Questions to Ask Ulta Home

Technical advice on specialty finishes

Nearly all reviews are strongly positive, but there is one 3-star review where a customer disagreed with technical guidance Ulta provided about staining options. This appears to be a difference of opinion rather than a service complaint, but if you have a specialty finish project—like re-staining previously painted surfaces—it may be worth discussing their approach to ensure alignment. Ask them directly: "What's your approach to [your specific finish type], and can you walk me through why you recommend it?"

"I disagree with your statement. Solid stain could be painted over many services, including an already painted wood surface." - Chris T., Google Review (no owner reply)

Questions to Ask Right Track Painting & Sealcoating

Garage floor coating warranty

One older review mentioned difficulty reaching the company for follow-up repairs on a garage floor coating project. While this appears to be an isolated incident, if you're considering floor coatings or similar specialty work, ask directly: "What's your warranty policy for floor coatings, and what's the process if I need touch-ups down the road?"

"Have been trying to reach them for over 2 years now to come back and patch some areas in my garage floor. Cannot get an answer back." - Mal D., Yelp Review (no owner reply)
