painting Your House:
Information, Research and Price Estimates
Painting your house is one of the best ways to add value to your home.
This is true even if you are putting on the same color as before.
Using paint of a good quality can make a surface,
easier to clean and capable of washing without the risk of removing the paint.
Interior Painting
If you are working indoors, you must attend to the holes in walls and ceilings before slapping on a coat of paint. These areas should be repaired with a vinyl spackling compound and they will usually require more than one coat due to shrinkage. If you have larger damaged areas to repair then you will most likely need to use wallboard or plaster patch. You can make wallboard repairs with Fiberglas joint tape and drywall joint compound. Plaster repairs can be successfully made with plaster patching product. If you need to blend in a textured finish after you make a repair, try using a spray texture in an aerosol can.
Exterior Painting
For exterior finishes, you will probably be working with old flaking paint on the siding, trim, gutters and downspouts. This needs to be removed before you put a fresh coat of paint on. The most effective approach would be to begin with a power washing with water to remove the majority of the damage and then use a paint scraper to remove the remaining flaking, chipped or blistered paint. Once that is done, mix together a solution of 50/50 bleach and water to remove mold and mildew.
Paint
Your next step is to select the right paint and applicators for the job.
This step is essential to an attractive and long-lasting result.
As a rule of thumb, note that the more costly the paint is the better quality it is. Basically this means is that a costly paint will most likely get the job done in one-coat, be abrasion-resistant and remain good looking for a longer period of time. It is definitely worth paying the extra money for. Below are a few tips on what type of paint should be used for applications.
Oil-base semi-gloss enamel should be used for surfaces that will be subject to abundant moisture, such as basements, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and kitchens. Although new advances in latex paint are making latex just as durable in wet spaces.
A High-quality 100-percent-acrylic latex flat wall paint should be used on other surfaces.
Exterior paint should be selected according to the material that you are painting. There are special paints designed to work with different materials.

Painting your home is a great investment. You'll want to make sure you are choosing the right painter for your house and your budget. We offer Free Painting Price Quotes from local, prescreened house painters.
In today's day most of us can't do without paint for our homes- but we can do without harming the environment and unfortunately paint causes harm to the environment. The good thing is that there are simple steps you can take to avoid harming the environment while using paint. Green painting is full of simple ways to make painting healthier for you and our environment. Going green isn't harder of more difficult when it comes to painting. In fact, its not even more costly to you. In fact, all it takes is a commitment to taking certain additional steps in the selection and care of your paint.
Never pour paint down a drain. This is one of the biggest mistakes people make without realizing that there are chances that the paint (and the harmful chemicals in it) can pollute our groundwater. Instead, consider taking the lids off your old paint cans to solidify the remaining paint. For liquids that don't solidify such as thinners, add kitty litter or shredded newspapers to absorb the liquid.
When purchasing paint, there are simple steps to take to avoid overbuying paint which will help to eliminate waste. It will also help you save money! Carefully measure the area you will be painting to determine the amount of paint you need. A typical gallon of paint covers about 400 square feet, so unless you have a special kind of surface you are painting that would require extra paint, then use the 400 square feet as your guide to avoid over purchasing. Make sure you thoroughly read the label on the paint can to make sure that the paint is right for your project. Some stores offer recycled paint which would be a great environmentally wise option to chose for your project. If you have any questions, you can surely seek the assistance of a painting expert at a painting supply store or choose to hire a local painting contractor who knows about green painting.
Choose Latex and acrylic paints- these are the best for the environment. Pure acrylic, latex paints are the best because they contain the lowest levels of solvents. You will also want to make sure to choose an acrylic, latex paint that has a low VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) level. Acrylic paints are also less harmful then oil paints. Read more about paint types and the differences between latex, oil and acrylic paints. VOC's are organic chemical compounds that have high enough vapor pressures under normal conditions to significantly vaporize and enter the atmosphere, causing smog in our air and other environmental problems. There should be a notation on the paint can which states that the paint is LEED certified which means that it contains low levels of VOC. You do not have to compromise quality when it comes to low VOC paints. In fact, a great paint company, Sherwin-Williams, has taken great steps to supply low VOC paints. You can read all about their green paints in the green solutions section of their website.
Other Green Painting Tips:
Tightly seal paint cans- Store your unused paint in very tightly sealed cans, upside down.
Wait on washing- If you will be painting for more then one day, try wrapping your tools in a plastic bag for reuse instead of cleaning them at the end of each day. The tools will last overnight or even a few days if kept out of the sun.
Clean and Scrape well- when you are completed with your panting project, scrape any excess paint from the can, latex rollers and brushes with a stir stick or wall scraper. Doing so prior to washing will make them easier to clean. It's also better for the environment in that you will be decreasing the amount of paint going down the drain. Wash your equipment in a sink or similar drain and not in a drain on the street or outside in your yard with a hose
