"MQ Painting was very professional in every aspect of the work they completed for us. They power washed every surface prior to painting. All surfaces were sanded or scraped as needed. Two coats of stain we applied to all surfaces. The garage doors were stripped, stained and varnished. The deck railings were completely replaced and painted on a very large deck. Originally, Jose thought only a portion of the railing spindles needed to be replaced. As the job proceeded it was apparent that all spindles and railing wood needed to be replaced. The only additional charge was for the materials, not for labor even though every spindle needed to be individually cut from larger pieces of lumber. MQ was the only painting contractor who bid on our paint job who was willing to do all the woodwork repairs needed on the deck. Other contractors said we'd need to have someone repair the deck and then they would paint it. We appreciated working with just one contractor. Their painting and carpentry work was top notch. All workers were neat, punctual and conscientious. All materials and tools were picked up and stored at the end of every work day. I discovered MQ Painting through Angie's List. I highly recommend MQ Painting and would absolutely hire them again."

"We had a fantastic experience working with our painter! He painted our interior doors, trim, and our front door—and the results are absolutely beautiful. From the start, he was courteous, punctual, and professional. We found him through a referral on the NextDoor app, and he was quick to respond, coming out to provide an estimate the very next Monday. To our surprise and delight, he was available to start the following day and completed the entire project, along with his crew, in just one day. He even included a few extras, and his pricing was very fair. Our freshly painted yellow front door has given our home incredible curb appeal, and the interior looks completely refreshed—like a brand-new home. Even our young kids noticed and commented on how great everything looks! Highly recommend him if you're looking for high-quality work and a stress-free experience."

"I have been working with Paul for well over a decade for all my painting needs. The quality of their work is EXCELLENT, and let me tell you, I am very particular. He always comes into every project with a great attitude, professionalism, and enthusiasm. I have shopped around a few times and I consistently find his prices are very competitive. In summary, Paul has that rare combination of quality, reliability, good manners, and a willingness to put in the work and do a great job. I cannot recommend them highly enough!"

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

You can find chemical and naturally derived paint thinners to remove paint without as much sanding. A heat gun or pressure washer can also remove paint from large areas. However, sanding is often the best way to remove the final bits of paint that remain on the surface.

The easiest way to remove window decals is to soak the area in hot, soapy water. Let it sit for 15 minutes before scraping it with a plastic scraper or the edge of a credit card. You can also remove window decals with white vinegar, rubbing alcohol, or applying heat from a hairdryer or steam cleaner.

Yes, you can technically use a pressure washer to remove paint from brick, but it comes with a significant risk of damaging the brick surface. A high-power pressure washer can be fast but may leave the brick looking unsightly. The recommended method is to first apply a chemical paint stripper, following the product's instructions, and then use a stiff metal bristle brush or a pressure washer on a low-pressure setting to remove the loosened paint. Due to the risk of damage, it is often best to hire a professional who can use low-stress methods.

Yes, paint thinner can damage some surfaces. Specifically, it can cause a lot of damage to laminate flooring if applied incorrectly.

This factor depends on exactly how much paint you remove from your hardwood floors. If it’s just a few small, hardly noticeable spots, refinishing won’t be necessary. However, if you completely strip your floors of paint, you will likely need to sand and finish them.
