"What a FABOULOUS experience! Jonathan the owner, was quick to respond and visited the site the first day we spoke to review the project and prepare the quote. The job was interior painting of a 2-story house with high (20â ceilings) and the installation of a built-in floor to ceiling bookcase. Jonathan was not just responsive and honest, but he always went the extra mile. He was quick to size up the project and provide recommendations on how to be cost effective without sacrificing the look of the finished project. They may not be the cheapest but they were very competitive and did high quality work. The entire crew was wonderful to work with throughout the process. Every employee was proficient and professional which stems from Jonathan himself. Jonathan was very accommodating, and very good at communicating. You will not find nicer or more conscientious people to work with. A special shout out to Brad who was the project leader. He and his crew were always in contact with the status of the project. There was nothing they couldnâ t do, including replacing all the hardware. They were professional, polite, neat, and very knowledgeable. We are thrilled with the results. We feel like we have a new house! We will definitely hire Cani Painting again."

"Just finished our kitchen and bathroom remodel with Ocean Seven Builders and happy we went with them. Ron helped us through the whole process and made it simple. He was always available when we had questions and gave honest advice when we were choosing materials. The kitchen looks open and bright now, and the bathroom finally feels updated instead of old and cramped. Solid work and good people."

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

You can sand paint off a wall. However, it's difficult and time-consuming. Depending on why you wish to remove the paint, there are simpler ways to achieve similar results. Scraping off any loose paint and applying a skim coat is the most common way to hide a damaged wall or paint job.

Professional painters often use a Turpentine-based solution to remove paint, since it can remove oil-based paint as well as acrylics and varnishes. It’s also an organic material derived from tree resin, so it’s less toxic than traditional paint strippers. Consult a professional cabinet refinisher or painter about the best materials to use for paint stripping.

While a pressure washer is certainly powerful enough to remove old and peeling paint, this is not a great idea to do yourself. The pressure washer is so powerful that you could actually damage the walls as you strip away the paint. It’s best to leave paint stripping to the pros. 

Pressure washing is the best way to remove paint that’s already peeling from certain types of vinyl and aluminum siding and some masonry. However, if the paint is largely intact and not yet peeling, or if your siding material can’t withstand the pressure, you may need to use other methods, such as chemical paint strippers, a heat gun, a paint scraper, or sanding.

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
