Why Did This Customer Hire Us To Help Out With Her Home?

This homeowner which we helped out right here in PTC needed several walls and surfaces around her house repainted.

She and her husband and daughter had recently purchased this local house which was only a couple of years old, but even so, still required a few touch-ups here and there.

Yet, they both felt compelled to invest in the future of their new home by hiring our professional painting services to help make it look and feel like it was theirs personally now.

What Caused This Customer's Walls To Become So Sticky?

One of the main things that we helped assist with for this project involved painting over several walls in which some leftover wallpaper paste had actually begun to start seeping down.

A common complaint that many customers have when this happens is that it makes their walls not only look but also feel sticky.

But how exactly does this happen?

Whenever some wallpaper has just been freshly removed, it's sometimes the case that a homeowner will then transition immediately into painting over it with some latex paint before properly cleaning off any remaining residue paste.

However, since latex paint is porous enough to allow external moisture to permeate into it, this then allows for underlying wallpaper paste to be reactivated. Thus, the sticky seeping begins.

Using a prepainting disinfectant followed by an oil or shellac-based primer prior to repainting a seeping wall is sure to help resolve this issue in no time though, and that's exactly what we were able to do in this case.

Once finished, this customer was thrilled to see the results of her freshly painted walls and was glad to finally be rid of all that old, sticky residue too.

Moving can be tough, but it's a lot easier when you are moving into a beautiful home! This family just recently bought a new home, but didn't like the colors in their bedrooms. Our goal was to update and improve the quality of their rooms so that their transition would be a little less stressful. 

The rooms were in pretty good shape, but there were lots of holes in the walls from where the previous owners had hung things with nails. First, we filled in the nail holes and then we sanded all of the walls to give us the smooth surface we would need later on. We've learned that it is crucial to take time to get rid of any imperfections on walls before painting. By doing this, we are able to start painting with a prepared canvas which will produce the most lasting results.

When the walls were adequately sanded, we then moved on to the painting process. We put on two coats of paint in each room which helped to fully cover the original color on the walls. It was amazing to see how with just a little work, these bedrooms went from childish to a very sophisticated designed look.
