"Used them for painting kitchen cabinets. Did a meticulous job prepping and sealing off the work area. Final job was excellent. Cleaned everything up each day and did a beautiful job overall. Also had them paint some outside work and it was well done and reasonably priced. Nice guys too! From now on I wouldn t use anyone else."

"I am super happy with the job that Dave and Dan did. We hired them to paint our master bedroom and bathroom (including ceiling, doors, walls, and baseboards). The job they did was flawless, super clean lines, and they went out their way to accommodate our schedules. Knowing that we will have the flooring contractors to come in the next few days, and we wanted them to paint the baseboards of two extra rooms, they worked in the evenings to make sure they complete the job for us. We really appreciate it! Prior to beginning the job, Dave gave me suggestions on paint selection and quantities needed, helped me put together my budget. After the job is complete, they cleaned up everything and there is nothing I need to do. Their price is competitive too. I will definitely recommend them to other people, and use them for any future work at my house. Thank you Dave and Dan!"

"Jose and JC has done it again! He gave my bathroom a face lift. New floors and paint even repaired my sink (haven't had hot water for years) and replaced my knobs Ithe back of my washing machine and fixed the leak and replaced valves. He also redid my kitchen. New counter tops, new fan, new floor, painted the old cabinets and replaced other cabinets. He gave me a new sink and removed my dish washer (never used) and replaced it with another cabinet and of course he painted. He did an amazing job. It took less than a week! As said in a previous review he is very professional, reliable, and trustworthy. He did a good job cleaning up behind himself as well. Next will be my basement. Thanks Jose and JC!"

"A Step above Painting and Drywall are "exceptional". I need new flooring all on the 1st floor as well as needed the entire house (Interior) to be painted. Andres and his team did an outstanding job on my floors and painting. Tony (Mgr) is awesome - busy - but he does follow up, great person and team. I would HIGHLY recommend this company for your projects."

"I highly recommend Fabiano's Construction. Our experience with him was fantastic from beginning to end. The project was to restore and replace the exterior window frames of our 1830 Trinity. The previous owners had installed new windows on the inside but left the old ones outside for beauty. Many of these old windows were completely rotten at the bottom, barely holding the small panes of glass together. We got three estimates. One builder wanted to replace the old windows with a second set of new ones. Another was going to patch them up with wood filler. Fabiano was the only one who was willing to actually restore them, using green wood for the parts that were beyond salvaging. It was precision carpentry work requiring problem-solving ingenuity. The new frames and sills are green wood plus Azek (PVC), so they should last forever. Although more major restoration was necessary than foreseen, Fabiano and his crew—his son Will and assistant Simon—still finished the job in the predicted time. They were careful, focused, hard-working, and also really nice, honest people. It was a pleasure to meet them, and the result is a stunning improvement to our house both inside and out. Fabiano is responsive and friendly, an expert who takes pride in his work. Incredibly, his price was the lowest the three. We plan to hire him for another project."

"Jonathan was great. He called right away talked about the work needed, sent an estimate and scheduled the work within three days. He knew I needed the work done right away so he did the eork on Sunday just to work me in right away. He showed up a few minutes early, worked almost 8 hours and cleaned up when the work was done. I will call Jonathan again when needed!!"

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

Lead removal is crucial in older homes to eliminate risks of lead poisoning, which can severely affect health, particularly in children, by impacting development and cognitive functions.

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. 

Most spray paints are oil-based, meaning you will need a solvent to dissolve them, like paint thinner, lacquer thinner, or acetone. While solvents can be useful in removing paint, they are also very flammable and require the use of a respirator. Beyond that, these products may smear paint and cannot be used on all surfaces.

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.

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