"Kevin and his family Andrea, Drew, and Sarah came to help fix our interior paint situation. They painted ceilings, walls, and trim, and fixed significant cracking in walls in every room of our home. Our project was not easy. We have 16-foot ceilings in some spots. They went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with the work. The old homeowners did some damage to the walls. They took hours and weeks to get paint off the trim, resurface the walls, and fill cracks from the house settling. I could not recommend them enough. We hope to hire them for our exterior paint this/next year! Thank you again Kevin and family!"
"Tom was great to work with and offered suggestions when asked. The painters were friendly, respectful of the property and they cleaned up each day. They asked us to look things over before they finished and let them know of any concerns so they could take care of them right away. The project started later and took longer than expected but that was primarily due to the uncooperative weather we've had this summer. The house looks great and we were very happy with the service!"
"Brandon and his crew were easy to work with and they provided excellent service. Would highly recommend B&L for any renovation projects, especially painting."

While a pressure washer is certainly powerful enough to remove old and peeling paint, this is not a great idea to do yourself. The pressure washer is so powerful that you could actually damage the walls as you strip away the paint. It’s best to leave paint stripping to the pros.
Yes, a magic eraser can remove candle wax. You can use it to remove all the candle wax from start to finish. Another option is to remove all large clumps with a dull knife and then pull out your magic eraser to finish the job. However, while the results can be impressive, a magic eraser shouldn’t be used on all surfaces since it can potentially damage them. If you try this method, test a small, hidden spot first and proceed cautiously.
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 should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.
What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?
Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?
How do you test for lead paint?
What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?
What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?
Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?
Some homeowners have luck using pressure washers, but this only works for old or weaker concrete sealants and with very powerful pressure washers. You’ll get better results by pressure washing water-based sealants. However, it’s worth trying on any sealant if you’re hoping for the least toxic, least expensive, and most DIY-friendly option. To try this method, rent or buy the most powerful pressure washer you can find and take several passes at the concrete, completely pressure washing the entire area. You may need to repeat the process multiple times to see results.
