"We hired them to do drywall repair and a complete interior house painting. We were so pleased with their communication, the way they prepped each area of the home, the way they cared for all of our furniture and put in back in place, and the way they maintained their schedule. They did a beautiful job throughout the home and kept to schedule! It's never easy to disrupt the entire interior of your home while you're living in it, but they made this process as painless as possible and we were thrilled with the results!"

"John really tries to sell the job but but falls short when his crew is unaware of his vision. The workman are unsupervised and I had to call John in a few times to clarify some specifics. The company has no sander dust extraction tools that other companies I interviewed use and they do not use positive ventilation. The did construct a tent around my kitchen but not before one of the workman brought in a can of spray paint and started touching up raw wood. The workman covered my garage with plastic sheeting when John said that they would build a containment tent. The wife was without use of the washing machine for a week. Because of the lack of dust containment paint dust was tracked everywhere the workman went. They used the downstairs bathroom and the microwave oven. The workman did not use positive ventilation breathing systems while painting and so they were high as kites all the time. The cabinets showed this. All the door and drawer edges were over sprayed and some were not done at all. When they hung the doors they forgot to put the rubber safety tabs back on the doors and all my stiles have screw intentions on them. All in all I think that IM painting needs to regroup. The company needs on the job supervision and they need to update their equipment for safety and the health of workers and also to avoid cross contamination with the house interior. One last thing that really got me steamed. The lead worker got into my upright tool box and took a screw driver to use to do something and left it on the garage floor. Most home owners are unaware of how these guys are really supposed to conduct themselves on a job. This your home and not a construction site. It should be managed as if you lived there. The use of loud mexican music and the use of your cooking equipment should be avoided. I would not hire this company until they grow up a little.."

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance—so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.

Numerous primers on the market will do the job of covering peeling paint. The best primers for peeling paint are bonding or adhesive primers that essentially glue the edges of peeling paint back to the subsurface while providing a smooth, even surface for the new paint coat.

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?

You can apply waterproofing over paint, but you won't get as much protection as you would if you painted the surface with a waterproof paint from the get-go. Not all waterproofing methods are compatible with painted surfaces, and they may not adhere well. This is especially true if the paint is glossy, old, or flaking. Waterproofing sealers are primarily meant to be applied to porous surfaces, like concrete, wood, or brick. 

Yes, paint thinner can damage some surfaces. Specifically, it can cause a lot of damage to laminate flooring if applied incorrectly.
