Toppainting and plastering inc, we already have over 15 years of experience at painting , decorating and bathroom renovation I worked for 5 years in London,and my last 10 years in Massachusetts and South Carolina, What made us move to this beautiful city SC is the lack of qualified labor and qualified professionals and that is why we are here to deliver the best to each client. where we paint a house with a high finish and quality. I have a team of professional painters who all work under my supervision so that together with my crew we can offer guaranteed quality work. I would like to explain a little about the way we do exterior and interior painting. Pressure Wash Exterior JoMaxx, Bleach, Water, TSP, and AJAX. This solution is made to kill mold and mildew. Cleaning with bleach alone only dyes the mold and mildew and then forces the spore further into the surface. The addition of TSP helps remove oxidation and ensure a strong bond between the surface and the base coat. The addition of soap helps the chemical mix stick to the sides, allowing it to be the muscle that works the surface and allows for an easy lower pressure rinse. My method of extensive prep start with proper cleaning. Trench Perimeter and protect surrounding areas, as needed with plastic and/or tarps. Paper may be used on concrete walkways. Wire brush rusty and/or exposed nail heads, both in the siding and trim/trim accents. Set the nail. Spot prime each set nail with Rust Inhibitive Oil Primer, twice. This will encapsulate the surface rust and not allow it to continue the corrosion process. Repair the set hole. Repairs should be made with exterior grade spackling compound or wood filler. Sand repairs until smooth. Spot prime said repairs with an exterior grade multi surface primer. All of our internal work is done with festool machine, so that we minimize as much dust às possible and we like working with festool for the quality and finish these machines give to us

"Alex and Cleo did a great job. Thoroughly prepped, primed and painted (2 coats) walls and ceiling. Completed in one day including clean-up. Excellent quality at a reasonable price. Would definitely rehire Alex and team for any painting project and probably anything else he would agree to do!"

Our business offers Interior & Exterior Painting, our prices will depend on the clients budget and how much work the clients is giving us. I’ve been working in Painting for 13 years, with my partner, she makes sure the area I’m working with it’s clean for the client, and will make sure the area it’s clean after I’m done working.

"Good communication, did what he said he would do, worked diligently wasting no time, and the work quality was very good. His team was careful to protect floors, furniture, and fixtures from paint and dust and cleaned up well each day. They were the neatest housepainters I have ever hired. I am going to hire them again for more painting that I need done in the near future."

Painting questions, answered by experts

If you decide to paint over wallpaper, it’s important to prep the surface with an oil- or shellac-based primer. This helps prevent moisture from creating bubbles loosening the adhesive. Plus, a primer helps paint attach to the wall smoothly and securely. Use quality oil-based or latex paint to cover the wallpaper. Be prepared to cover the wallpaper with two coats for maximum coverage.

Although plastic-sealed paint cans can look tricky, you can open them with adjustable pliers in no time. Grip the plastic seal with the pliers and pull the seal up, moving around the seal until you’ve pried the plastic up in enough spots. Then, you can grab the seal and pop it off the top of the paint can. Depending on the strength of the seal, you may even be able to remove the seal with just your hands by pulling upwards.

A finishing layer is an important step in the staining process. A top coat helps make a stain last longer by protecting it from spills, scratches, and natural weathering.

A lacquer finish is thin, fast-drying, and best used for cabinets, molding, and trim. It’s not recommended for outdoor furniture. Another option is varnish, which has a glossy finish with a protective film and is often used on outdoor wood objects. Polyurethane, known as “liquid plastic,” dries quickly but doesn’t hold up well in the heat. Lastly, a shellac finish adds a warm tint to wood but is affected by heat.

Painted shingles will last between four and seven years; after that point, you’ll need to paint them again and restart the process of having your roof inspected, replacing any damaged shingles, and so on. These inspections and repairs play a crucial role in extending the overall durability of your roof.

You can clean water-based paint from brushes in the sink and allow the waste water to go down the drain. However, one tip to remember during a painting project is that it's illegal to allow oil-based paint or its cleaning solutions, even organic ones, down the drain and into the sewer system.
