"Lesson learned. You get what you pay for. Deveto (Veto), quoted me a two-day job starting on a Wednesday and ending on Thursday. Unfortunately he was late the first day by half an hour and did not return until the following Saturday. This was after several days of my husband continuously contacting him. The first day he advised us that he would fix a few cracks and taping off the area, which would only take a few hours. Instead he actually worked for approximately 9 hours. This would not have been an issue had I known before hand. He did a good job protecting the woodwork in my home however, the actual painting was very sloppy and rushed. Unfortunately there was only one coat of paint applied and it showed. Veto lacks communication skills and seems to have little to no respect for others time. I would definitely NOT recommend hiring this company for any future work!"

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

You should always use a primer before painting over wallpaper to help the paint adhere correctly and get a good finish. Not all wallpaper can be painted over, so do a test patch in an inconspicuous area before painting an entire wall. If the primer and paint don’t adhere, you’ll need to remove the wallpaper, prime the wall, and then paint.

The main difference between limewash and paint is their chemical makeup and ingredients. Limewash is made from lime and water, which is more breathable than the ingredients in paint, which is made from a combination of plastic, acrylic, or latex. Because of these ingredients, limewash is more transparent than paint; it also only appears as white, while paint can be mixed into an endless number of different colors and shades.

For larger areas, like painting walls, a roller is the best option for applying eggshell paint. Rollers are made to hold more paint and spread it evenly and efficiently over your wall. A roller will be faster and give you a more even coat than a brush for painting walls and ceilings, and it will avoid the visible texture you’d get from brushstrokes for a clean finish. For smaller areas, like trim, a brush will work so long as you remember to paint with the grain of the wood.

Yes, cinder blocks must be primed before painting. Without primer, your paint won't stick to the surface of the blocks. You should use a bonding and filling primer which fills all of the small pores of your blocks. Once the primer dries, you'll have a smoother surface to work with and your paint will stick easily to the blocks.

Enamel paint is typically an oil-based paint, but some options on the market are water-based. Water-based enamel paints tend to dry faster, in less than 8 hours, while oil-based enamel paints may take 24 hours. Oil-based enamel tends to be more durable and retain its shine for longer than water-based enamel paint.
