Don’t worry our painters will respect your property the same as they would if you were there.
Q.In a home, how many painters will be present?
A. This depends on the size of the home and the time frame for the project’s completion. However, you can expect a crew of 3-5 painters.

Painting Questions …
Q.Which method is better for applying outdoor paint, brush or spray?
A. Both spraying and brushing are fine, so long as the paint is put on at the proper spread rate. Spraying will give you a smoother appearance and less chance for mildew to get into brush murks and grow. With spraying, the painter has to be careful about getting a full coat onto areas that are next to areas that won’t be painted, so careful masking must be done.
Q.What is latex paint?
A. Paint that can be thinned and cleaned up with water; used as a base for emulsion paints.

A. No there is not. Mildew is a microorganism that can live off all types of surfaces(except metal and zinc). Washing it with a 1:4 mixture of household bleach and water can kill the mildew.

A. Yes, but it is not recommended since it will grow into the finish coat of paint.
