Depending on the job, we use either oil based or water based paints. If it’s for surfaces that experience a lot of wear and tear, we will use an oil based paint due to its durability. If it’s for your interior walls and ceiling, a water based paint will do the trick, and it will dry faster as well.
Yes, we still use oil based paints, especially on property exteriors, cabinets, doors, trims, and furniture. The primary differences between oil and latex based paints are drying time and durability. With oil based paints, you can enjoy increased damage resistance and a smoother finish. With latex based paints, you can expect shorter turnaround times.
If we’re painting dark on light, 2 coats of paint are included. If we’re painting light on dark, up to 6 coats are included so that we can achieve the color you want.
We offer eco friendly, non toxic paint options to complete your painting project. Plus, we make use of leftover paints for moldings and trims and dispose of everything the right way.
Our top quality paint jobs will typically last you for 10 years. Still, if you want to maintain their pristine condition, we recommend scheduling paint touch ups every 3 to 5 years.

Generally, you would not need to prime an already painted wall, but at Ott Brother's Painting, we make sure your walls are clean before adding a new layer.
