We have already completed commercial painting projects for numerous customers including the city of Flower Mound, TX, several house painting projects in Fort Worth, TX, and commercial exterior painting projects for a few retail management companies. The project below is of a retail project recently completed in Fort Worth. It was the exterior of a retail shopping center that was in dire need of some color.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; The owner and Management company stated that the center had just been painted as recently as 3 years ago. While that may have been true the prior painting contractor obviously didn't use either the highest quality paint or neglected to do the required prep work prior to painting the building. The building was badly faded&lt;br /&gt;and need to be painted. We started the project by pressure washing the exterior then we covered all of the ground areas being mindful of the fact that there were going to be customers coming and going. We then installed a coat of Sherwin Williams exterior primer and 2 coats of Sherwin Williams exterior latex DTM paint. The results are evident below that the center looks much better and will serve the client with many years of great results both cosmetically and structurally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Well, it's been hot as heck here in DFW and we are looking forward to being able to paint commercial and residential projects without having to purchase 80 lbs of ice everyday.&amp;nbsp; We have completed several large projects this summer including several parking garages, a hospital exterior, and countless home exteriors.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; More recently we have&amp;nbsp; had tons of call's, 5-10 per week about acoustic removal (popcorn ceilings). In agreeing with most people popcorn ceilings are hideous. Believe it or not when my wife and I purchased our home it had popcorn on all the ceilings and splatter drag walls. Never really made much sense to me for a builder to spec popcorn on the ceilings and splatter drag for the walls. The reality of it is this, the same texture contractor has to drag his equipment in to do the walls, so why not just shoot the ceilings too? Guess that would just make too much sense.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; Popcorn ceiling removal is a tedious process. If you are trying to tackle it yourself let me give you a few pointers. First, empty your entire house, really!! There's nothing worse than having to scrape ceilings with a house full of furniture. Secondly, purchase a LOT of plastic and cover all the walls from the inside corner where the walls meet the ceiling all the way to the floor. Third, cover all the floors. Make sure there are no open areas through the plastic and seal all seams. Use all blue 3m tape, it's more expensive than the yellow tape but it won't pull the paint and texture off of the walls or damage flooring.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; There's two ways to remove the popcorn. First is what we call the dry method. In essence we take 12" metal blades and scrape the ceilings with them making the surface flat. The second method is the dry method, we spary the ceiling liberally with water, wait a few minutes and then scrape the ceilings. The wet method is&lt;br /&gt;a little more messy than the first but creates less dust throughout the home. Make sure to cover all flooring areas outside of the areas you are working in. Trust me when I tell you this stuff gets everywhere!!!&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; To install the texture you will need a texture machine or a hopper and a compressor. We prefer the texture machine, it's easy to use and you don't have to lug around a bucket that weighs 20 lbs over your head. If your doing the project yourself simply go to home depot and rent a machine, its about $65.00 a day. Shoot the texture on evenly and make big circles with the gun. After you've shot the entire ceiling you are going to need to "knock it down" or flatten it out. To do that once again you will need to visit the home depot and buy a blade from the drywall dept. It's about 18" wide with a long silver handle with a red end on it.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; Before you even start to texture the ceiling you may want to practice first or else you will make a mess of the ceiling and have to do it twice. Simply put, don't scrape the ceiling, just lay the blade flat and very slowly run the flattened out blade across the ceiling until you achieve the desired look.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; Please feel free to ask any questions, we'll be happy to answer them for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tackling you commercial and residential painting and remodeling projects since 1991 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Landmark Property Services&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dfw-paintpros.com/"&gt;www.dfw-paintpros.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;817-627-9003&lt;br /&gt;214-233-5029&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7401920116070553717-6183682524877226528?l=dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/6183682524877226528'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/6183682524877226528'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com/2011/08/this-summers-painting-projects-and.html' title='This Summers painting projects and acoustic removal'/><author><name>Commercial Painters/Residential Painters</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00517048074034932021</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='34' height='9' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L5Do0-M47mI/TUC72JTLPWI/AAAAAAAAAEw/YlKLRHWnybc/s220/Landmark%2BProperty%2BServices%2BLogo.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401920116070553717.post-5725694151976268888</id><published>2011-07-04T12:09:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2011-07-04T15:57:44.206-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='striping contractors'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='remodeling contractor'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='commercial painters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='exterior'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='parking garages'/><title type='text'>Painting, Remodeling, Apartments, and more............................</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-9fD6cw4e-H4/TZcfeQbPJZI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/h2c8IRyUw0s/s1600/016.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;We have been very busy as of late which is why I haven't found the time to blog much about what we've been up to.

The home was pretty much original paint and texture complete with popcorn ceilings and splatter drag texture. We went in and patched quite a few holes in the drywall, removed a lot of the original wallpaper and ceiling borders and of course retextured everything. Once that was completed we were tasked with taping everything off and then painting all of the walls, ceilings, trim, and then cleaning up after ourselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Painted the living room ceiling and walls&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1nHlqarXnLA/Tc_Z5ISd--I/AAAAAAAAARw/d56ENi2Kc0Q/s1600/002.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1nHlqarXnLA/Tc_Z5ISd--I/AAAAAAAAARw/d56ENi2Kc0Q/s320/002.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Painted from the living room to the kitchen ceiling and walls, trim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-t8lJf5XIbu8/Tc_aOTjSURI/AAAAAAAAAR0/Opo3vwTcJsk/s1600/003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-t8lJf5XIbu8/Tc_aOTjSURI/AAAAAAAAAR0/Opo3vwTcJsk/s320/003.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; This is the kitchen, notice the white wallpaper on the counter top.

From West Fort Worth to Mckinney we did some interior repairs (pictured below) and some exterior painting which we will upload photos for later. In the photos below we reworked an inlaid TV shelf so the customer can mount a flat screen tv above the fireplace. In the same home we are removing installed mexican tile and installing a tile that fit more with the layout of the house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;This photograph is obviously what we started with, notice the "hole" where a tv is supposed to go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bvYYOIBzh2M/Tc8CCD1stPI/AAAAAAAAARQ/sbHXhknezVs/s1600/009.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bvYYOIBzh2M/Tc8CCD1stPI/AAAAAAAAARQ/sbHXhknezVs/s320/009.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our customer specifically requested that we try to keep the dust to a minimum so we began construction on a tent in order to minimize the dust throughout her home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zo-2ZgsM-9E/Tc8CMHsc2bI/AAAAAAAAARU/S3zRhWjjEZc/s1600/010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zo-2ZgsM-9E/Tc8CMHsc2bI/AAAAAAAAARU/S3zRhWjjEZc/s320/010.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This photograph is after the tent was constructed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9_LWY1HLoSQ/Tc8CU0yAsUI/AAAAAAAAARY/pk2OZ8dmFK0/s1600/011.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9_LWY1HLoSQ/Tc8CU0yAsUI/AAAAAAAAARY/pk2OZ8dmFK0/s320/011.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The process we used was to remove the wooded shelf at the bottom and then remove all of the corner bead so that when it was framed and then taped and bedded it wouldn't be noticeably higher than the rest of the wall. This photograph is after it was framed and the electrical and cable was moved forward and it was framed and taped and bedded.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cemHcZeKPKI/Tc8CdP-iTcI/AAAAAAAAARc/x_tGglQ_-zQ/s1600/012.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cemHcZeKPKI/Tc8CdP-iTcI/AAAAAAAAARc/x_tGglQ_-zQ/s320/012.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the photo below we installed a "spanish drag" texture in order to match the rest of the interior of the house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QFF8lcOKhsQ/Tc8CoOFrxWI/AAAAAAAAARg/OYu_f4oyFPc/s1600/015.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QFF8lcOKhsQ/Tc8CoOFrxWI/AAAAAAAAARg/OYu_f4oyFPc/s320/015.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this photograph all we have left to do is paint the wall and we're finished.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RZ1x8ZQvS_o/Tc_TcihtohI/AAAAAAAAARo/YvLsJhCY-N4/s1600/016.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RZ1x8ZQvS_o/Tc_TcihtohI/AAAAAAAAARo/YvLsJhCY-N4/s320/016.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Landmark Property Services is a full service company serving all of the greater DFW areas.

Exterior painting is pretty much what we do this time of year for both commercial and residential applications. The most important part of any exterior painting project is the prep work. In the video above one of the guys is pressure washing an exterior prior to doing any further prep work. In the video you will see the amount of dirt, grime, etc. washing off of the house. Believe it or not this house was painted 5 years ago according to the homeowner. Before selecting a painting contractor to do any work on you home or commercial business please be sure to ask about the prep work.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; Exterior painting is not an easy task. It requires a lot of up and down ladders and a lot of prep work. We generally start off replacing any rotted wood or for commercial painting projects we will make any repairs to stucco, concrete, etc. Once we make the repairs then we begin the prep work. Pressure washing is imperative to the adhesion properties of the paint. After pressure washing we caulk all visible joints, spackle all areas that require it, then of course we will sand where required. Once the prep is completed we cover all landscaping, cars, windows, etc.&amp;nbsp; Then we install generally 2 coats of paint.&amp;nbsp; Contact us for all of your exterior painting needs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Landmark Property Services&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dfw-paintpros.com/"&gt;www.dfw-paintpros.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;817-627-9003&lt;br /&gt;214-233-5029&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7401920116070553717-3845140853403102988?l=dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/3845140853403102988'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/3845140853403102988'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com/2011/04/we-are-doing-lot-of-exterior-paintng.html' title='We are doing a lot of exterior painting right now'/><author><name>Commercial Painters/Residential Painters</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00517048074034932021</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='34' height='9' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L5Do0-M47mI/TUC72JTLPWI/AAAAAAAAAEw/YlKLRHWnybc/s220/Landmark%2BProperty%2BServices%2BLogo.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401920116070553717.post-5660208335041236712</id><published>2011-04-03T14:31:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-04-03T14:31:34.695-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wood replacement'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='house painters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='paint services'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='exterior painters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='paint companies'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='remodeling kitchen and bathroom'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='painting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='paint contractors'/><title type='text'>More remodeling projects and interior/exterior house painting</title><content type='html'>&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Sorry I haven't blogged more about the projects we are working on. It's that time of the year and everyone needs everything done yesterday. We are very thankful to have had the opportunity to work for a lot of&lt;br /&gt;great people this year and we look forward to what the future brings. It's promising to see people starting to work on their houses and businesses again.&amp;nbsp; My background is in construction not finance, however I can see changes on the horizon and they look good thus far.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; Anyway, we are still working on a remodeling project in Carrollton, TX and we almost have it completed, maybe another couple of days to completion. Along with that we have been tackling a few commercial painting projects and exterior house painting projects. Remodeling projects are great fun and we really enjoy watching the changes take place and the customers reaction once some serious progress has taken place. In our last post about the remodeling project we posted some photos of when we first started and here are some more of the same project about midway though completion. Also you will see an exterior house paint we did in Fort Worth and one in Dallas just down the street from Love Field in Oaklawn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Sorry for the fuzzy photo, one of the guys was cleaning while I was taking photographs and my camera caught the dust. Anyway, below is a before photo of the fireplace with the original brick still installed. The pile of rock that you see on the floor is limestone. The original brick will be removed and the limestone will be installed along with a marble base that will meet the engineered wood flooring being installed. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Eaa3MTYlnhY/TZi1VqahrHI/AAAAAAAAAJo/nVMuKc5NpqA/s1600/013.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Eaa3MTYlnhY/TZi1VqahrHI/AAAAAAAAAJo/nVMuKc5NpqA/s320/013.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; This photo is of the skylight that we installed. Also, at the right corner under the skylight was originally a window that we removed so we installed a solartube to make up the difference in the window being deleted. What you see immediately to your right is plastic. We cut a 6' hole in the wall, added a header and created a new entrance to the formal dining room.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HBtMtzX6yKg/TZi1e89q1vI/AAAAAAAAAJs/7qCWKyp17QQ/s1600/012.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HBtMtzX6yKg/TZi1e89q1vI/AAAAAAAAAJs/7qCWKyp17QQ/s320/012.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; In this photo what you see is a set of french door after installation. Originally there was a 8' long sliding glass door that the customer no longer wanted. The house has settled over the years and if you weren't 6'7 and 450 lbs it was tough to open. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s9XAuGnl3Tg/TZi1mg5bwWI/AAAAAAAAAJw/H7t59Gv5Z_E/s1600/014.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s9XAuGnl3Tg/TZi1mg5bwWI/AAAAAAAAAJw/H7t59Gv5Z_E/s320/014.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; In this photo you see the kitchen. Originally when the home was built the builder decided to construct a sub ceiling to run all of the HVAC to the living room, kitchen, and laundry room. What we did was remove the sub ceiling, remove the original 4' lighting fixtures and run new HVAC duct and install 8 recessed lighting cans. Its also hard to tell in the photo but we also sanded and refinished the cabinets. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4pEEBft5ETM/TZi1wdRVV3I/AAAAAAAAAJ0/bITH_SzZPrI/s1600/015.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4pEEBft5ETM/TZi1wdRVV3I/AAAAAAAAAJ0/bITH_SzZPrI/s320/015.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This of course is another photo of the kitchen but from a different angle. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4n7YVgQQ55o/TZi15aKuIZI/AAAAAAAAAJ4/7JTTfTQ83x0/s1600/016.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4n7YVgQQ55o/TZi15aKuIZI/AAAAAAAAAJ4/7JTTfTQ83x0/s320/016.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;This is the fireplace after removing the original brick. We had to rebuild all the supports behind the fireplace including a new header and studs due to water rot, and termite damage. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Bbld0vHGaQw/TZi2CKerFGI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/J9NCQ1b2Gbw/s1600/017.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Bbld0vHGaQw/TZi2CKerFGI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/J9NCQ1b2Gbw/s320/017.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;The photo below is actually the other side of the kitchen or if you prefer where the breakfast table goes. The cabinet you see there is from another part of the house in the bar area that we moved so the customer can have a place to put things while serving breakfast. To the left of the base cabinet there was a door going to the bar area. We deleted the door to create a more personal space and added the doorway you see in the photo above. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JziT65egrUs/TZi2dSOxvqI/AAAAAAAAAKA/qA-tyUBWMxE/s1600/020.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-JziT65egrUs/TZi2dSOxvqI/AAAAAAAAAKA/qA-tyUBWMxE/s320/020.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MUNVEJ0UEII/TZjBSB7rY9I/AAAAAAAAAKE/UCz_mFKe1vY/s1600/010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MUNVEJ0UEII/TZjBSB7rY9I/AAAAAAAAAKE/UCz_mFKe1vY/s320/010.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Exterior house painting project Before photo&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KeaZUaGemGY/TZjBd9Xf5hI/AAAAAAAAAKI/4yeJ6ipPyj4/s1600/011.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KeaZUaGemGY/TZjBd9Xf5hI/AAAAAAAAAKI/4yeJ6ipPyj4/s320/011.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;This photo is of course one of our guys pressure washing the exterior of the house and the sidewalks. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dhDVUawRW5g/TZjBmaOdNhI/AAAAAAAAAKM/PjRvMI1zg3Q/s1600/012.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dhDVUawRW5g/TZjBmaOdNhI/AAAAAAAAAKM/PjRvMI1zg3Q/s320/012.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;This is obviously before the paint. We installed a large amount of trim at the top near the soffits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_pBVpyrXZMw/TZjB56_na-I/AAAAAAAAAKQ/rBLsmTwxeTg/s1600/013.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_pBVpyrXZMw/TZjB56_na-I/AAAAAAAAAKQ/rBLsmTwxeTg/s320/013.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;It was a large home and here is one of our guys still pressure washing the exterior prior to paint.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VuxmqZj54vw/TZjCQJWLlhI/AAAAAAAAAKU/c7kpLm6UmgQ/s1600/014.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VuxmqZj54vw/TZjCQJWLlhI/AAAAAAAAAKU/c7kpLm6UmgQ/s320/014.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp; This project actually turned into quite a bit of work once our customer figured out that we do more than just paint. In the photo below we installed the mold resistant sheetrock&amp;nbsp; on the ceiling then taped and bedded the joints. We also installed two sets of french doors along with the trim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iroCEd1cHjg/TZjCdX1AQYI/AAAAAAAAAKY/JiUUeFmcaJ8/s1600/017.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iroCEd1cHjg/TZjCdX1AQYI/AAAAAAAAAKY/JiUUeFmcaJ8/s320/017.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;This is the after photo of the house. First we pressured washed the house. Next, we caulked all of the cracks and crevices then installed a Sherwin Williams exterior primer specifically designed for masonry, then a Sherwin Williams exterior A100 exterior satin paint as our finish coat. As you can see the change was pretty drastic but all in all the home turned out beautiful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0vuax_GSI6Q/TZjCssHuYLI/AAAAAAAAAKc/xGzU2hVEFZM/s1600/019.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0vuax_GSI6Q/TZjCssHuYLI/AAAAAAAAAKc/xGzU2hVEFZM/s320/019.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZywVJ4ACzng/TZjC4WDc6rI/AAAAAAAAAKg/HlKlurPTWuk/s1600/024.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZywVJ4ACzng/TZjC4WDc6rI/AAAAAAAAAKg/HlKlurPTWuk/s320/024.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The&amp;nbsp; exterior of the garage after the finish coat was installed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M3j4NNE3hig/TZjDG23mS0I/AAAAAAAAAKk/tGD9TbIFxDU/s1600/022.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M3j4NNE3hig/TZjDG23mS0I/AAAAAAAAAKk/tGD9TbIFxDU/s320/022.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I have to plug a friend of mines business. Her name is Shalei and she owns Sign-A-Rama in downtown Dallas. She did the decals on the truck that you see.

We are starting out with the kitchen and living room and then moving on to the formal living room and a patio. This week we did all of the demo on the kitchen and living room along with adding a solar tube, moving some interior walls, refinishing cabinets, etc. The photos below are the before and during. Once the construction is completed we will finish out with a splatter drag texture and paint. Be sure to check back with us from time to time as we will post progress photos and if you follow is on twitter we update what we're working on almost daily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This photo is of course a before of the living room. We are removing the paneling and installing new drywall&lt;br /&gt;along with rock on the fireplace and new flooring. In upcoming photos there will also be a skylight "solar tube" installed. Currently the ceiling fan is controlled by an electrical outlet we will hard wire it for a switch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-dKwBd5huaik/TXJDiL1iU-I/AAAAAAAAAGA/Waoyx2YNLAw/s1600/006.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-dKwBd5huaik/TXJDiL1iU-I/AAAAAAAAAGA/Waoyx2YNLAw/s320/006.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;This photo is a before of the kitchen. The ceiling is going to be raised and we will install recessed lighting along with granite tops, cabinet refinishing, new paint and texture. We will also close off a door to the formal living room to create a more intimate space.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-IcpzkoFMcMs/TXJDr3PHAFI/AAAAAAAAAGE/bxTdG2MGSfQ/s1600/004.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-IcpzkoFMcMs/TXJDr3PHAFI/AAAAAAAAAGE/bxTdG2MGSfQ/s320/004.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;This is the living room during construction. We have removed the old paneling and in doing so it destroyed the drywall beyond repair so we will install new insulation (what you see there is R-11 from the 70's and not&lt;br /&gt;very energy efficient) and new drywall, texture and paint.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-AREcEutjKsM/TXJD2wCgzII/AAAAAAAAAGI/leb1CuKfP0U/s1600/010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-AREcEutjKsM/TXJD2wCgzII/AAAAAAAAAGI/leb1CuKfP0U/s320/010.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;This is the kitchen during demo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-0eDhEIzxbx0/TXJD_qpc3eI/AAAAAAAAAGM/5rn5kW4782I/s1600/011.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-0eDhEIzxbx0/TXJD_qpc3eI/AAAAAAAAAGM/5rn5kW4782I/s320/011.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dfw-paintpros.com/"&gt;www.dfw-paintpros.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/Housepainterdfw"&gt;twitter.com/Housepainterdfw&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7401920116070553717-4906499288124629306?l=dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/4906499288124629306'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/4906499288124629306'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com/2011/03/we-are-also-remodeling-contractors-in.html' title='We are also remodeling contractors In Dallas and Fort Worth'/><author><name>Commercial Painters/Residential Painters</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00517048074034932021</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='34' height='9' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L5Do0-M47mI/TUC72JTLPWI/AAAAAAAAAEw/YlKLRHWnybc/s220/Landmark%2BProperty%2BServices%2BLogo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-dKwBd5huaik/TXJDiL1iU-I/AAAAAAAAAGA/Waoyx2YNLAw/s72-c/006.JPG' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401920116070553717.post-4672465299093159240</id><published>2011-02-25T15:12:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2011-02-25T15:12:52.984-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='interior'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='house painters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='painters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='exterior'/><title type='text'>Will the price of House painting go up?</title><content type='html'>&amp;nbsp;Will the price of interior and exterior house painting go up? In a word, no and here's why. The prices for interior and exterior house painting will actually go down. It's simple economics my friends and by being in the business for almost 20 years I can attest to the fact that a painting contractor was actually charging more in the year 2000 than he/she is right now.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; Labor prices are going to continue to plummet because of one thing, a down economy. Here's the story, when the Dot Com boom was in full force from about 1995 until 2003 things were moving, and fast. Businesses were growing, people were building mansions, we all drove gas guzzling suv's, and the commercial construction business was building at a rate not seen since after WWII.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; Since 2003 the commercial construction business has actually shrank. Right around 2008 when the commercial construction business hit the low it is at today all of the workers that did commercial construction were out of work. When that happened you had/have roughly 2-3 million workers without jobs, so what did they do? They started to do residential work and effectively drove the prices down for the rest of us.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; While the prices were being driven into the ground the average house painter actually ended up going out of business simply due to the fact that he/she didn't see the changes coming. In essence these "mom &amp;amp; pop" companies couldn't adapt and compete with the influx of competition. The companies that managed to survive the onslaught of new labor are actually being forced to bring their prices down to match what the newcomers price things at and so what happens is the customer is actually getting a better deal from a top notch company than they would have before.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;In essence what I'm saying is if you or someone you know is in the market to get some things done around the house or office, now in my opinion is the best time to get it done. Eventually, prices will go back up it's only a question of when. Please read my 15 things you should know before you hire any contractor, just scroll down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for stopping by,&lt;br /&gt;Landmark Property Services&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dfw-paintpros.com/"&gt;www.dfw-paintpros.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7401920116070553717-4672465299093159240?l=dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/4672465299093159240'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/4672465299093159240'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com/2011/02/will-price-of-house-painting-go-up.html' title='Will the price of House painting go up?'/><author><name>Commercial Painters/Residential Painters</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00517048074034932021</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='34' height='9' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L5Do0-M47mI/TUC72JTLPWI/AAAAAAAAAEw/YlKLRHWnybc/s220/Landmark%2BProperty%2BServices%2BLogo.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401920116070553717.post-2776619389487326600</id><published>2011-02-22T16:22:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2011-02-22T16:22:53.179-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='house painters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='commercial painters'/><title type='text'>Want to know if the exterior of your home needs to be repainted?</title><content type='html'>&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I look at at lot of homes throughout the year and in doing so I consider myself a pretty good judge when it&lt;br /&gt;comes to whether painting is needed or not. Heres the problem that I see most, rotted 1X4's around windows, doors, etc. and heres where the paint come in. A good quality paint realistically only last around 7 years or so especially here in the Dallas/Fort Worth areas. We have the worst weather when it comes to paint lasting the specified warranty time which generally is anywhere from 10 to 15 years.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; This post doesn't only pertain to the trim around the windows and the doors. It also applies to all the wood&lt;br /&gt;on the exterior of your home. In a nutshell paint is what prevents the wood from rotting in the first place. For instance, on my personal home I paint all of the trim around the windows and doors every 3 years and really unless you live in a mansion you should be able to do it yourself too. In the long run it will save you time and money by not having to pay a painter or a carpenter to replace the wood every 10 years or so.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; If in fact your home does have some rotted wood make sure whoever you hire to replace it primes it prior to painting it. A good primer is worth its weight in gold as far as I am concerned and a piece of wood should never be painted before it is primed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for reading,&lt;br /&gt;Landmark Property Services&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dfw-paintpros.com/"&gt;www.dfw-paintpros.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7401920116070553717-2776619389487326600?l=dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/2776619389487326600'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7401920116070553717/posts/default/2776619389487326600'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dfw-paintpros.blogspot.com/2011/02/want-to-know-if-exterior-of-your-home.html' title='Want to know if the exterior of your home needs to be repainted?'/><author><name>Commercial Painters/Residential Painters</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00517048074034932021</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='34' height='9' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L5Do0-M47mI/TUC72JTLPWI/AAAAAAAAAEw/YlKLRHWnybc/s220/Landmark%2BProperty%2BServices%2BLogo.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7401920116070553717.post-4977237936590640015</id><published>2011-02-05T17:31:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2011-02-05T17:31:53.156-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dfw'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='house painters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='commercial painters'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='painting companies'/><title type='text'>15 Things you should ask your Painting Company or ANY Contractor before hiring them!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Below are the Top 15 Questions you should ask a painting services company that you’re considering hiring.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-converted-space"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;By  interviewing the contractor using this “checklist” of questions, you  will find an experienced, quality contractor who will do excellent work  on your home or property…&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;…and at best, it will help you avoid getting Ripped-Off.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;1. What type of paint do you use?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Paint quality can vary, so it’s important to know the brand and type of paint that will be used on your home or property.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;A  good painter will usually recommend high quality paint, but it’s always  a good idea to ask for other options and make sure your potential paint  contractor can explain the added benefits a more expensive paint has to  offer over a less expensive one. Also, asking for information on the  paint manufacturer’s warranty regarding reliability may help you decide  what kind of paint is better for your home or property.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;If  you are sensitive to “new paint smell” you may also wish to inquire  about the option of using paint that contains low VOC (Volatile Organic  Compounds).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;2. Is your estimate a flat rate?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;When asking a painting company for a quote on the cost of your job, make sure you get it in writing.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;Make  sure it’s stated what exactly is included in the quote and how firm  that costs will be. There’s nothing worse than have your painting  company give you a good price and then coming back to you later with  additional fees charges.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;Make  sure your quote specifies the areas to be painted, the number of coats,  the materials to be used, labor and how long the job will take. Be sure  to ask if there are any additional fees or expenses that might be  involved. The more specifics that are included in your quote, the easier  it will be to compare costs between bids.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;3. Do you offer a written guarantee?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;When discussing the guarantee, get your painting company to put it in writing.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;Otherwise,  you may find that your original verbal guarantee will provide no more  than what the paint manufacturer offered. You need to know what your  paint contractor will do in the event of problems with your painting  job.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;A quality conscious Dallas/Fort Worth Painting company will stand behind their work and they will say so in writing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;4. How long will the job take to complete?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;After  your painting job has started, you want to be sure that your contractor  will stay on the job continuously until your job is completely done.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;Living  in the middle of a half finished job while your painter is off on other  paint projects makes your experience much harder than it has to be.  Make sure that the company you hire is clear to you that he/she will  show up every day until your job is completed as promised.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;5. How will non-painted surfaces be protected?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Make  sure your painting services company has a definite plan for protecting  non painting areas and surfaces from paint splatters and spills.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;Areas  such as your floors, furniture, planters, driveway and even your roof  will need to be covered and protected from spills and splatter etc.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;6. How will you prepare surfaces for painting?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Well-executed preparation before the job begins makes a huge difference in the quality of the your completed paint job.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-converted-space"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Ask your contractor what they will do regarding sanding, cleaning and scraping the surfaces that need painting.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;7. Will you be using a paint primer before painting?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Bare surfaces that are to be painted will require a primer to be used.&lt;span class="Apple-converted-space"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;A surface that is being repainted will not require primer.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;8. What areas will be caulked before painting begins?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Caulking is an absolute key to a well done paint job.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If  your painter does not caulk the seams, joints, gaps or cracks in  surfaces, moisture can get between the paint the surface and cause it to  fail or peel away later.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;9. What can I expect in regards to the clean up after the job is completed?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;No  one wants to spend a lot of money on a paint job and end up having to  spend a lot of time cleaning up after a bunch of clumsy nonchalant  painters.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Find out ahead of time how they plan clean-up and leave your property once the job is completed.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;10. Who will supervise the project?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;If the person giving you the painting estimate will not be supervising the paint project,&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-converted-space"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;ask to meet that person who will be supervising beforehand and find out about their experience to &lt;/b&gt;ensure they are qualified for that job and most of all that you feel comfortable with them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;— LAST MINUTE BONUS QUESTIONS FOR CERTAINTY —&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;11. Will there be subcontractors used for planning the job?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;You should know if the painting firm you hire does not plan on doing the work themselves.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;If  this be the case, you definitely need to contact and be certain that  you can trust subcontractors that will be working on your home or  property by asking them these same questions.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;12.

The Davis Building is a historical landmark and is currently a hi rise apartment complex or urban living quarters if you prefer. In addition to working in downtown we also have painted a few gas stations and multi family projects. All of which we will post photos of when we get time.
