Can I use ceiling paint on walls?

• <div><p>While we can’t stop you, we don’t recommend using ceiling paint on walls. Ceiling paint is designed to be flat and less durable, which means it won’t stand up well to scrubbing or regular contact. It’s often limited in color selection. If you’re painting a low-traffic area, such as a closet, ceiling paint might work in an absolute pinch. But for most walls, it’s worth using a more durable, wall-specific formula. </p></div>

Q: Can I use ceiling paint on walls?

• <div><p>While we can&rsquo;t stop you, we don&rsquo;t recommend using ceiling paint on walls. Ceiling paint is designed to be flat and less durable, which means it won&rsquo;t stand up well to scrubbing or regular contact. It&rsquo;s often limited in color selection. If you&rsquo;re painting a low-traffic area, such as a closet, ceiling paint might work in an absolute pinch. But for most walls, it&rsquo;s worth using a more durable, wall-specific formula. </p></div>

Q: How long does a brick paint job last?

• <div><p>As with any exterior paint job, the average lifespan for painted brick is between 10 and 12 years. Your freshly coated bricks will have the longest lifespan with regular maintenance and cleaning. Keeping up with cleaning off dirt and mold will go a long way toward ensuring that your paint lives up to the manufacturer's specifications. </p></div>

Q: Is painting plaster different from painting drywall?

• <div><p>Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you&rsquo;ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.</p></div>

Q: What is the downside of painting brick?

• <div><p>While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.</p><p>Painting brick is porous, meaning it&rsquo;s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.</p><p>Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you&rsquo;ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it&rsquo;s hard to go back without some serious power washing&mdash;another added cost.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to roll or spray paint stucco?

• <div><p>When done correctly, a roller or paint sprayer can be used to paint stucco. Rolling paint works well on smaller projects, while a sprayer is more efficient for larger jobs. With some practice, a homeowner can rent an airless sprayer to paint stucco, but a larger job may be best done by a professional painter. Smaller areas are more manageable for the DIY homeowner.</p></div>

They did a good job. They were very accommodating to our needs, since they were painting the whole interior of our house while we were still staying there. They offered ideas when I needed them. They were very polite and professional.

Things overall went well. Did excellent tile work. Interior paint was good. Exterior paint looked good, but now that spring is here, I can see multiple areas where bubbles have formed or peeling because paint was laid atop unscrapped areas. Roof and gutters are excellent. There was a dispute...

The service was average. They did the job on time and pretty much within the budget. I thought they could have been more careful when painting inside the house. Their was some overspray of paint that got on the outlets as well.
