"It is very rare that I take the time out of my day to actually sit down and write a review about one of the billions of businesses I have encountered in my life. However, every once in a great while when you come across a business that not only has satisfactorily completed the job they were hired to do, but they weâ re able to exceeded your expectations in numerous ways I feel compelled to do so. Honestly , I feel it is the very least I can do to show Uniques painting just how much I truly appreciated them. In addition to thanking thank them, and letting them know how great of a job they did, I also want to be able to help others who are currently in search of a reputable painting company. If you need a painter, I can guarantee you that you donâ t have to look any further. You donâ t have to read any more reviews, Uniqueâ s Painting Company is the way to go! They were on time every day, always very courteous and professional. They paid attention to detail, and the job was well done. I mean amazing customer service at a great price, how can you go wrong? Just to truly exemplify how happy I was when the job was completed, i want others to know I hired them for an additional two more painting jobs. I also referred my parents and two friends to Uniques painting. All three of my referrals provided very similar feedback and couldnâ t thank me enough for helping them. I know itâ s not always easy to pick a painting company from a some online customer reviews, and possibly a few photos. The majority of the time many of us are left disappointed and frustrated about a painting job we just paid for. So please take my advice, and make sure you hire them! Uniques painting I just want to say thank you again, and any future jobs I need done I know exactly where to go."

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.

The best way to remove lead paint is by wet hand sanding and removing all dust and residue with a HEPA vacuum. Professionals may also strip and scrape lead-based paint with a paint scraper. In some cases, you may choose to have a pro encapsulate or enclose your lead-based paint surface by covering it with a sealant or a new material. You may also choose to replace the material altogether.

You can paint over cracked paint, but only if you properly sand down the damaged areas. Once the surface is as smooth as you can get it, clean the walls and let them dry before applying a new coat of paint. Painting over cracked paint without sanding or cleaning beforehand will not cover up the cracks and may even make them look worse.

Sometimes you can get away with simply sanding and painting over small areas of peeling paint. However, the problem will likely return quickly, and the ridge between old and new paint will be visible. If you just need a quick fix and won't worry about appearance, chip away the peeling paint as much as possible, prime and paint the area, and skip the spackle step.

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.
