"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."

"They were quick and efficient, very professional and great at communication. The project was enormous, the entire interior of our home ceiling to baseboards, and they got it done in a week. There were some shortcuts taken, painting over some outlet covers and not sanding the doors first, but they came back and corrected most of the issues in a timely manner."

"Cody and Straightline Painting did an excellent job painting the interior of our home. I received several bids but Cody was the best at following up and answering all of my questions. He was able to fit us into his schedule quickly and accommodated our timing. The first day of the job, Cody and his team showed up on time and came prepared. After applying paint to one wall, I decided to change the color. Cody was extremely patient and flexible while I determined the final color. Once I had made the decision, he moved quickly and secured the new paint and got to work. Straightline Painting was very careful to not damage my floors and wore booties upon entering. They kept their supplies in one area and were very organized. When needed, they helped me prepare the space for painting. The team at Straightline Painting had good attention to detail and when I pointed out something that I wanted to be changed, they were always willing to go the extra mile, and with a smile. I trusted Straightline Painting to be in my home when I was not there and never had any concerns about theft. They are trustworthy and honest and I trusted them with my biggest asset, my home! If you are looking for an honest, hard-working painting company that will continue to work with you throughout a project, then Straightline Painting is the one. They show-up on time, the will provide valuable insight about what products are best in certain situations and most importantly, they did a great job. The lines in my home are straight and they completed the job and met expectations. Thank you Cody and Robert for doing a great job on my home and we would definitely use them again!"

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

There are times when you should remove all exterior paint before repainting. This includes when you need to get rid of lead-based paint (which should be done by a pro), or if you need to apply a different finish than what’s already there. Your house may also have too many pre-existing layers of old paint, in which case you’ll be better off getting rid of the old layers first.

Yes, many professionals use non-toxic removers and dust-free sanding techniques.

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.

Clean and prime surfaces before repainting to ensure adhesion and durability.

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.
