"Prestige Painting removed built up stain and paint from our concrete patios and put on new stain. They turned out great, I was very happy with the end result. Kevin was great to work with and kept me up to date on how the project was going since the work was being done at our lake home and I was not there. I definitely will be using them again for other painting projects."

"My experience with Jared and Paula couldn’t have went any better and I love my new kitchen! They were on time, communicated daily even when I had a ton of questions choosing a color. I am so impressed with the quality and durability of my cabinets. They even painted my kitchen for free! I will definitely use them again in the near future!"

"We loved working with EcoBlast! They painted our exposed basement ceiling matte black. Mike was really easy to communicate with; he replied quickly and worked with our scheduling needs. Cody and the other gentleman who came to do the work prepped the space well, were thorough in their work, and were polite and curteous. The next day we discovered a tricky duct that didn’t take the paint well on the joints and they responded quickly to come and do a repair. Our ceiling looks fantastic; we are very pleased with the work."

"Bob reached out to me to discuss the painting project I had in mind. He listened well and offered his thoughts in exchange. Bob is very amiable and easy to converse with and seemed as excited as me to work on the project. I did not hire any painters from the list provided to me due to budget constraints. Bob would have been my first choice because if his friendliness and his bid was the lowest offered and the most detailed."

Because we are retired we were home while Scott was working,he is very professional and personable. We wouldnâ t call anyone else for painting. We definitely give him a 10+!!! R&K Wagner"

Interior Painting questions, 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.

One of the most significant benefits of hiring a professional painter is that they complete the task faster and better. Generally, it takes about a day to paint a room, depending on dry time. If you're painting your entire house or the exterior of your home, that's a lot of time spent with a paintbrush in hand. Outsourcing this project to a painting pro will save you countless hours.

Other benefits of hiring a professional painter include:

  • Quality experience with painting 

  • Assistance with choosing colors

  • Using the right tools for the job

  • Extensive product knowledge

Using a wire brush, forcefully scrub the surface to remove paint from metal. You’ll want to remove any lingering rust, too. For larger areas with caked-on rust, you may need to use a wire brush drill attachment. If the paint still won’t budge, apply a chemical paint stripper to the area and scrape off the paint, after following the paint stripper’s instructions.

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.

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.
