"Jerry and crew went out of their way to paint our living, dining, & kitchen area. They moved furniture, filled holes in the walls, & even refinished part of our ceiling. They did all prep work necessary (sanding wall surfaces and filling in seams so there was no surface that didn’t have paint on it). They used a high quality latex paint and did 2 coats on the walls. Would definitely hire again."

"Superb Painting was such a great choice for our kitchen refresh. Throughout the project, we interacted with co-owners Tim and Neall and master painters Levi and Miguel. The customer service was outstanding from all parties! They did a fabulous job of sanding, priming, and painting our kitchen cabinets and drawers. The craftsmanship they used to caulk and paint the cabinet doors makes them look brand new and brings our kitchen into the 21st century! They helped determine what colors to consider for cabinets, trim, and walls, and they were super responsive to any questions or concerns we had throughout the project. We can't say enough about the work ethic, professionalism, and communication we observed and experienced, and we highly recommend Superb Painting for any of your painting or siding needs. They will be our first call the next time we have another painting project!"

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

First, make sure that you tape off all the areas that you don’t want to paint black. It’s harder to paint a light color over black than to touch up any lighter spots you missed. Once you’ve taped it off, make sure that the surface is clean and smooth, and then prime the wall with a tinted primer in gray. This step will help to transition from a lighter color to a darker one.

Yes, options with low VOC and sustainable ingredients ensure healthier choices.

No, you cannot paint over soot. Soot is a type of contaminant and if not properly removed can cause further damage to your paint and walls. Adding paint directly over soot can result in your paint color changing in appearance and potentially peeling over time. 

To prep a floor for painting, start by sweeping and cleaning any loose debris that could puncture the protective material. Take out as much furniture as possible. Then lay plastic, canvas, rosin paper, or masonite sheets across the room, securing them at the edges with masking tape. Plan your painting so that you minimize the chances you’ll step in and track any splatters.

When applying the first coat of touch-up paint, it is best to use a paint roller. A roller allows you to get a thin layer of paint to the area to avoid an unsightly blend with the old coat of paint. However, if you need to touch up the area a second time after the first coat has dried, a small brush will work best to avoid applying too much paint.
