"Thank you Wow 1-Day Painting employees and management for the excellent job on the interior of my home. The family room, kitchen, hallway, foyer, stairs, and upper landing look beautiful. Working with you was a great experience--and so satisfying that I want to acknowledge it in writing. From start to finish virtually everything went smoothly. When soliciting an estimate, the Wow estimator arrived on time—as did Wow painters every single day of work. Wow’s estimate was reasonable—falling in the middle of four estimates that we solicited from other highly-rated companies. The Wow estimator also made excellent suggestions on the choice of paint color and type. When work started, I watched how the company’s painters prepped walls and baseboards. I saw how carefully they removed wallpaper to avoid damage to walls before priming. Throughout the five days of painting, they paid attention to detail—while being polite and courteous. When my wife and I made suggestions during work, the painters listened to us and positively responded. On completion of the job, they cleaned the work site to our satisfaction. We value consistency in the high quality of this company's work. This is not the first, but the third time, that we have had excellent work performed by Wow Painting. Previous high-quality work done here was a major reason that we again chose Wow. Wow painters worked hard, neatly, and were responsive to my wife and I as we inspected work as it progressed. We want to express our appreciation to the entire crew of painters for their good work. And, we want to cite two wonderful individuals who spent the most time here and who most impressed us with their effort, attentiveness, and quality of work: Manuel and Neptali. We especially want to bring their performance to the company's attention. Certainly, all of the Wow paint crew deserves praise. Likewise, we want to thank too Craig, Laura, and Louis who managed, coordinated, and oversaw day-to-day work. Throughout the entire week, they were prompt to respond to our questions, and satisfied all concerns we had. So now, when my wife and I now look over the work that was performed, we really do say Wow!"

"Our bathroom was remodeled down to the studs! The bathroom had new dry wall and the new paint tied everything together! (Used two different colors for the walls and ceiling for a custom touch). Our interior doors were also replaced with new door frames/molding. The painting for the new doors, trim, and surrounding drywall repair looked like a magazine when the work was completed. The team was a pleasure to work with, stayed on their timeline, and meticulously cleaned after their days work. We highly recommend Gibbs painting for all your home projects!"

"Chesapeake Painting was a pleasure to work with from the beginning to the end. They were prompt, courteous, and professional. From the time I requested a quote to the end of the project was two weeks. Even though it was a relatively small job they treated us as though we were million dollar clients. We will definitely be using them again."

"We reached out to Mr. Mendez for a quote, which turned out to be very reasonable. We accepted his offer and decided to proceed with the painting projects through Mendez Painting Services LLC. In addition to painting, we also needed to install crown molding and wainscoting throughout our entire first level. Mr. Mendez's crew arrived promptly and prepared the space by covering the floors and moving all items to the center of the rooms. They began by repairing cracks in the ceilings and walls and then proceeded to install the crown molding and wainscoting boxes. They even replaced two interior doors and painted the entire interior of our house. The team did a remarkable job on all the projects, and we are completely satisfied with the results. Our house now looks very different, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. We highly recommend this company and would not hesitate to hire them again in the future."

"Exceptional Home Contracting Service by Marvin! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I've had the pleasure of working with Marvin's home contracting business for over eight years now, and I can confidently say that he is an absolute gem in the industry. From interior and exterior painting to pressure washing, and a wide array of jobs including drywall installation, attic insulation, and even the meticulous demolition of a large exterior shed - Marvin's workmanship is nothing short of superb. One of the standout qualities of Marvin is his punctuality and efficiency. He not only starts on time but often finishes ahead of schedule, which is a rarity in the contracting world. This level of dedication and commitment to delivering top-notch results sets him apart from the rest. Throughout the years, I've come to rely on Marvin for various small and medium-sized projects, and each time, he has exceeded my expectations. His attention to detail is commendable, ensuring that every task is completed with precision and care. What truly stands out is Marvin's passion for his craft. It's evident in the flawless finishes he achieves, whether it's a fresh coat of paint or a complex installation job. His expertise and knowledge shine through in every project he undertakes. In short, I cannot recommend Marvin's home contracting business highly enough. If you're in need of a skilled, reliable, and dedicated contractor, look no further. Marvin's exceptional service and results speak for themselves. Don't hesitate to entrust your home improvement projects to him - you won't be disappointed!"

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Numerous primers on the market will do the job of covering peeling paint. The best primers for peeling paint are bonding or adhesive primers that essentially glue the edges of peeling paint back to the subsurface while providing a smooth, even surface for the new paint coat.

While not all homes built before 1978 contain lead paint, enough do, so you’ll still want to test to be on the safe side. The federal government banned lead-based paint for homes in 1978, but your state may have banned lead before that time. Around 24% of homes built between 1960 and 1977 contained lead-based paint, while 87% of homes built before 1940 contained lead-based paint.

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.

WD-40 can help remove paint on wood floors, but use it cautiously. Start with a small amount and let it sit for a few minutes, then gently scrape the paint off using a plastic (not metal) scraper. You may want to test it first on a hidden area to ensure it doesn't damage the finish. Professional products specifically designed for hardwood may be a better choice for large or stubborn paint spots.
