"quickly needed help for baseboard & interior wall patching/painting during a full house reflooring project. George and team were responsive, reliable and courteous. They sorted work flow with other contractors to our advantage. Excellent work with attention to detail. I highly recommend George and his team of professionals."

"I interviewed 3 painting companies before choosing NEW LIFE PAINTING. Tim MIller is the owner of NEW LIfe, I knew after meeting Tim that his company was who I wanted to work with. Tim's professioalism and knowledge were what I needed to get the project done. Tony, the crew foreman was here every day and answered any questions that I may have had. I must say that the amazing crew were respectful, friendly and worked very well together. Each day when NEW LIFE left the jobsite it was clean and tidy. NEW LIFE PAINTING, I am grateful to all of you and will hire NEW LIFE PAINTING for any painting projects I will have. I highly recommend NEW LIFE PAINTING"

"Great company and employees. Overestimated the amount of paint needed for the job which customer had to pay for. We will find a way to use up the paint. We would still rehire them."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

You can find chemical and naturally derived paint thinners to remove paint without as much sanding. A heat gun or pressure washer can also remove paint from large areas. However, sanding is often the best way to remove the final bits of paint that remain on the surface.

There are times when you should remove all exterior paint before repainting. This includes when you need to get rid of lead-based paint (which should be done by a pro), or if you need to apply a different finish than what’s already there. Your house may also have too many pre-existing layers of old paint, in which case you’ll be better off getting rid of the old layers first.

If you recently splashed paint on the wrong area of a wooden object, remove it with a solvent or caustic paint stripper. Some paint that has yet to dry may be removable by hand with coarse sandpaper or a plastic scraper. Another trick for removing dried-on paint is rubbing a dab of nail polish remover on the paint to remove it, but avoid touching the bare wood surface.

Some homeowners have luck using pressure washers, but this only works for old or weaker concrete sealants and with very powerful pressure washers. You’ll get better results by pressure washing water-based sealants. However, it’s worth trying on any sealant if you’re hoping for the least toxic, least expensive, and most DIY-friendly option. To try this method, rent or buy the most powerful pressure washer you can find and take several passes at the concrete, completely pressure washing the entire area. You may need to repeat the process multiple times to see results.

Yes, vinegar can remove polyurethane from wood, but it is a slow, inefficient, and inconsistent restoration method. Whatever your intention, it’s best to avoid using vinegar on wood with a polyurethane finish—though it can be an effective cleaner for other wood finishes.
