"Mike Samuelsen Painting did a great job, cleaning, prepping, priming and painting the entire exterior of our house. Mike is detail-oriented and he fixed numerous cracks on our stucco walls. His careful work made us feel like he was treating our house like it was his own. I highly recommend Mike. -Jake J."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

Some methods of removing paint from metal that use physical force, like scraping or grinding, may damage the metal. Other methods like chemical strippers or acids are unlikely to damage the metal underneath, but take care using any method to strip paint to minimize the chance of damage.

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. 

Penetrating sealer seeps into concrete pores to protect it from moisture and staining, cracking, and mold caused by water. This means you cannot remove penetrating sealers like topical sealers. The good news is that penetrating sealant doesn’t have to be removed before resealing, as most topical sealers must. Instead, you’ll want to buy a compatible penetrating sealant (often the same kind already in the concrete) and apply it. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Costs range from $2 to $7 per square foot, depending on surface type, paint layers, and removal method.

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.
