House beautiful, with New England residential master house painter, Brett William. Hi. My name is Brett and I love to change up environments through color. I love to make you feel at home. I love the new energy and mood that comes from a fresh coat. I’m an interior + exterior house painter (schooled in graphic design & color theory) with over 25 years experience based in Western Massachusetts & Southern NH. I work with a wide variety of professional products and am excited about the rise of eco-friendly low-to-no VOC based paints. I maintain a small crew, and often for interior work, it’s just myself or on occasion a few other professionals I know and trust. I’m not in the volume painting game. I like attention and care from a craft focus. The best way to see if I’m a good fit for your project is to contact me. We can share some images, talk colors, and get a general feeling for what you’re looking to do. If it makes sense, we can then set up a time for me to come take a look at the details and provide a solid estimate. Depending on the project, I serve most of southern NH, VT, and western / central MA but have been known to settle in for a length of time for the right project anywhere in New England. I look forward to meeting you. Brett

"Brett did an absolutely fantastic job on 3 interior rooms of my house. One thing that I find really separates him from the pack his his commitment to quality. He takes pride in his work and it really shows in the finished product. In addition to great workmanship, his demeanor is pleasant and he is extremely courteous which goes a long way when someone is working in your living space. I’d hire again. 10 out of 10."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

In most cases, paint primer is necessary before painting over wood paneling. A hardy primer formula covers up stains and leaves a grippy surface for the new paint to hold onto. If you don’t use a primer first, you risk poor adhesion, visible blemishes, and a paint top coat that could flake away later. 

There are two primer choices: oil-based or latex-based. Choose an oil-based primer for durability and adhesion, but prepare for extra dry time and more VOC (volatile organic compounds) fumes. Or, pick a stain-blocking latex primer. They’re easy to apply, clean up, and affordable.

You can paint over drywall mud about 24 hours after application, but the exact timing depends on factors like humidity, temperature, and the thickness of the mud. For the best results, ensure the mud is completely dry to the touch and has changed from a darker gray to a lighter, chalky white. Don’t forget to sand and prime the drywall surface before you paint to create a smooth, even finish.

It’s a matter of personal preference on whether you want to tip the crew or the lead painter. You can tip the crew as a whole, just the lead painter, or each individual painter. Do what feels right in the context of the job.

Black paint absorbs light, so using black paint will cause your room to look darker overall. In addition to reducing ambient light, black paint can make your space feel smaller because it hides depth and contours. The other major drawback is that black paint is harder to paint over with a lighter color. You’ll need to fully prime your wall with a good quality primer and use at least two coats of paint to get back to a lighter color after it’s been painted black.

You should use either a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio of paint to paint thinner in most cases. The amount of paint should always be higher than the amount of paint thinner.
