"I hired Kennedy Painting to paint the trim on my house. Brian was quick to give a quote, was very reasonably priced, showed up when he said he would and the crew did a great job. I referred him to my aunt and uncle for their home. I will absolutely use Kennedy Painting again in the future."

"Peter and his team did an excellent job! The house needed a lot of carpentry repair (window frames repair, siding replacement etc.) All carpentry work was addressed. All the work was done with high quality. The house looks beautiful and I would recommend North Shore Painting."

"Mark did an excellent job painting the interior, cabinets, mantle, and stair railing in my home. He also removed the wallpaper from the kitchen. His quote was competitive and there were no surprises in costs at completion. He was on time, careful with everything in the house, and cleaned up each day. He was easy to work with, has a good sense of humor, and I look forward to working with him again."

"Steve and his crew did a FANTASTIC job doing a full interior painting of our house. There were areas with writing on the walls, drywall damage, peeling paint and seams. They fixed all of it, advised us on which color options and sheens would look best, and completely transformed the feel of the house. They used very high quality paint. He was very communicative and prices were very fair. Highly recommend Bay State!"

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Pressure washing is the best way to remove paint that’s already peeling from certain types of vinyl and aluminum siding and some masonry. However, if the paint is largely intact and not yet peeling, or if your siding material can’t withstand the pressure, you may need to use other methods, such as chemical paint strippers, a heat gun, a paint scraper, or sanding.

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.

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.

You can paint over cracked paint, but only if you properly sand down the damaged areas. Once the surface is as smooth as you can get it, clean the walls and let them dry before applying a new coat of paint. Painting over cracked paint without sanding or cleaning beforehand will not cover up the cracks and may even make them look worse.
