"Barry and his crew were very meticulous with caulking and tape lines which adds a clean detailed environment. SC was there on time and reasonably priced, knowledgeable and aided in paint and color selections. Completely hands off!!! Would definitely hire again, perhaps to paint the outside next."

"Where to start? Out of the hand full that came out ... Sir Mike saw what was previously done, I think it upset him. I believe he approached the unprimed project as if his own with a purpose to do the best he could using his craft ... The first thing at hand, washing the project down. I have seen many painting jobs ... They paint right over dirt, dust, ash, pollen and ... He needed and wanted a clean slate .... I was very happy to hear this ... He wash down for about 1.50 hrs ... He used a few separate primer and paint ... nOt the magic in the can ... We asked for a specific paint to be used and he procured exactly the request ... We are in a area that can get dusty, windy, hot extremely ... He suggested low sheen, better cleaning than flat ... He works, up and down ... He is fast however he uses safety for him, first ... He were told the amount of time he beat it ... He left his drop cloths on site, but asked if okay? He has a great focus and personality ... Would I recommend him? I surely would, periOd! We are happy, he gave us better ... He fiXed what another left behind, an unprimmed peeling mess ... No care paint company, just sprinkled on paint ... Sir Mike's Printing did very well ... for us ... Other projects, he will be the painter, craftsman for us. He did a great job on purpOse ..."

"Competitively priced. Reliable. Craftsmen. Not only did Fred provide the most affordable bid, but he was also the only paint contractor I could find who knew how to tackle the challenges with this historical home. The crew was amazing, showed up on time, enjoyed their work, took great care of my home and went out of their way to cater to the neighbors. I have the most beautiful home on the block now. I wish I could give more stars."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

Scrape softened caulk with a putty knife or slice hardened caulk with a utility knife. Hard-to-remove caulk generally requires more time exposed to a softening solution, like a commercial product or rubbing alcohol. A few hours to a day later, the softened caulk will come off with the help of common household tools. In many cases, you can grab needle-nosed pliers for caulk with multiple old layers and pull the material off its base. 

Yes, many professionals use non-toxic removers and dust-free sanding techniques.

WD-40 is an effective way to remove glue and other sticky residue from many surfaces, including wood. Spray the WD-40 on the area, allow the product to sit for a few minutes, then carefully wipe away the residue. As with other adhesive removal methods, test the WD-40 on an inconspicuous spot first to ensure it won’t damage the finish. 

Yes, a magic eraser can remove candle wax. You can use it to remove all the candle wax from start to finish. Another option is to remove all large clumps with a dull knife and then pull out your magic eraser to finish the job. However, while the results can be impressive, a magic eraser shouldn’t be used on all surfaces since it can potentially damage them. If you try this method, test a small, hidden spot first and proceed cautiously.

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.
