LIVERMORE — Host, Sarah Rutan: Prior to sealing an area of your home, make sure you’re using the appropriate type of caulking for the application. Today we’re in Livermore with Diamond Certified Expert Contributor Nick Capurro of Majestic Painters to learn more.
Diamond Certified Expert Contributor, Nick Capurro: Hello. A common question I get from clients is what type of caulking should they use to touch up their house or fill gaps and seams. There’s two types of caulking. There is interior caulking and exterior caulking. They are clearly labeled on the package when you go to the store. Interior caulking is for things like around sinks and cabinets and flooring. Exterior caulking is for joints and either masonry or in wood. The other big deal about caulking is some are paintable and some are not paintable. You do not want to use not paintable caulking on the exterior of your home. That is only for around faucets and sinks.

Video: Choosing the Right Paint Colors for Your Home


I'm Amber and my expert tip is this I
recommend that you look for repeating
colors in your
home you look at your furniture
artwork and different accessories that
you've purchased over the years because
there will be a color that repeats also
I'd recommend um an inspiration photo if
you have a Pinterest board or any or
maybe maybe there's a piece of artwork
that you just absolutely
love and I don't a lot of people don't
know this but you can go to the paint
store and get a paint sample you don't
have to get a whole
gallon a sample size it's about this
big and then the brush I like to use is
a 2
in the reason for that is because it
fits right in here and you can just hold
a little pot of paint
and then paint the sample on the
wall also it's a good idea to label it
if you have multiple samples is with
this blue tape because it does not take
the paint off
