"Mike from Abbyart did the interior painting for an 1100 sq ft condo (primer and 2 coats of painting), painted my oak kitchen cabinets white and completed backsplash tiling for the kitchen. Mike was also was kind enough to install my kitchen appliances for me (the store told me installation was included but the delivery people did not install anything). Mike took on extra work and was willing to do this without charging me. He is kind and very detail-oriented. He would not say the job was finished, until he was satisfied that everything was done correctly."

"Taurino did a fantastic job with my interior painting and expertly handled some external repairs and painting as well. Not only did he use his discount paint card to save me a lot of money, but his pride in workmanship is clear in the quality of the results. I would gladly hire him again."

"My experience with Chesapeake Painting Solutions from my first inquiry via their website to the last day of the project was exemplary. It was all topped off by receiving a thank you bouquet of flowers the day after the project completed. Every resource, every interaction, and every conversation was professional, courteous and thorough. Mike in sales provided an on-site visit and quote in the same day! The project management team promptly scheduled and kept to the date committed. The painters were polite and highly skilled. The work quality is outstanding. I will surely call on CPS again, and recommend to others."

"Cleaning went well with 3 guys and done in one day. They called to coordinate the day to start of the staining which let us avoid a dinner party we were having. A team of 8 stained for 2 consecutive days. They left the site clean. The price was about the same as we paid a one-man company 3 years earlier and about $1k less than another quote we got for the work. We were very pleased and will have them quote any future painting we need done."

"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."

"We used Klappenberger & Son Anne Arundel to paint the interior – walls, and ceilings - of our new house. They came out and did an estimate (which I found quite reasonable), and got us on their schedule really quickly. The crew that came to our house were very professional and worked quickly. They were also really responsive when we made a few changes to colors, etc. during the painting process. We were so happy with the results; our house looks great. I’d use them again in a minute, and would highly recommend them to anyone."

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Removing paint from brick can have both aesthetic and practical value. Some people prefer the timeless look of bare brick, making it worthwhile to remove old paint layers. Brick also lasts longer when unpainted, as paint traps moisture, causing the brick to deteriorate more quickly. If your brick walls are already in bad shape, stripping the paint off might do more harm than good.

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

Professionals may use a variety of methods to remove old paint from surfaces, often depending on the size and complexity of the surface. Paint scraping in combination with a chemical paint stripper is the most common method, but experts might also use heat or steam to loosen everything before peeling the paint off. Some might just sand off the old paint if the surface is relatively flat and easily accessible.

Penetrating sealer seeps into concrete pores to protect it from moisture and staining, cracking, and mold caused by water. This means you cannot remove penetrating sealers like topical sealers. The good news is that penetrating sealant doesn’t have to be removed before resealing, as most topical sealers must. Instead, you’ll want to buy a compatible penetrating sealant (often the same kind already in the concrete) and apply it. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Technically, mineral spirits are a type of paint thinner, so they can be used for the same purposes. In most cases, pure mineral spirits are preferable to other paint thinners. Still, if necessary, you can successfully use paint thinners for most of the same applications, such as thinning or cleaning oil paints.
