A single room takes one to two days. A full house interior usually runs three to seven days, depending on size and ceiling height.
Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore are our usual picks. We choose the product based on the surface, the room, and how much wear it gets.
Interior, yes, anytime. Exterior work depends on temperature. Most paints need above 35 to 40 degrees, so we plan exterior jobs for spring through fall.
No. We move furniture to the center, cover everything in plastic and drop cloths. You only need to clear small items off shelves and walls.
Interior paint holds up 5 to 10 years in normal use. Exterior in Minnesota usually lasts 7 to 12 years, longer if prep was done right.
