Frequently Asked Questions

The right paint depends on the surface, room type, and desired finish. For high-traffic areas, washable, durable paints like satin or semi-gloss work best, while matte or eggshell is ideal for living spaces. For exteriors, opt for weather-resistant, UV-protected paint. A professional painter can guide you based on your needs.

It depends on the size of the area, number of coats, surface preparation, and drying time. A single room can take 1-2 days, while a full house may take several days to a week. Weather and humidity can also affect drying time for exterior projects.

Remove furniture, wall decorations, and fragile items from the painting area. Clean walls if needed, and ensure there’s proper ventilation. Some painters offer prep services like patching holes and priming surfaces, but confirm this beforehand.

Interior walls typically last 5-10 years, while exteriors need repainting every 5-7 years, depending on weather exposure and paint quality. High-traffic areas and moisture-prone spaces may require touch-ups sooner.

Yes, many professional painters provide color consultation services or can recommend trending shades and complementary color schemes. Some even use digital previews to show how different colors will look in your space.
