Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between interior and exterior paint?

Exterior paint contains UV blockers and mildew inhibitors to resist weather and sun damage. Interior paint prioritizes low odor and stain resistance. Using the right formula ensures your paint lasts and performs in its environment.

Do you offer color consultation?

Yes. We review sample colors on your home's walls and discuss how lighting, trim, and landscaping affect your choice. This helps you avoid regret and pick a color you'll love.

How do you handle older brick or historic surfaces?

Historic brick and plaster require careful prep to avoid damage. We assess surface condition and recommend breathable primers or specialty coatings that respect older materials while protecting them.

What's the best time of year to paint in Raphine?

Spring through fall works well. Mountain winters bring freezing temperatures that prevent proper paint cure. Late fall and winter exterior work requires careful scheduling and shelter planning.

Can you paint over existing stains or damage?

Not always. Stains from water damage, mold, or rust require root cause repair first. We'll diagnose issues and recommend fixes before painting to ensure a lasting finish.

Do you provide free estimates?

Yes. We visit your property, assess the scope, discuss your vision, and provide a clear estimate with no obligation.
