"While house-sitting at a friends house that was just re-painted, I couldn’t help but look at the painting work that had just been done. The level of detail was incredible. The edges were sharp, crisp and straight. I was very impressed. She ended up giving me the number of Bob (The King of the Painters) Lyon. Bob came out and looked over my house. There was a lot of termite damage, the side garage door needed to be replaced and dry rot was prevalent throughout. Fascia, eaves and large beams were in bad shape. All had peeling paint. Bob has an amazing eye for colors. We settled on the color scheme and Bob even picked out the fabric we chose for the awning we had installed out front. After settling on a price (which was VERY reasonable) we set up the date for work to begin. On the day the crew arrived, the project manager (Mike) introduced me to his crew. Dennis Iloff, Jr. Lopez, Alvin Hernandez and last (but certainly not least) Ricardo “Rickey” Duenas. While Mike was tending to other jobs, Ricardo was my point man. He asked all the right questions, always informed me of what the tasks of the day were going to be and answered all my questions with a smile. This crew was thorough and they all seemed to be having fun while working very hard. I couldn’t be happier with the finished product. Bob Lyon is probably the nicest guy you’ll ever meet and his employees show it too. Give them a try. You will NOT be disappointed."

"Hired these guys to paint the interior and vinyl siding of my house. Let me say this right off the bat: the paint, where it's correct, is gorgeous. The spots that aren't correct though, look like an amateur did them. They had to come back 3 times because at least one spot was always missed. The first time I think I marked off 30 or so spots that needed to be redone. Hell, they even missed an entire section of a room. A month later and I'm still finding spots that were done incorrectly and look pretty poor. They painted the wood surrounding my stairs with latex paint, but they didn't prep the wood properly, so it started peeling off within days. You're supposed to sand and prime the surface first, you can't use latex paint on a urethane coated piece of wood. It simply won't stick. They painted my door and immediately closed it, so the white paint of the frame is now all over the red paint of my door. They left white spots all over the walls where the paint didn't cover correctly. I'll be touching that up myself. There's LARGE blue brush strokes from the walls of the bathroom that covered the white door frame. Another thing I'll have to do myself. They didn't use tape to mask off edges, so all color transitions are wavy and looks poorly/quickly done. The project manager was great to work with, but I feel he's very limited in what he can do based on the higher ups in the company."

"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."

"We hired Greg and the team at Fercho's to paint our home. It needed extensive stucco repairs, including matching of a pattern, and lots of prep work before they could even get started. Other painters told us someone else had to get the place ready to paint. Not Fercho's! They did the whole job start to finish, with an incredible attention to detail. You can see the pride Greg takes in his work! Stucco, soffits, garage door, front and back doors - all perfectly painted - looking like new. They cleaned up at the end of each day - meticulously. We are very happy with the work and the price. We have already started thinking about an interior project... It will be with Fercho's. Our house after Fercho's restored it."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance—so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.

While not all homes built before 1978 contain lead paint, enough do, so you’ll still want to test to be on the safe side. The federal government banned lead-based paint for homes in 1978, but your state may have banned lead before that time. Around 24% of homes built between 1960 and 1977 contained lead-based paint, while 87% of homes built before 1940 contained lead-based paint.

This factor depends on exactly how much paint you remove from your hardwood floors. If it’s just a few small, hardly noticeable spots, refinishing won’t be necessary. However, if you completely strip your floors of paint, you will likely need to sand and finish them. 

Yes, but with caution. A floor grinder is intended to level and polish concrete, so it is a very powerful tool. To remove paint, the floor grinder should be set to 35 square feet per minute or less to minimize the pressure without the use of pocket weights. You might need to go over the surface two times to get any paint that has sunk into the concrete’s pores.
