Painting creates a protective, decorative finish for your home. But along with the task of painting come little problems that can sometimes take the fun out of an otherwise pleasant experience.

We've assembled some of the most common problems you may encounter along with their causes and possible solutions.

There are listings for both Interior and Exterior problems. Just choose either one and hopefully you'll find a solution.
