"HPO did a fantastic job on my exterior paint job! Eric and his team were great from start to finish. They talked me through the process/ communicated well, and were quick to get the job done (even with some rain delays). The price was very reasonable and the house looks beautiful! I would absolutely work with HPO Painting again!"

"After taking a number of bids, I decided to go with Yolis C Painting. All positive reviews are well merited. We had him do some interior painting and the walls look like new. Outside trim: Admittingly, some of the old paint was chipping, but what we did not anticipate was that much of the wood had begun showing signs of rot (we own the house for 40 years). He repaired and painted it. If looking for fair pricing, professionalism, and detail orientated, they are the ones for you!"

Exterior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Clean and prime surfaces before repainting to ensure adhesion and durability.

It’s best to use a slightly slower-working paint remover that is safer to use, such as mineral spirits, because the strongest spray paint removers are often also the most toxic. Many of these products contain dangerous chemicals, such as methylene chloride, which the EPA banned for most uses in April 2024 after it was established as a major carcinogen.

Removing paint from brick can have both aesthetic and practical value. Some people prefer the timeless look of bare brick, making it worthwhile to remove old paint layers. Brick also lasts longer when unpainted, as paint traps moisture, causing the brick to deteriorate more quickly. If your brick walls are already in bad shape, stripping the paint off might do more harm than good.

You can paint over lead paint, or “encapsulate” it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a lead paint removal method as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an “encapsulant” from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.

The list of what removes caulk residue includes rubbing alcohol. In some cases, rubbing alcohol can also help remove water-based caulk. However, old caulk or caulk that’s in layers from years of upkeep and projects might prove to be too much for simple rubbing alcohol and may require a caulk-removing solution from a home improvement store.
