Frequently Asked Questions
Upon contract sign off and deposit, we start with an initial rough concept (and in some cases a visual reference of a past similar job) to start. We can provide up to 2 revisions inclusive of the cost. Additional revisions are possible at an hourly rate if required.
Yes, we are an insured mural painting business and art gallery. We can provide a COI (Certificate of Insurance) upon contract sign off. If your place of business is required to be included as “additional insured” on our insurance, please send over a sample COI with coverage requirements. We would typically require 3-5 business days notice to generate a COI.
If you're interested in an estimate for graffiti art, here's what we need from you:
Size of the area: Provide us with rough dimensions (length x height) of the surface you want painted.
Painting preferences: Let us know what you want painted and any specific styles or visual references you have in mind. We specialize in various styles including traditional graffiti, abstract imagery, lettering, illustration, photo realism, etc. Feel free to check out our online portfolio for inspiration.
Location and timeline: Tell us where you're located and when you need the work completed.
Budget: If possible, give us an idea of your budget. This helps us tailor our services to meet your needs and provide you with the best possible pricing. For a more accurate quote, please contact us here.
We use top quality spray paint/materials and indoor murals will last decades. Outdoor murals can also last for several years depending on the amount of direct sunlight.
We partner with some media companies for projects where clients are looking for Out of Home Media Landscapes. Otherwise, clients typically arrange the wall space and permits required for our team to hand paint the artwork.
Yes, using spray paint, the smallest size we would suggest is something that is about 3 ft. x 4 ft. (pre-stretched.) We can also purchase primed cloth canvas that is un-stretched that is about 7 ft. tall x however long you would like (in one yard increments.) You can easily install grommets on un-stretched canvas to hang. We can also construct free standing stage flats that can be up to 8 ft. tall in increments of 4 ft. wide.
If you are doing a live event, we can use paint markers and low odor/indoor water based spray paint to minimize the fumes. The standard non-water based aerosol fumes may last up to 24 hours indoors but may go away much quicker if you have windows or ventilation. We recommend that you do not stick around (without a mask) while we are in the process of painting.
There is always a small chance of exterior art work being vandalized although it rarely happens from our experience. We are always open to coming back to fix any artwork that has been defaced at an hourly rate.
Typically, we do not coat murals after its painted as it makes it harder to come back to do touch ups, etc. If the mural is in a high traffic location, we can recommend a clear coat that you can easily cover the mural with. This is very simple to do yourself and will not affect the mural design. We can also do this for you at an additional charge.
We strongly recommend that you go with the specialized spray paint that we provide. We could use spray paint that you supply but we cannot guarantee the quality of the artwork. We also use specialized nozzles for different effects that are not compatible with all brands of spray paint.
For outdoor work, the temperature needs to be at least 35-40 degrees F. It is possible to paint in lower temperatures but it is not recommended. We cannot work in rain or snow unless adequate shelter is provided.
As long as you have permission from the property owner (could be yourself), you do not need a permit to have art work, (yes, graffiti included) on the exterior of your property. (This could vary based on the city we are working in.) If you are painting an advertisement as opposed to public artwork, it may be subject to local signage laws.
