"Jeremy was prompt at getting back to me and setting up a time to come over and give us an estimate on our painting project. We talked, he answered our questions and gave us a quote. We were impressed by him and his quote was reasonable, so we hired him. He asked when we had in mind to start and he was able to do it at that time. He even said if we needed sooner, he would try to work it out. He showed up promptly on the said date and worked all day. He cleaned up each day, so we were able to navigate at night. He finished on time and we were very happy. We had confusion on one thing and he was really great at explaining it and working it out with us. Communication was good and he was very personable. All in all a good experience. We would hire him again!!"

"My mom had a deck built about 10 years ago off the back of her garage area that connected to a larger deck via steps and a concrete walkway. Unfortunately, the original deck steps had dry rot and collapsed. Mr. Rigo provided a fast and fair estimate to rebuild the deck and steps, also salvaging and reusing the parts that were trex material. Within a week of meeting him and agreeing to a price, he and his crew disassembled, rebuilt the foundational structure and steps, and reassembled the deck. They did a beautiful job. They also installed and painted lattice to keep critters out from making homes under both decks. Attached are photos during and after the rebuild. Rigo also fixed some smaller items in the house for my mom. She is very pleased with his work and has commented about how professional, organized, tidy, prompt, and kind he has been throughout the process. We would definitely call him again if or when we have more projects."

"Ecolecuá offers a unique collaborative approach with her clients. On our project, she struck the perfect balance; she listened to our ideas and feedback but very much maintained her role as the creative expert, making us feel comfortable the entire time. I would absolutely recommend Ecolecuá with no hesitation. With all she has done, she is going to find the right approach for just about any client. Aileen Dominguez Dentist, Boston, Massachusetts"

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible with strippers or sanding, but professional services ensure efficiency and prevent surface damage.

You can sell a house with lead paint, but there are several requirements. If you are aware that lead paint exists anywhere in the home, you must disclose that to potential buyers. Required home inspections will often uncover lead paint, especially for older houses where lead paint may still be a problem. If you have taken steps to encapsulate lead, you should provide buyers with full documentation of the project so it won’t cause any problems later on.

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.

One of the most significant benefits of hiring a professional painter is that they complete the task faster and better. Generally, it takes about a day to paint a room, depending on dry time. If you're painting your entire house or the exterior of your home, that's a lot of time spent with a paintbrush in hand. Outsourcing this project to a painting pro will save you countless hours.

Other benefits of hiring a professional painter include:

  • Quality experience with painting 

  • Assistance with choosing colors

  • Using the right tools for the job

  • Extensive product knowledge

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.
