"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!"

"Good result on the interior painting requested. Our house looks great. Their preparation was good to see that things were done correctly. The crew were gentleman & aimed to please. My only comment was the finish was a 'bit rushed' and they packed-up and left for another job it seemed absent a bit of clean-up on bathroom surfaces etc. Overall a good experience and we would recommend their work."

"
The whole process from the time we met for the estimate until the job finished was very satisfactory.  Mr. Lopez has met the set deadline which was important to me since I had to have other work done on my new home before I could move in.
I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Professional Painting to my family and friends.

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

While the EPA provides guidelines for homeowners to perform DIY lead paint removal, it is a risky process and generally not recommended due to serious health risks and strict regulatory requirements. The process requires precise safety precautions, such as wearing a respirator and protective eyeglasses, creating sealed exits, and using a HEPA vacuum for cleanup. To ensure the job is done safely, effectively, and in compliance with regulations, it is highly recommended to hire a professional lead abatement company. Certified professionals have the necessary training, experience, and specialized equipment (like chemical strippers and HEPA vacuums) to handle and dispose of hazardous materials safely.

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.

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.

When determining the correct size of replacement windows you need for your home, you must take the horizontal and vertical measurements from inside, not outside. To measure the window horizontally, place the tape measure across the two inside window jambs. To take a vertical measurement, place the tape measure between the sill and head jamb.

Sanding surfaces, repairing damage, cleaning thoroughly, and using quality primers are all steps you can take for exterior home painting.
