Proper paint coverage means there shouldn’t be any areas of thin coverage or shadowing of the previous paint colour. After 30 years in the industry it’s easy for us to look at a surface and instantly see that it doesn’t have the full coverage that it needs. Quite often we can see the cut in areas that have paint sparsely applied are missed within the rolled areas of the walls and have shadowing of the previous colour. There is no scenario where one coat of paint is acceptable, no matter how expensive or high quality the paint is. A minimum of two coats of paint is what is required in almost all situations to give adequate and full paint coverage. There are times when more than two coats are required. This is most common when there is a drastic colour change, usually applying a very light over a dark colour or when choosing a very vibrant or rich colour.

It’s been said that it would be more accurate to call a painter a professional sander, or at least a good painter. Sanding is one of the most overlooked aspects of painting preparation, it’s a large part of what makes up a quality paint job. Each time a surface is painted without being sanded or sanded properly it adds to the demise of the surface aesthetics. Depending on the circumstances it can also lead to paint failure. By the time a house is ten or twenty years old it can look dreadful if it’s had one bad paint job after another. Sanding the walls, trim work and doors prior to painting ensures a smooth and uniform finish. Any past drips, runs or sags if there are any present in the painting should be sanding out of the walls, trim work and doors and an overall sanding removes any anomalies and excess texture that may be present in previously applied coatings.
The preparation for painting can take a significant amount of time If the surfaces being painted are in poor condition. The walls should be inspected for nicks, scratches and dings. They should be filled and sanded along with any unwanted nail and screw holes from pictures or artwork that were previously hung. Poorly done patching can cause more issues than not patching at all. The tendency of an unskilled person is to over apply the patching compound. If these areas are not sanded out properly it leaves behind raised and uneven areas on the wall. It’s not uncommon to find patches like this that get painted over and over with layers of paint without being addressed. When someone finally decides to fix the walls it can take a lot of sanding and re-patching to get them looking good again. There can be situations where the walls are in very bad condition and require an extensive amount of patching. It takes time and patience to fill and sand all the imperfections in rooms like the one shown in the photo below. The extra effort is well worth it when you see how much better the walls look after they have been repaired and repainted.Caulking is an important part of the painting process and there’s a skill to applying it. It’s used to conceal gaps and cracks and add to the overall quality of the paint job by giving it a seamless finish. There’s no such thing as a good looking paint job that’s applied over a back caulking application. Caulking is applied within trim work joints and the joints where the walls meet up with the baseboards, the door and window casings and crown mouldings. Caulking should be done before the painting, otherwise it can discolour and become a magnet for dirt and dust collection.
Anything that can easily be removed should be, such as a switch plate, outlet covers and door knobs. Anything that has to be left in place is protected from paint, and a good painter knows how to paint around these items without leaving highly visible brush marks.
