Are textured walls harder to paint?

• <div><p>Yes, painting textured walls is harder than painting standard walls. All the uneven textures make it challenging to get adequate coverage and can leave you with small, bare sections if you’re not meticulous with your painting technique. Textured walls also often require a third paint coat to ensure total coverage, increasing the project time and cost.</p></div>

Is painting a pool deck a good idea?

• <div><p>If you have a smooth, already bonded concrete surface, painting a concrete pool deck can be a great way to brighten up the area and add longevity. If the surface has another covering or a different type of paint has been used previously, you won’t be able to paint it without removing the existing coating. Wooden decks benefit from painting as it helps to keep them watertight. Quality pool deck paints also help make the surface less slippery and less likely to gather mold and mildew or prematurely crack.</p></div>

Can I paint over old paint?

• <div><p>You’ll often have picture-perfect results by painting over the old color. However, if you’re transitioning from a dark wall color to a light one, you’ll want to use a primer first to save yourself from applying multiple coats for coverage. Also, if you’re moving from an <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-paints-latex-vs-acrylic.htm">oil-based paint</a> to a water-based one and vice versa, you’ll want to use a primer. Don’t forget to spackle over any holes or dents before adding your new paint color.</p></div>

Q: Can I paint over primer as soon as it dries?

• <div><p>Most primers should dry for 24 hours before painting over them, but some primers that are marketed as quick-drying may be paintable sooner. Check the manufacturer&rsquo;s instructions on your primer to find out how long you should let it dry before painting. </p></div>

Q: Do painting services include wall preparation?

• <div><p>Yes, many services include patching holes, sanding, and priming. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

This painter is highly undependable. He wasted 18months of my time by promising to come over and painting my house and after numerous I will be there and never showed up and never did the job and highly unrecommended this painter.

Amrou and his team did a great job on our old house. Amrou was the consummate professional. He communicated quite well, spelled out everything he was going to do in great detail and delivered on his word. I can't ask for much more. I highly recommend A.T.E. Painting.
