The Ohio Painting Company is a leading painting company. In a recent update, the company shared strategies for transforming outdoor spaces with paint. In a website post, The Ohio Painting Company shared strategies for transforming outdoor spaces with paint.

The painters Cincinnati [https://www.google.com/maps?cid=445655339282956025] mentioned that the first strategy for transforming outdoor spaces with paint is by using a cohesive color palette. Choosing a color scheme based on the existing elements in the outdoor space can create a harmonious and visually appealing look. For instance, if the outdoor furniture already has a certain color, it would be wise to choose a complementary shade for the walls or other surfaces.

The painting contractors Cincinnati [https://bnccnews.com/2024/05/07/bringing-vibrancy-to-cincinnati-homes-the-art-of-house-painting] noted that using patterns is another effective strategy for transforming outdoor spaces with paint. Painting patterns on walls, floors, or furniture can add a distinctive touch to any outdoor area. Stripes, herringbone, or even simple dots can bring a playful and whimsical feel to an otherwise bland outdoor space. Choosing patterns that complement the space and do not overwhelm it is essential.

Lastly, the outdoor painters Cincinnati [https://www.ohiopainting.com/natures-playground-unleashing-adventure-at-eden-park/] said that using textures is an often overlooked strategy for transforming outdoor spaces with paint. Many outdoor paints come with added textures, such as sand or stone, which can create a tactile and interesting look. Textured paint can be used on surfaces such as walls or even on pots and planters to add dimension and visual interest. Adding texture can also help disguise imperfections or cracks in surfaces.

On October 11, 360 Painting, a Chelsea business specializing in a range of painting services, celebrated a significant milestone with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at Ugly Dog Distillery.

AUGUSTA, Ga. Workers with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Savannah District, at J. Strom Thurmond Project have begun work to inspect and re-paint approximately 50 miles of the existing boundary line trees with bright orange paint, normally a 4-inch band around half of each tree. The work will continue through the autumn and winter and wrap up before spring arrives.

R&D Maintenance Services, a contractor with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, uses bright orange paint to make boundary line witness trees more visible and easier to identify, as well as trimming heavy brush to clear the boundary line between witness trees. This routine boundary maintenance does not move present property lines. The work makes existing property lines more visible. Workers scrape old paint off the trees and apply fresh paint on witness trees to mark the boundary line. If in-ground boundary survey pins are not visible, workers will dig where pins were placed to expose them.

This year, crews will start work in Lincoln County near Double Branches Road, by the Knox Boy Scout Camp and end north of Highway 378, near Dunaway. The work will encompass boundary line in Pleasant View Estates, Maxim Village, Maxim, Wells Creek, Lakeview, Long Leaf, Joy Acres, Whitstone, Parton, Azalea and Dunaway Estates Subdivisions and Soap Creek Marina.

Painted trees are a guide to locating the physical boundary pins installed in the ground, Heather Killips, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Thurmond Lake shoreline chief ranger, said. When buying property or planning to build on your land adjacent to public property, a professional survey is a good investment. Monument pins should never be disturbed from their permanent locations. If you dont see a pin, please call our office so we can help you and correct the situation.

Contractors will complete the work on foot with hand tools. In most cases, workers will avoid crossing onto private property. In the event the contractor cannot access public land without first crossing over private property, all efforts will be made to contact the owner for permission, and to avoid impacts to private property. To make the boundary line less obtrusive in adjacent subdivisions, the witness tree blaze width is reduced to 2 inches and painted on one quarter of the tree. The marked trees do not delineate the exact boundary; instead, they witness the approximate boundary line. The exact line can only be located by surveying the monuments and pins.

Its important to know the location of the boundary line when removing trees or vegetation from private property, Killips said. Its illegal to remove trees from public land without a permit. Its like going on your neighbors property and removing their trees. If trees are removed without permission, the penalty can be a combination of fines and a requirement to replace trees.

Adjacent property owners should remove any personal property items which may have wandered across the government line, and pets should not be unattended on public land, especially when workers are present. For questions or concerns call the Thurmond Lake office at 800-533-3478, ext. 1140.

Starting Jan. 1, Worcester County landfills will increase the tipping fee for dumped refuse from $70 per ton to $80, and add a $20 removal charge for each paint or petroleum-product can.

At the commissioners meeting on Nov. 7, members voted 6-1 to approve a request from the public works department to amend the new fees into the Worcester County Solid Waste Enterprise Funds Fiscal Year 2024 operating budget. Commissioner Joe Mitrecic voted against the change because of the can-dumping fee.

Director of Public Works Dallas Baker said at the meeting that local hauling companies asked for the change in the refuse tipping fee because it would streamline the process.

Right now, when people come up (and) dump their waste, we charge different rates for refuse, for construction demolition, for some various other things, Baker said. The $80 will make it consistent with pretty much 90 percent of the material thats dumped.

As the system is now, after a truck dumps a load that is half refuse and half construction demolition, landfill workers must verify the cost based on the different rates associated with different dumped materials, Baker said. Haulers then have to return to the landfill to pay.

The haulers are interested in trying to get in and out of the landfill as quick as possible, Baker said.

Baker said that the $20 fee for paint and petroleum-product cans comes in response to an increased number of the cans getting dumped at county landfills, while the cans are not allowed to be disposed there.

The fee is an attempt to discourage illegal dumping and also helps pay for the extra labor that landfill workers contribute when theyre forced to remove the cans, Baker said.

Baker said public works would have a proper place to unload the cans without charging the $20 fee.

Mitrecic said that while he agrees with the tipping fee increase, he thinks that the fee would instead motivate contractors to dump cans in municipal trash receptacles instead.

No disrespect to those guys up there on the hill because they do a great job, but I dont really see them jumping out and picking up paint cans as opposed to picking up tires, Mitrecic said.

Tires are not allowed to be dumped in landfills and must be removed as well.

Mitrecic said he would not support the motion because he thinks the paint can problem could be solved another way.

Baker said hauling companies have told him that they try to tell contractors not to put illegal material in dumpsters, but some contractors hide the items under landfill-allowed refuse anyway.

Weve been having commercial haulers bringing in 20 and 40 yard bins half filled with paint cans and dumping them large scale, Baker said.

The Maryland Department of the Environment could fine the landfill if it found that these kinds of cans were being dumped there, he said.

Baker said that if haulers tell landfill personnel they have paint cans, the workers will direct them to another area to drop off the cans, and in that case the haulers would not be charged a fee.

I understand what youre up against but I also understand that if you ever put a 40-yard dumpster out in front of a job site, you could end up with grills, lawn chairs, paint cans and whatever else anybody in the neighborhood happens to have that they want to get rid of, Mitrecic said.

Mitrecic said that educating haulers and contractors would be a better option.

Baker said that public works could send educational letters to haulers, as well as post information on the county website and social media. However, Baker said that recently public works warned a company to stop dumping illegal items, and the company dumped more the next day.

Id much rather take that approach. The message just isnt getting through, Baker said.

Baker said that since the changes goes into effect Jan. 1, contractors and haulers have a two-month buffer to learn about the incoming fee changes, and dumpsters that are currently on construction sites likely wouldnt be affected.
