My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Painting ceilings white

18 years ago

I painted my ceilings white last spring and they all have a grayish cast to them. They are regular trailer ceilings and they soak up the paint. Any one have any suggestions how I can get true white ceilings?
