Our painting contractor recommends using latex (water-based) paint for most walls, and oil-based paint for trim or high-moisture areas. Sheens range from flat/matte (for low-traffic areas) to semi-gloss (for kitchens and bathrooms). According to This Old House, one gallon of paint covers about 350 to 400 square feet with one coat, and most interior walls require two coats over a primer.

Clean the walls, repair cracks or holes, sand rough spots, and apply primer if necessary (especially over dark colors or stains) before our painting contractor arrives for the best experience!

Most latex paints dry to the touch in one hour and can be recoated in four hours. Oil-based paint needs six to eight hours to dry and 24 hours between coats. Our painting contractor can give more specifics!

Ideally, our painting contractor recommends a temperature between 50°F and 85°F (10°C-30°C). Avoid extreme heat, cold, or humidity!

Painting is quicker and easier to change, while wallpaper offers more texture, pattern, and durability in high-traffic areas. Our painting contractor is happy to help with either!

Yes, but our painting contractor recommends that the wall be clean, dry, and smooth. Glossy paint should be sanded lightly as well.

This is not recommended. The wallpaper may not adhere well, and could emphasize seams or textures underneath. Our painting contractor can help you find an alternative!

Peel-and-stick is easier to apply and remove, making it best for renters or temporary designs. Traditional requires paste or water, making it more permanent and durable. Call our painting contractor for more answers!

Quality wallpaper can last 10-15 years or more if applied and maintained properly by an expert wallpaper and painting contractor!
