What is the best type of paint finish to use?

• <div><p>Paint comes in a variety of finishes. In most cases, a satin or semi-gloss sheen is a safe bet because it’s easy to wipe down and clean, while hiding scuffs and scratches. However, if you’re looking for a statement piece, consider using a high-gloss sheen to bring drama and light into the space. Keep in mind, while visually striking, higher sheens are more likely to show imperfections.</p></div>

Q: Can I do this myself?

• <div><p>Phone jack installation can be a complicated project that requires cutting holes into just the right location in the wall and running delicate wiring. This sort of job is best left to the professionals. </p></div>

Q: Will house painters expect a tip?

• <div><p>While painters won&rsquo;t expect a tip, they may accept one if you offer&mdash;which means any amount of tipping you do is above and beyond, even if it&rsquo;s just $10 or $20 per painter. Instead of monetary tips, many painters prefer their customers to leave them positive online reviews, which can line their pockets in the form of future business opportunities.</p></div>

Q: How many coats of paint do you use with a spray gun?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-many-coats-paint-does-my-house-need.htm">number of paint coats you should apply</a> varies by project, but many jobs call for two coats of paint. Make sure you let the first coat fully dry according to the manufacturer&rsquo;s instructions before applying that second coat. Luckily, paint from a sprayer dries rather quickly due to the nature of the fine mist created by the sprayer.</p></div>

Q: Can you just paint over cabinets?

• <div><p>You can paint over wood, wood-laminate, and metal cabinets, but you need to prepare the surface first. Plastic laminate cabinets and thin veneers may accept a layer of paint depending on their condition, but they require special techniques and paints. If your cabinets sag or have significant damage, it may be a better investment to replace your cabinets than paint over them.</p></div>

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.
