"Chris responded immediately. Came to my home on a Sunday and he & his crew started the next Tuesday. I never thought I could have my home painted in 8 days. From start to finish, he & his crew were here promptly at 8am. From the prep to the final coat of paint, they were professional and thorough. Not a spot of paint on my brand new floors. The price I was quoted was the price I paid. It was worth every penny. I plan on hiring them again for my kitchen and bathroom redo....I highly recommend that you do too!"

"My husband and I initially hired Alex to power wash then stain our deck. Since my husband at a young student, painted homes, he was aware of Alex’ meticulous work. Most recently, Alex, power washed our house followed by painting the interior of our home, as well as the exterior trim of our home. He replaced boards that were damaged by bees on the outside shed. Alex was punctual, polite, and a spotless cleaner upper. A gold star painter!"

"Al painted my kitchen walls and polyurethaned the baseboards in kitchen and sunroom. He was very efficient from arriving on time as scheduled and completing all work plus a few extras in the timeframe he quoted me. I’m overall very happy and would definitely hire him again and recommend him to a friend. Thank you Al!"

"FCL Painting did an excellent job. Felipe answered my emails when I had additional questions. His crew is hard working. I had walls and ceilings done and they look brand new. They showed up on time, cleaned everything at the end of each day and were just a pleasure to work with."

"Charles is an exceptional painter and human being. I would hire him again in a blink of an eye. He is consistent, thorough and extremely knowledgeable about paint and materials. He painted the interior of our 850 sq foot home, was so pleased with his work and ethic so we hired him to paint and repair the exterior trim and porch of our house. He is wonderful!"

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

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 most common reason paint peels is because moisture gets trapped underneath it and disrupts its bond with the wall. Other causes for peeling paint include a poor original paint job, painting over a surface with dirt or other foreign material on it, or applying paint coats that are too thick.

Most projects take 1-5 days, depending on the area size, paint adhesion, and removal technique chosen.

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.
