"The Joses—Junior and Senior—along with the on-site manager, Elvis, took great care of us in painting our nearly 100 year old duplex home. They finished ahead of schedule and did a fantastic job following our more-complicated-than-usual historic painting plan. Our building looks so good that I have been asked by multiple neighbors who did the amazing paint job. I have referred all of them to Jose!"

"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!"

Customers say: True professional

"Diego was fantastic with the job from start to finish. He went above and beyond, including offering to paint my home on a day he was planning to take off, going to different paint store locations to get the right match, upgrading the paint quality, and sending me updates of progress throughout the day. Couldn't have asked for a better outcome of the paint job itself. Would 100% use again and recommend to anyone looking for quality, affordable painting services."

"After receiving several quotes, Jose from Premier Pro Painting came in with the most affordable quote, and his quality of work was outstanding! His professionalism, friendliness, communication and commitment to being on time met our expectations, by far. Not only does he paint exterior and interior, he also paints cabinets and does drywall work. I highly recommend Premier Pro Painting to anyone searching for quality work. Thank you Jose and Ciola for a beautiful job, well done!"

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Costs depend on paint type, surface condition, labor, and required prep work for repainting.

In many cases, professionals can completely remove certain types of smoke damage from walls and ceilings, but it’s only possible if the damage is minor. For more extensive damage from major fires, you’ll likely need to replace the damaged materials entirely. Some items, like upholstered furniture, are much trickier to clean and might need to be replaced even if the smoke damage is minimal.

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a chance that any paint on your hardwood floors could be lead paint—especially if it was already there when you moved in. Because lead is toxic, hiring a licensed pro to remove it is mandatory. The average price for professional lead paint removal ranges from $1,500 to $5,300 and depends on the scope of the project.

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