Frequently asked questions

  • How do you prepare the space before painting?

    At E.M. Painters, we meticulously prepare each space to ensure a flawless, long-lasting finish. First, we protect furniture and floors with drop cloths and plastic sheeting. Walls are cleaned to remove dust and grease, while holes and cracks are patched and sanded smooth. We caulk gaps around trim and baseboards for a seamless look. Painter’s tape is applied for crisp, clean edges. For exterior jobs, we power wash surfaces, scrape loose paint, and sand rough areas. Priming is done when needed to promote adhesion and uniform coverage. This thorough preparation guarantees a professional, durable, and polished result.

  • Will you clean up after the job is done?

    Yes, at E.M. Painters, we prioritize leaving your space spotless once the job is complete. We carefully remove all drop cloths, plastic sheeting, and painter’s tape, ensuring no residue or paint splatters are left behind. Our team thoroughly vacuums and sweeps the area, wiping down surfaces for a clean, polished finish. Furniture is carefully moved back into place, and fixtures are reinstalled. We properly dispose of any leftover materials and paint cans, following eco-friendly practices when possible. Our goal is to leave your home or business looking fresh, tidy, and beautifully transformed—ready for you to enjoy immediately.
