"My sisters and I hired Mike while working to prepare our father's home for sale. Our father had recently moved to an assisted living facility and our goal was to have the house ready to sell as soon as possible. I found Mike on Angie's List and I am SO glad I did! We hired Mike to repair and replace tile in two bathrooms. But, we quickly learned that Mike's skills extend far beyond complex tile work. As the renovations continued, Mike did a variety of jobs for us including painting, plumbing and woodworking, Mike is extremely easy to work with, flexible, and a terrific problem-solver. Our dad's home is about 35 years old and presented us with a variety of unique challenges. Mike was our savior, offering solutions. and going way above and beyond what we asked of him many times. Don't let his company name fool you - Mike knows a great deal about many aspects of home repair and renovation. He is flexible and great with timelines. Since my sisters and I do not live in the area, Mike became our eyes and ears at our dad's house as a variety of repair people arrived to do their work. He is trustworthy, kind, and reasonably priced. I hope you can see from this review that we cannot recommend Mike Lipiner highly enough!"

"Below is the information I sent to the production team today (Tuesday November 3, 2020) and the salesman. It sums up how things went. Greetings Andrew, Sam, As we close out this process, I want to go on record with my concerns regarding the work done, as I have had the opportunity to inspect everywhere that was painted. Here are all the things observed that will be noted in my review. 1. Painter painted back and side splashes of vanities in bathroom on first floor. Even after doing touch up, he removed the paint, and then instead of putting painters tape on the vanity, he repainted the walls in the bathroom, put white caulk on the vanity when I originally had clear caulking, and repainted it. I even wrote in spanish what needed to be done, and provided it to the painter and it was still done incorrectly. I am extremely disappointed about this as now I have to incur additional costs to have the paint removed, the walls repainted, and the clear caulking put around the vanity. This is most annoying as it is the bathroom guests use when they enter my townhome. 2. There is paint in many unexpected places. The painters took the wall plates off the socket receptacles and light switches, which makes perfect sense. But why did they paint the actual receptacles and some of the switches. I indicated to Sam I was replacing the wall plates, not the actual receptacles. Now I will have to replace them as well. There is paint on many cords, not clear why they did not just unplug them, particularly the lights. I left them in so they could see. There is paint on the inside of one of the hand railings on the stairway which suggests sloppiness. The painters did not put painter's tape around the railing. There is paint on the curtain rod hooks affixed to the wall. I can see painting nails, but the curtain rods? There is paint on my wooden doors, and on windows. 3. Despite indicating in an email to Andrew, and telling the woman who called me on Wednesday October 28, 2020 that I was not available until after 3pm on Thursday October 29th , the painter showed up to do the touch ups at 8:30am on Thursday, right before my video meeting. He indicated that he was not informed by you of the time he should come. That was unprofessional. The painter ended up coming back the next day (Friday) to do the touch ups. 4. The painter had considerable difficulty taking down the blinds in the kitchen, because they had put them up incorrectly when they originally did the painting. In fact, the painter wanted to just paint around the blinds. I told him no. Not only did the painters put the blinds up incorrectly, but they also did not wait until the paint dried before putting it up, which messed up the work. Also, because the blinds were not put back up correctly, one of the strings popped resulting in the blinds not laying properly now."

"The management and staff at Spiros Painting were 100% professional from beginning to end. They responded immediately to my request for an estimate. They had someone come out to look at the project site the next day. I had called another painting company who told me that they could not provide an estimate unless I assured them that I would sign a contract within 30 days. Spiros made no such stipulation. Spiros began the work about a week after I accepted their proposal. This was partly to accommodate own my schedule; they could have started earlier. The rear wall of the house is difficult to access, but Spiros was able to deal with the situation without bringing in any special equipment. They scraped and patched the wall thoroughly. I have had experiences with painters in the past whose scraping amounted to a light rubdown. Spiros was very conscientious about removing ALL of the peeling paint. The company was patient with me when I changed my mind a couple of times before the work started, about the color I wanted. The work was finished in two days, partly because it was interrupted by rain. The company cleaned up thoroughly after the job was done. I'm very pleased with the work and the workmanship."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

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

Paint removal is a time-consuming job that can take anywhere from an hour for small surfaces, like a single stair banister, to multiple days for larger projects, like removing paint from wood siding. Expect to spend between five and 20 minutes per square foot. You can use chemical paint strippers to speed up the process, but be sure you use proper protective gear and take care to pick a product that’s suited for your material.

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.

The safest way to remove lead-based paint is by letting a professional take over. For most people, lead paint removal costs an average of $3,400. You should never attempt to dry sand old lead-based paint surfaces by hand. Most professionals use a paint stripper to do the job followed by wet scraping, but if you don’t want to remove lead paint, another option is to paint over it. Only consider this option if the old lead paint finish isn’t flaking or cracked.

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.
