Yes it does. The moisture levels in the air can greatly affect the outcome of an interior paint project when spraying trim and doors. The direct sunlight onto the freshly painted areas can also create issues such as cracking, bubbling or peeling paint. Even when it comes into your home through the windows, it can cause fading. Many types of weather create many variables of how the paint is going to be affected. Painting exterior when it's too cold can cause the paint to powder, caused by freezing. This happens when the top layer of paint dries but underneath is still wet. At night the temperature drops and the wet paint then freezes causing it to break down and within a year start to peel off. You will be left with a powdery surface that is easy to recognize. With rain, if it falls directly onto a freshly painted surface, the run off can cause the colour to bleed out and stain underlying surfaces. Depending on the dry time, the rain basically washes the paint off. If this happens, it is important to get a hose and hose down the area until the color is gone before it dries. So, to sum it all up - Yes, weather affects our work, but being smart about the application process can prevent any issues.

We’d be happy to! We can replace your existing door hinges with new soft-close hinges, and we can add soft-close to your drawers as well. (There are some door and drawer types that don’t allow this modification)
No, generally you don't need to empty your cupboards. We use Festool "Dust-free" sanders, so dust is kept to a minimum. You can keep your kitchen in use while you're waiting for your newly painted cabinet doors and drawers. However, we do recommend you remove anything fragile that you don't want broken or can't replace.

The adage that you get what you pay for couldn’t be truer than when you are considering a skilled cabinet painting company.
Is the scope of work being quoted comparable? Is it apples to apples or apples to bananas? For example, is the quote for one or two coats of paint, a spray finish, high quality materials?
