Most interior rooms take 2-3 days including prep, priming, and two coats of paint. Whole house interiors typically require 5-7 days depending on size and detail work. Exterior projects usually take 4-6 days for average-sized homes, though weather can affect the timeline. We’ll give you a realistic schedule during our initial consultation and keep you updated if anything changes. The key is never rushing the prep work or drying time between coats, because that’s what separates paint jobs that last from ones that don’t.
For exteriors, we use high-quality acrylic latex paints that handle our temperature swings and moisture levels. These paints expand and contract with the weather without cracking or peeling. For interiors, we typically recommend low-VOC latex paints that provide excellent coverage and durability. The specific brand and formula depends on your surface type and traffic level. We’ll explain our recommendations during your estimate so you understand exactly what you’re getting and why it’s the right choice for your specific situation.
We use plastic sheeting and canvas drop cloths to protect all flooring, and we move or cover furniture completely. Light fixtures get covered or removed if necessary. We use painter’s tape designed not to damage surfaces when removed. Our crew is trained to work cleanly and catch drips before they become problems. At the end of each day, we clean up completely so your home stays livable during the project. Protection and cleanup are included in every job because your home should look better when we leave, not like a construction zone.
Yes, we provide detailed written estimates at no cost. We’ll meet with you at your home to assess the project, discuss your preferences, and provide a comprehensive quote that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline. Our estimates include everything needed to complete the job properly, so you won’t see surprise charges later. We take time to explain what’s included and answer any questions you have. Most estimates can be scheduled within a few days of your call, and you’ll have the written quote within 24 hours of our meeting.
Yes, Metanoia Construction is fully licensed and carries comprehensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any work. This protects you from liability if accidents happen and ensures you’re working with a legitimate business that follows proper procedures. We also pull permits when required for exterior work. Being properly licensed and insured isn’t just about meeting requirements, it’s about giving you confidence that you’re working with professionals who take this business seriously.
We provide a written warranty on all completed painting work. Interior paint jobs are typically warranted for two years against defects in workmanship, while exterior work carries a warranty that varies based on the specific materials and conditions. This covers issues like premature peeling, excessive fading, or application problems, but doesn’t cover damage from normal wear or external factors like impact damage. We stand behind our work because we use quality materials and proper techniques. If warranty issues arise, we’ll return to make it right at no additional cost to you.
