How Much Paint?
Before you head to the paint store, you’ll want to make some measurements of the area you intend to paint. In general, a gallon of paint covers about 400 square feet, according to Lowes. However, professional painters know how wall conditions can affect the amount of paint needed. Very porous surfaces absorb paint. In fact a heavy-bodied primer for that condition is often required.
Of course when you hire us to paint your house, we do all of the calculations and include the material costs in the bid. No guess work, no trips or return trips to the paint store.

Pets and Painting
Pet lovers need to make a plan for their pets during the painting process. It’s hard enough for homeowners to remember to take precautions with paint products and not touch, lean on or brush up against wet paint. Your pets will probably not get the concept when they are used to wandering the house freely.
One of the best ways to take care of pets is for you to take them off site and have the pros take care of the painting efficiently so you can get your pets back to their normal routine as soon as possible.
