"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."

"Francisco and his crew were fantastic! They painted our Master bedroom and bathroom which was a very difficult because they had to cover dark paint with white, but they were able to achieve the job to PERFECTION! Not only were they knowledgeable, professional and super skilled, they were also respectful, fair and kind. I plan to use them again and would highly recommend them for any type of painting job."

"I received 3 bids for painting the exterior of our home and Forest Painting was about 20% less than the other two companies. I don't normally take the lowest bid on my purchases but the attention to detail on specific items of the proposal, as well as the positive approval reference I called persuaded me to use Forest Painting. Daniel (the owner) was very accessible and professional in communicating with me regarding his timing of starting and finishing our project. His team of painters were always on time each day and were great to work with. There were a few extra repair items that needed to be done for things that were not visible during the initial inspection and I was given verbal and written quotes which I felt were reasonably priced and the guys did a great job completing the work. The entire job was finished on time and the house looks fantastic. I would highly recommend and use Forest Painting again and will be using them for some interior painting in the near future."

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

Soot can be harder to remove compared to other types of stains given its acidic nature. It can also cause underlying paint to peel off during the cleaning process. If your soot issue is a result of smoke damage, it’s recommended you call a pro to help remove it versus doing it yourself.

If the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it. Lead is toxic when dust particles or flakes from peeling lead paint are ingested. If people are not in the area with the lead paint, it may be safe to leave it in place. You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.

You can apply waterproofing over paint, but you won't get as much protection as you would if you painted the surface with a waterproof paint from the get-go. Not all waterproofing methods are compatible with painted surfaces, and they may not adhere well. This is especially true if the paint is glossy, old, or flaking. Waterproofing sealers are primarily meant to be applied to porous surfaces, like concrete, wood, or brick. 

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.
