Q: Can you paint drop ceiling tiles?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to paint certain drop ceiling tiles, including those made of plastic, metal, and wood. Painting fiberboard ceiling tiles is technically possible, but the results rarely look appealing, so it&rsquo;s best to replace them with new tiles, especially given how affordable they are. If you do paint your drop ceiling tiles, it&rsquo;s a good idea to use a paint sprayer and a rapidly-drying paint to avoid drips. Latex paint is often a good choice, especially if you thin it and apply it using a sprayer.</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: Should crown molding be painted flat or semi-gloss?

• <div><p>Many experts say to rely exclusively on semi-gloss when painting crown molding, as it imparts some shine and texture to the molding. Additionally, it&rsquo;s more durable and long-lasting than flat paint. However, not everyone wants the added shine that semi-gloss paint provides, as it calls attention to imperfections in the wall. Flat paint offers a subtle and classic look, which is the right choice for many homeowners. </p></div>

Q: Is it bad to paint over wallpaper?

• <div><p>You can paint over wallpaper, but it&rsquo;s not usually recommended, especially if the wallpaper underneath is textured or dirty. If you do decide to paint your wallpaper, make sure it&rsquo;s in good condition and clean it very well. Make sure all corners and edges of wallpaper are glued down before you paint, as well.</p></div>

I highly recommend the Johnston team. They painted our exterior stucco home timely and efficiently, and we are highly satisfied. The management team were pleasant to communicate with, and were very understanding and flexible with some last minute requests.

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.
