Walls That Look Even and Last
Residential and commercial painting completed throughout Mebane, North Carolina.
When you decide to repaint a room or building in Mebane, the finished surface should look smooth under natural light, with no visible roller marks or uneven coverage along edges. Gaspar Garcia Painting handles both interior and exterior projects for homes and commercial properties across Mebane, from single accent walls to full repaints.
Interior painting includes filling cracks, smoothing rough patches, and applying primer where old paint has worn through or stains have bled through. Exterior painting involves cleaning siding, scraping loose material, and using finishes designed to resist fading and moisture. Both types of work aim for surfaces that look finished and hold up without peeling or chipping within the first year.
If your property in Mebane needs painting work, contact Gaspar Garcia Painting to discuss what the project involves.
How Interior and Exterior Projects Are Completed
Interior work in Mebane begins with protecting floors and furniture with drop cloths and plastic sheeting. Walls are sanded where texture is uneven, and holes from nails or screws are filled with spackle. Primer seals stains or raw drywall, and the finish coat is applied with rollers for large areas and brushes for trim.
Once the paint cures, you will see walls that reflect light evenly and trim lines that stay sharp where the wall meets the ceiling or baseboard. Exterior painting requires more drying time because surfaces must be washed and dried before any coating is applied, but the result is siding that sheds water and resists sun damage.
Commercial projects often involve painting during off hours or coordinating access to different sections of a building. The work does not include replacing rotted wood or fixing structural issues, but it does cover the prep and finishing needed to make surfaces look complete and uniform.
Common Questions Before Work Begins
Most people want to know how much furniture they need to move, how long the paint smell lasts, and whether the work can be done in stages.
How much furniture needs to be moved for interior painting?
You can move furniture to the center of the room and cover it, or clear the space completely if that is easier. Walls need to be accessible, but the room does not have to be empty.
What preparation is required before exterior painting?
Surfaces are pressure washed to remove dirt, mildew, and loose paint. Any remaining loose material is scraped off, and bare spots are primed before the finish coat is applied.
How long does the paint smell stay in a room?
Most interior paints dry to the touch within a few hours and lose their strong smell within a day or two if the room is ventilated. Low-VOC paints used by Gaspar Garcia Painting reduce odor further.
When should exterior painting be scheduled in Mebane?
Dry weather with moderate temperatures works best, typically from late spring through early fall. Rain or high humidity within 24 hours of painting can interfere with curing.
What makes commercial painting different from residential work?
Commercial projects usually cover larger areas, require scheduling around business hours, and use durable finishes for high-traffic spaces. The prep and application methods remain the same.
