There are many things to consider including: type and size of the painted area; type of windows and other trim work; number and intensity of paint colors; amount of protection needed for plants and furniture; quality of paint used; and the extent of needed paint surface preparation. All of those things will need to be considered in order to provide you with an accurate cost estimate.
During our consultation with you, we can evaluate your situation and let you know how long we think it will take to complete your painting project.

We generally work M-F, 8-4:30 We can do work at other hours if needed, but these are our standard working hours.
On interiors, after you have removed your delicate items, all areas or remaining items, will be covered with clean drop cloths or plastic sheeting. On exteriors, shrubs and surrounding areas will be protected so that no evidence of paint splatter or paint peelings remains.
Acrylic (latex) paint dries much faster than Alkyd (oil). Usually a couple of hours is plenty of time. Oil paint though should dry overnight. Flat paint may dry faster than semi gloss.
Please move all small items and breakables. Unless agreed otherwise, we will move and protect all of the furniture and fixtures.
Whether on an interior or exterior paint job, we will normally start clients looking at standard color charts. A lot colors there are stock and the stock color paints tend to perform better due to the process of their manufacture. The exterior paint color chart will also have a nice variety of harmonious color combinations to choose from.
Another very good way to get started on a color selection is to take a look at our web site’s photo gallery. This will give you some idea of what the final look of your home might be and, of cause, we have formulas for all colors that were used there.
You may also want to drive around the neighborhood and find similar houses similar to yours to see what others have done with colors. We may be able to help you with color matching if you send us some digital photos.
We can provide cardboard paint color brush-outs. Many clients find that this helps them to better visualize the final result.
Sheen refers to the light reflectivity of the painted or varnished surface. There are varying degrees of sheen, from no sheen to high gloss. Though some paint manufacturers may refer to their paint sheens by different names, generaly, from lowest to highest, paint sheens correspond to these reflective degrees.
Paint blocking is an adhesion problem that occurs when two freshly painted surfaces stick together when pressed against each other. This often happens between a door and frame if closed before paint has completely cured. When separated, the paint may peel or leave a mark.
One way to prevent paint stickiness is to place wax paper between the door and the door jamb. The wax from the paper creates a barrier between the two surfaces. Don’t immediately stick the paper in the door frame. Instead, wait for the door to dry for one to two hours. Then place the wax paper between the two surfaces before closing the door for the night. Another wax method is to rub a white candle over the edges of the door after the paint dries. This gives the freshly painted door some protection from the newly finished jamb.
We keep a close eye on the weather and weather forecasts. If it start raining while we are in the middle of a painting job, we simply stop and return after it drys up.
