FREQUENTY ASKED QUESTIONS:
1. How do I know what sheen of paint to use for my project?
The sheen refers to level of shininess in the paint finish.
Sheen choice also plays a role in the durability of the paint.
Some sheens are very washable and others are not at all.
The chart is highlighting the typical sheen choice for each area.
Trends are also a factor when making choices, Parks Painting
works hard to stay current in what the trends are in all types of
Residential and Commercial spaces. We know the colors, finishes,
and sheens that will best compliment your decor.
We offer FREE color consultations!

2. Why do I need to pressure wash my home and decks regularly?
When mold, mildew, algae and other airborne contaminants are allowed to remain on the exterior
surfaces of a property, they will contribute to premature paint failure and can also cause permanent staining
on your siding material, concrete & gutters. Their root systems will grow into surfaces causing it to split and
crack. Regular yearly maintenance provides lasting protection against building material degradation.

3. What do I need to do to prepare for the painters?

Residential Painting:
Put all pets in a safe place. Take all art down from walls. Remove all small personal and breakable items and store safely. Disconnect all electronic devices or indicate which electronic devices need to stay connected. We will move and/or cover all other furniture and surfaces. When the painting is complete, we will clean up our work area and replace your furniture.
Commercial Painting: We are flexible to demands of the individual job, as these projects vary.
