Zelada’s Painting recommends using the best-in-class materials, but our clients ultimately select the branch and brand at their discretion.

Zelada’s Painting always recommends the best-in-class products for better results and longevity of our services. The risks with using lower-end products include poor color retention, shorter lifespan resulting in frequent need to paint, use more products, and simply won’t look as good.

Our estimators and on-site project leaders actively communicate with each other and are always available to our clients, ensuring our clients’ visions are achieved successfully.

We start by cleaning the worksite to eliminate any particles or substances on the surface of interest. We begin by masking, repairing any requested damages, and adequately preparing the surface and job site, followed by priming. Finally, we apply the paint, unmask, and complete the project by cleaning the job site.

Zelada’s Painting follows the two-coat industry standard to ensure proper coverage and longevity of the end product.

It depends on the surface of interest, but spray painting is the fastest way to paint large areas (such as exterior walls) or surface areas with intricate details.

Painting is like the cherry on top of the cake; it comes last. Zelada’s Painting recommends that clients start the painting process at the end or near the end of other services provided by other contractors. We are often a job site where we have installed drywall and painted surfaces. Either electricians, plumbers, or flooring contractors have to open up holes or unintentionally cause nicks or marks on an already finished surface. In addition, high traffic in hallways and rooms might tamper with Zelada’s Painting estimated completion date. In other words, trades performed simultaneously with painting will intervene in our goal of providing the high-quality finish you deserve; it takes more time and may result in additional charges to do patches and touch-ups.

There’s no exact answer; all projects vary case by case due to factors unique to the projects. Salient factors that highly influence paint’s lifespan include the environment, quality of paint, and adequate surface preparation. In less harsh conditions, high-end products last between 7-15 years. An excellent way to increase paint performance is to hire a trustworthy company that has proper surface preparation, application methods of products, and the usage of medium to high-end products.

Several factors come into play when answering this question, mainly the environment. We highly recommend frequent touch-ups, cleaning, and maintenance to keep your surfaces looking their absolute best and extend their lifespan.

Ideally, during summer to ensure optimal drying conditions promote more excellent adhesion and thus the lifespan of the applied products.

Steel or aluminum garage doors come from the factory with a durable finish, sometimes called “baked enamel” or “powder coated.” This factory finish will typically last for a long time and require very little maintenance. Potential reasons why you may need to paint your garage door include the following: the existing paint is wearing out (chalking, rusting, peeling), the house has been repainted, and the garage doors no longer match, the place looks drab with too much of the same color and the garage doors could provide an attractive contrast, or you are ready for a change in the look of your house but wish to keep the same garage door. Whatever reasons you may have to paint your garage doors, Zelada’s Painting is here to help! However, if you paint over the baked enamel, it will need to be maintained every 5 to 10 years, depending on the environment.
