"This paint team was referred to us by our interior designer who works them frequently and and refers to them as "the best". They did not disappoint. The lead painter, Fernando, is a detail oriented perfectionist. No corners were cut during our full house interior paint job. Fernando and his team will be our first call for any future paint work."

"My crew from NSP was amazing. Professional, courteous, kind and on point to get the task done. Large 2 story colonial with addition and ovs garage. I believe it took total of 5 days because of early weather in October 22. No paint chips on ground, very conscious of my shrubs and gardens, you would not even know they were painting. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this outstanding company and would not hesitate to have them paint my home again. The price was very fair, the warranty good but most of all they always stayed in touch to let me know what was going to happen etc. My team, Frank, Benjamin and Valerio were amazing. Peter the owner and coordinator did a great job. Thank you again. My neighbors stopped to tell me how great my home looks and asked for the name of the painters for them in springtime. Thats says much about Northshore Painting. Great job, great professionalism, great job. VCM Billerica Ma"

"We hired Cassio and his crew to paint the interior of our condo and were very satisfied with his work. Cassio was professional from the moment we met him and that professionalism continued through completion of the project. We appreciated his flexibility while working around the holidays and in finishing the work in a timely manner as we were eager to move into our new home. His attention to detail showed in the final product, and although it ended up costing more than anticipated, we could not be happier with the work he did. We wouldn't hesitate to hire Boston Painting Services again in the future!"

"Rafael and his team at Pontes Painting do FANTASTIC work. I have used them for two home projects now: the first time for interior painting during a basement renovation, and the second time for the exterior painting of my entire home. The communication, pricing, planning, effort, and actual work are all reasonable and top notch. Very easy and friendly to work with, and I highly recommend them!"

Customers say: Terrific value

"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."

Customers say: Super punctual

"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

Professionals use safe, efficient methods that protect surfaces and prepare for new finishes.

A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance—so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.

Yes, you can pressure wash epoxy floors, but you must take precautions to avoid damaging the surface. While most epoxy floors can be cleaned with a mop, you might choose to pressure wash if the floor is stained, has ground-in dirt, or is covered with mold or mildew. To do so safely, first soak any stains or dirty areas with a gentle cleanser. Use a lower pressure setting with a gentle nozzle, such as a green, white, or black tip, or a 45-degree angled tip. Keep the spray nozzle at least 18 inches away from the floor to protect the surface. Using a surface cleaner attachment or a rotary scrubber can also help prevent overspray. Be cautious if using a power washer that heats the water, as the combination of heat and pressure may be too powerful and could damage the epoxy coating.

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.

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.
