"We used Nigel and the Painting Company's service over 6 months ago and would have used them with our most recent project had they been available. We were very pleased with their service and the job they provided us, so much so that they have set a high standard for other painters/contractors we hire.

Nigel came out and did an estimate on our Kitchen, Dining Room, Living Room (walls and ceiling), stair case, bathroom and laundry room. We were happy with the estimate and decided to move forward, he suggested we give him the swatches of our chosen colors as he gets a better deal on the paint because he is a contractor, rather than us picking it up ourselves at the hardware store.

He had two painters working at our place for two days and they did an amazing job. The paint looks fantastic, and they took plenty of time to move all of the furniture to the center of the rooms, they covered all flooring and furniture in plastic and everything was fully protected. They were very friendly and even brought my husband tamales on one of the mornings! There was no mess for us to clean up after they finished the paint job and they regularly checked with us to see how we liked what they had done so far, which as a homeowner, is very reassuring. 

We highly recommend using Nigel and his painters at The Painting Company for any of your paint jobs, they have fair prices and provide a quality result."

"Another perfect job by Raul and his guys. Got the whole house painted, paid extra for a special type of higher grade paint that makes the house water proof. His guys fixed my stucco that was falling apart, fixed two doors that could never close perfectly, and made everyone on my block jealous. I've spent thousands with Raul and eco painting and he will always be my go to guy when I need anything else done. Super friendly, great prices, and an easy going guy. Just give him a call and tell him your ideas and he will work with you through it all. Thanks Raul!"

"Justin and his painters were here on time first thing every morning. Our two story home is quite large with lots of windows. They were quiet, hard working, neat, and very courteous. I highly recommend Frankfather Painting and plan to call them when it s time to paint the interior of our home."

"I hired Jorge and his team to paint the interior of my townhouse before listing it for sale. They were always on time and completed the project without any additional fees. Jorge came back to do some touch-ups after the new carpet was installed and I couldn't have been happier. My realtor was very impressed with the quality and outcome. Jorge is very meticulous, great attention to detail, and the painting turned out even better than I expected. I recently had him do some work at my condo where a cabinet was removed in the laundry room as well as repair a crack in the wall. The end result looks amazing. I will definitely contact him for any future work."

"They did everything right. Attention to detail., keeping the job site clean, careful taping and prep. They painted our newly installed shaker style garage doors. They even painted the surrounding molding, which was not part of the bid. I would not hesitate to hire them again for any painting project."

"We had a great experience with Precision Painting Plus! They painted our entire interior: walls, ceilings, trim. They also put up wallpaper. They were fast, professional, communicative, and friendly. They gave great advice and cleaned up after. We’ve hired a lot of contractors lately, and this has been one of the best experiences. We’ll definitely use them again when we paint our exterior."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

Sanding paint that contains lead is never safe, and sanding modern paints can still be hazardous. However, you can protect yourself by wearing a high-quality respirator during the process or by using a wet-sanding technique. You can wet the wall and then sand or use a wet sanding tool to achieve this.

Professional painters often use a Turpentine-based solution to remove paint, since it can remove oil-based paint as well as acrylics and varnishes. It’s also an organic material derived from tree resin, so it’s less toxic than traditional paint strippers. Consult a professional cabinet refinisher or painter about the best materials to use for paint stripping.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

The list of what removes caulk residue includes rubbing alcohol. In some cases, rubbing alcohol can also help remove water-based caulk. However, old caulk or caulk that’s in layers from years of upkeep and projects might prove to be too much for simple rubbing alcohol and may require a caulk-removing solution from a home improvement store.  

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.
