally messy finish. Second, applying caulk after painting might not provide proper insulation because the paint is underneath the caulk and doesn’t add the same protection as caulk. Third, if you caulk after painting, you'll see the caulk line, which can really detract from the look of your home.

For optimal results, sand the exterior of your home and apply a primer coat before painting. These steps will help the new paint stick to your home’s surface and will help the paint last longer. Pro tip: Some paint brands offer more expensive options that combine paint and primer into one product.

It’s important to wait until the drywall is completely dry before painting the wall. This can take up to 24 hours. If you paint while the drywall is still wet, the paint could bubble, peel, or have trouble sticking to the wall. To speed up the drying process, you can turn on a fan, run a dehumidifier, or open windows.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

Painting over wallpaper is an efficient way to cover it if it’s in decent shape. Before painting over wallpaper, make sure the surface is clean and smooth. You may have to remove minor problem areas, such as lifted seams or small peels, with a sheetrock knife or putty knife. Add a latex- or oil-based primer to keep moisture at bay before painting. You’ll likely need two coats of paint to cover the area.
