"Nile and his crew were outstanding.  Very easy to do business with.  Nile returned calls and emails promptly.  His team of painters arrived promptly each day of this three-day job and communicated their plan so I would know when they would arrive and approximately when they would finish.  The quality of the work is top notch and, for the scope of work being done, I think the price was very reasonable.  I've always done my own painting but after this experience I think I'll hang up my brush and just call Nile.

"We contracted King of the Painters to paint the exterior of our home in Clairemont after reading customer reviews about their services. We met with the companies owners who were very helpful in helping us select a new house paint color scheme. The workers were on time and cleaned up the work site each afternoon. We had a few issues with the job and called them to report the issues and they were very quick to come out to correct the discrepancies. We would recommend using them to anyone."

"Saul and his crew did an excellent job painting the exterior of our house. They were clean, fast and paid attention to details. They power washed, repaired stucco, caulked all joints, masked, used drop clothes everywhere and painted stucco and trim. All painted lines were sharp and clean. They didn’t even damage any roof tiles. Couldn’t be happier and I highly recommend them."

"Geoff and his team were very meticulous, professional, experienced and really good people. We were very impressed with all the prep work done before the actual painting of the exterior was started. We highly, very highly recommend Adesion painting and plan to use them for future projects."

"We can not speak highly enough about Ben Lypps, both as a professional and as an individual. He does stellar work, paying very close attention to detail and going over and above to ensure the job is done correctly. Our home required a great deal of preparation and repair work prior to painting, which turned out to be more than Ben had originally anticipated, but he honored the price on the contract. He never complained about the extra work. Ben is super conscientious about showing up on time, and cleaning up after he left. He is a quiet, kind and considerate man, making him a pleasure to be around. We will use Ben for all of our future painting needs!"

"As a contractor, I have hired Alex and Ruben for numerous jobs over a 3-year period. The jobs they completed for me were interior drywall/painting, exterior stucco repairs/painting, power washing, fence and window wrap staining, garage slab epoxying, light carpentry work (baseboards, wall extensions, door casing, and fence repairs), LVP installation, and hanging barn doors. They always showed up on time ready to work, did excellent work, and most importantly were wonderful with my customers. Since moving back to Seattle I still have customers reaching out to me and am continuing to refer them to AR Coatings due to the excellent work and customer service they have always provided. I recommend Alex and Ruben for any job from the list above."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

One of the most significant benefits of hiring a professional painter is that they complete the task faster and better. Generally, it takes about a day to paint a room, depending on dry time. If you're painting your entire house or the exterior of your home, that's a lot of time spent with a paintbrush in hand. Outsourcing this project to a painting pro will save you countless hours.

Other benefits of hiring a professional painter include:

  • Quality experience with painting 

  • Assistance with choosing colors

  • Using the right tools for the job

  • Extensive product knowledge

Professionals may use a variety of methods to remove old paint from surfaces, often depending on the size and complexity of the surface. Paint scraping in combination with a chemical paint stripper is the most common method, but experts might also use heat or steam to loosen everything before peeling the paint off. Some might just sand off the old paint if the surface is relatively flat and easily accessible.

You can paint over lead paint, or “encapsulate” it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a lead paint removal method as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an “encapsulant” from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.

It’s best to use a slightly slower-working paint remover that is safer to use, such as mineral spirits, because the strongest spray paint removers are often also the most toxic. Many of these products contain dangerous chemicals, such as methylene chloride, which the EPA banned for most uses in April 2024 after it was established as a major carcinogen.

Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:

  • Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot

  • Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project

  • Encapsulation: $4 per square foot

  • Enclosure: $10 per square foot

  • Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot
