alt
Synthetic resin paint that is an oil base paint.

alt
What is latex paint?

Paint that can be thinned and cleaned up with water; used as a base for emulsion paints.

alt
What is an acrylic paint?
alt
Synthetic resin that is present in most latex paints. It helps interior paints in adhesion, coverage and scrub ability.

alt
Can you apply latex over oil base?
alt
Generally, no. If the oil base is flat, it will adhere, but if the oil base has a sheen- no.

alt
Can you apply oil over latex?
alt
Yes, interior and exterior.

alt
Why will oil base white paint turn yellow?
alt
The alkyd resins in oil based paint cause the gradual yellowing of white and off-white colors.

alt
What can be done to paint latex over oil base paint?
alt
A barrier coat of oil base flat primer on interior or exterior surfaces should be applied. Also, you can sand and “rough up” the surface. This will aid adhesion of the latex.

alt
Is there a paint that is guaranteed not to mildew?
alt
No. Mildew is a living organism that can feed on all types of surfaces (except zinc and metal). You can kill mildew by washing with a mixture of household bleach and water (1 qt. bleach to 1 gallon water).

alt
Can you paint over mildew?
alt

Yes, you can, but it’s not advisable. Mildew will grow into the finish coat of paint. The surface has to be cleaned with a chlorine and water solution before painting.


alt
Can you tell me why some estimates seem high while other seem so low?
alt
Most of the cost of a paint job is in the labor. The price is determined by the amount of surface preparation, the attention to detail, and quality desired. We would be happy to review, in detail, our specifications and paint preparations.

alt
The last painter we hired would work for a few days, and then would be gone for a couple of days; always starting and stopping. Will you stay on the job once you begin?
alt
Yes. We’ll stay with the project and work until your painting project is completed (weather permitting). Our goal is to have the same crew work on your job from start to finish.

alt
Do you have references?
alt
Yes, we will be happy to provide reference of similar jobs completed.

alt
Are you certified?
alt
Yes, the ProPaintTeam is certified in painting and waterproofing.

alt
Do you use top quality paint?
alt
Yes, we use premium quality products from all of the major suppliers. However, the brand of paint we use can be influenced by other factors including customer preference, the nature of the project, and other bid specifications.

alt
Do you have a warranty?
alt
Yes, we have a detailed warranty, as described on the ProPaintTeam page of our website.

alt
Do you protect our furnishings and clean up after you are done?
alt
Yes, floors, furniture and areas that are not supposed to be painted will be protected. On completion we will pick up and clean up to return your home to the condition that we found it.

alt
Will my job be completed by experienced painters?
alt
Yes. Our painters have a minimum of 10 years experience, and have received adequate training in the tasks that they are assigned.

alt
Can you tell me what I need to do in order to get ready for the painters?
alt
Yes. The only items we ask the customer to move are the small knick-knack type items and pictures, unless otherwise directed. We come expecting to move furniture, window treatments, and switch plates. Upon completion of the painting we will place all items we moved back in their correct location.

alt
Will you come back and take care of any touch up issues after the job is completed?
alt
Yes, if there are any areas that need to be touched up we will be more than happy to come back and touch up any affected areas. Punch out is done on every job once completed.
