Quick answer

What does painting cover?

We paint interiors and exteriors across Oakhurst and the Township of Ocean, including cabinet refinishing. Preparation is the majority of the work and the reason a finish lasts — scraping, washing, filling and priming before anything else happens.

— Overview

How this job usually goes

Paint fails from underneath, not from the top. Applied over chalk, damp or unkeyed gloss it will look right for a season and wrong for years. Nobody photographs the preparation, which is precisely why it is the corner most often cut.

What we check first

  • Preparation is the majority of the work — scraping, washing, filling and priming before topcoat.
  • Paint over chalk, damp or unkeyed gloss looks right for a season and wrong for years.
  • Cabinet painting is largely degreasing and keying — the primer choice stops chips at the first catch.

  • Interior room painting
  • Ceiling painting
  • Exterior painting and touch-up

Locally

Why this comes up here

Exterior paint on shore-facing elevations fails faster from salt air and wind-driven rain — Long Branch, Neptune, Middletown bayfront and coastal Oakhurst properties often need the entry point found before repainting, not just another coat over failing substrate.

Browse all FAQs
Do you paint kitchen cabinets?

Yes, and it is largely a preparation job. Degreasing, keying and the right primer are what stop cabinet paint chipping off the first time a door catches a ring.

Is primer really necessary?

Over bare, repaired, stained or glossy surfaces, yes. Skipping it is the most common reason a job that looked fine at handover fails within two years.

  • The first job Multi-Skilled Handyman did for me was to replace our tiny mail box with a bulky secure mailbox in our already built brick post. The outcome was fabulous. It looks like the wall and mailbox were built at the same time. Since then, Multi-Skilled Handyman has come over every six weeks. Each time, I simply hand over our Honey Do list and know with great confidence that everything will be done to amazing perfection.

  • Multi-Skilled Handyman is totally awesome and definitely an honest handyman! He came recommended to us and we called to have him look at the pergola over our patio to maybe replace some of the wood. He said that it wouldn’t be worth it for us to do now, that we should just wait and replace the whole thing. We were impressed with his honesty.

  • Great communication from Multi-Skilled Handyman! Very easy to work with and coordinate scheduling. Multi-Skilled worked really hard, cleaned up each day before he left, and did quality work. We had carpeting removed on the third floor, sub floor repaired, and a new laminate floor installed.

  • Multi-Skilled Handyman installed two porch railings for me. Very amiable and responsive reception by Multi-Skilled. Mike could not have been more responsible and knowledgeable in installing the railings. Will ask them again to help out when I need trustworthy individuals in my home. Thank you!
