How is my furniture and items protected from the paint?
On interiors, after you have removed your delicate items, all areas or remaining items will be covered with clean drop cloths or plastic sheeting. Exteriors, shrubs, and surrounding areas will be protected so that no evidence of paint splatter or paint peelings remains.
