Q: What kind of paint do you use to whitewash brick?

• <div><p>When it comes to painting your bricks, you&rsquo;ve got a few options. Traditionally, lime wash (a mix of aged, burned, and crushed lime and water) was used to whitewash brick or stone. You can also find premixed brick whitewash paint that cuts out a few steps and lets you get started faster. However, for the best results, we recommend using a DIY whitewash (white acrylic paint mixed with water).</p></div>

Q: How many coats of paint should a wall have?

• <div><p>Typically, professionals recommend two coats of paint for even coverage. However, you may be able to get away with one coat if you&rsquo;re painting over a light color with a darker or similar-shade color. But if you&rsquo;re going from a darker to a lighter color, like white to black, you may need up to three coats. </p><p>If you&rsquo;re going from a darker to a lighter color, like white to black, you may need up to three coats. Buying high-quality paint and using primer on the walls beforehand can save you the extra labor and cost that comes with adding more coats of paint. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to paint the exterior of a house?

• <div><p>It takes three to four days on average for a team of two to three painters to paint an average-sized (three-to-four-bedroom) house. Larger homes, such as three-story homes and five-bedroom homes, can take two to three painters around five to six days to paint. Your contractor can provide the most accurate estimated timeline for the project. </p></div>

Q: What colors suit the farmhouse style?

• <div><p>The farmhouse style is all about creating a warm and inviting space that&rsquo;s relaxing and connects to nature, so natural, muted colors are best. Feel free to bring in whites, creams, grays, and light browns for wall colors. For flooring, opt for natural wood colors or darker wood stains. Choose raw materials like undyed cotton, burlap, and wool for linens, pillows, and blankets.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between knockdown and orange peel?

• <div><p>Knockdown and orange peel are two popular types of drywall textures. There are a couple of key differences, but the main one is the application process. When creating an orange peel texture, you spray the material onto the drywall. With knockdown, the first step is to spray, stomp, or brush the material onto the drywall. Then, you drag a tool (like a knife or trowel) over the material to create unique designs.</p></div>

I had to *ask* him to come back to clean the paint off of my hundred-year-old woodwork (because he failed to properly prep) and then he used a screwdriver (?!?!) to do so, which left gouging in the wood. It was not in pristine condition, but it did not have any chunks out of it until he got...
