"What a FABOULOUS experience! Jonathan the owner, was quick to respond and visited the site the first day we spoke to review the project and prepare the quote. The job was interior painting of a 2-story house with high (20â ceilings) and the installation of a built-in floor to ceiling bookcase. Jonathan was not just responsive and honest, but he always went the extra mile. He was quick to size up the project and provide recommendations on how to be cost effective without sacrificing the look of the finished project. They may not be the cheapest but they were very competitive and did high quality work. The entire crew was wonderful to work with throughout the process. Every employee was proficient and professional which stems from Jonathan himself. Jonathan was very accommodating, and very good at communicating. You will not find nicer or more conscientious people to work with. A special shout out to Brad who was the project leader. He and his crew were always in contact with the status of the project. There was nothing they couldnâ t do, including replacing all the hardware. They were professional, polite, neat, and very knowledgeable. We are thrilled with the results. We feel like we have a new house! We will definitely hire Cani Painting again."

"Excellent! We have vaulted ceilings, and we refreshed the walls, ceilings, and trim throughout the interior. Tom suggested painting the outdated 80's wood fireplace trim a fresh white to modernize the look, and it looks great! The crew finished the work in two days, and were respectful and prompt. Would hire again next time we need paint-work."

"Daniel started the job promptly and even worked part of a weekend to get it done on time. He showed up as agreed, answers his phone, and responds to texts. He uses quality materials and knows what he is doing. It was a whole unit job: walls, ceilings,, closet interiors, bathrooms, kitchen. What a difference. He may be slightly higher than some, but it is the price of quality. Thanks!"

"Painter did an amazing job! Very professional and demonstrated a highly detailed paint job. He was on time and I really enjoyed how he brought his own color wheel and equipment and was able to consult with me on the best colors. He walked me though his process and then completed the job fast and efficiently. I love how the project turned out and it’s definitely worth the price. The price is very affordable because of his value he brings and years of experience and job that is highly professional. I will gladly recommend him to anyone! Derrick is a real pleasure to work with and anyone would be happy to have his services."

"Just finished our kitchen and bathroom remodel with Ocean Seven Builders and happy we went with them. Ron helped us through the whole process and made it simple. He was always available when we had questions and gave honest advice when we were choosing materials. The kitchen looks open and bright now, and the bathroom finally feels updated instead of old and cramped. Solid work and good people."

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.

  • What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?

  • Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?

  • How do you test for lead paint?

  • What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?

  • What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?

  • Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?

Yes, you can paint over old exterior paint, but success depends on the condition of the existing paint and proper surface preparation. If the previous coating is in good shape (not cracked, peeling, or flaky), you can paint over it with less prep work. However, for the most durable and professional-looking results, follow these key preparation steps:

  • Clean the Surface: Thoroughly clean the exterior to remove all dirt, grime, and mildew. A pressure washer can be very effective for this.

  • Scrape and Sand: If the old paint is peeling, cracked, or flaky, you must scrape off all loose paint. After scraping, sand the surface to create a smooth, even base for the new paint. Sanding is especially important for wood siding.

  • Apply Primer: Using a quality exterior primer is highly recommended. It ensures the new paint adheres properly, improves durability, and provides a uniform finish. If you are painting a lighter color over a dark one, a tinted primer will help cover the old color more effectively.

Some brands offer paint-and-primer-in-one products for convenience. Taking the time to prepare the surface properly will not only increase your home's curb appeal but also help protect your siding and extend its life.

While the EPA provides guidelines for homeowners to perform DIY lead paint removal, it is a risky process and generally not recommended due to serious health risks and strict regulatory requirements. The process requires precise safety precautions, such as wearing a respirator and protective eyeglasses, creating sealed exits, and using a HEPA vacuum for cleanup. To ensure the job is done safely, effectively, and in compliance with regulations, it is highly recommended to hire a professional lead abatement company. Certified professionals have the necessary training, experience, and specialized equipment (like chemical strippers and HEPA vacuums) to handle and dispose of hazardous materials safely.

Using a wire brush, forcefully scrub the surface to remove paint from metal. You’ll want to remove any lingering rust, too. For larger areas with caked-on rust, you may need to use a wire brush drill attachment. If the paint still won’t budge, apply a chemical paint stripper to the area and scrape off the paint, after following the paint stripper’s instructions.

The biggest issue with painting your interior walls with exterior paint isn’t the way the paint looks or performs—it’s the lack of ventilation. The higher quantities of VOCs in exterior paint will have a harder time dispersing in an enclosed space, so do everything you can to direct them out—like turning on a fan and opening your windows and doors. Afterward, you can simply prime and redo your walls with interior paint, and no one will know the difference.
