Frequently Asked Questions By Our customers
Can You Paint a Brick House?
Yes, you can have your brick house painted! You will get a clean, uniform, and modern look that you can customize. Because of our short, cool winters in Sugar Land, there isn’t too much expanding and contracting of the brick that could damage a nice paint job.
There are a few considerations to keep in mind, however, and it is definitely not a DIY job. Your brick walls will need regular maintenance to keep it looking its best, including regular cleaning for light colors.
And once you paint, you’ll probably want to stick to the aesthetic, as it isn’t very easy to go back to bare brick. There is also a lot of prep work involved with a brick paint job, so you’ll want to leave it to the pros.
How Often Should You Paint Your House?
Painting your home is not just for aesthetics–outside, it also serves the purpose of protection. Therefore, it’s generally recommended that you paint it every five to ten years. You will also probably want to consider repainting if it’s time to sell, you need to re-caulk or patch anywhere, or the old paint job just looks faded or flaky.
Can You Paint Vinyl Siding On a House?
Yes, you can have your vinyl siding painted, and it might even be a good alternative to replacing older vinyl. You don’t have to be stuck with the material’s original drab color. It is a hard job to do yourself, so you’ll probably want to call in an expert in exterior painting services.
The proper type of paint must be selected in addition to the right color shade, and the material must be properly cleaned before the painting starts.
How Do You Choose House Paint Colors?
Whether you’re wanting to paint your home’s interior or exterior, there are an overwhelming number of options. Your personal preference factors in, but then you might have to consider the rest of your home, the appearance of your neighborhood, possible trends, what is out of date, dominant shades, accents, and so much more.

Can You Paint Over Wallpaper?
You can paint over wallpaper, but you probably shouldn’t. The adhesive could easily unstick and ruin the appearance of your beautiful new paint job. Additionally, seams may show through the paint. At 360’ Painting, we can remove wallpaper before beginning to paint so that you will achieve the best results.
