"We were extremally happy with Grady Jones Paint Contractors. The painters that did our interior painting were very professional and pleasant to deal with. Fred and Chris did a fantastic job. They were neat and cleaned up very nicely when the job was finished. We have more painting that needs to be done and we will definitely hire Grady Jones for that job also."

"We had previously hired Paz Painting to remove popcorn from the ceilings in 2 rooms and hired his crew again to do the same in our dining and living rooms, an entryway and the upstairs stairwell ceiling. They also painted several rooms. They did a great job in both regards and did a nice job of cleaning up when done. Narciso is easy to work with and I would definitely hire his company again."

"We hired Express Yourself Paint for two painting projects that included the entire interior of a townhouse and its enclosed sunroom, in addition to some bathroom caulking work. John, the customer service manager, was very professional, courteous and responsive to our needs. He seemed to work overtime to answer numerous questions and to address concerns during the whole process, in such a timely manner. Brent, who provided estimates, was very knowledgeable and provided great recommendations and pertinent information regarding paint colors and finishes. Michael and his painting crew did a meticulous and beautiful job painting our townhouse and sunroom. Michael was dedicated to having a satisfied customer and he achieved his goal! We will not hesitate to call upon them again for any future painting projects!"

"I requested a quote on a Sunday morning and in less than two hours Howie was at my house to provide an estimate and walk me through everything. Howie and Todd did an amazing job painting my foyer, upstairs loft, hallway and ceilings for me in a timely manner. They arrived every day on time and never left anything a mess at the end of the day. If you want the job done right these two are ones you can trust, i'll be calling them for my other painting needs in the future!"

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Sanding surfaces, repairing damage, cleaning thoroughly, and using quality primers are all steps you can take for exterior home painting.

Distilled white vinegar can help you remove candle wax from surfaces like countertops. You’ll need to scrape off most of the wax and use the distilled white vinegar to help soften and remove the rest and leftover residue. Keep in mind that while it’s possible, using distilled white vinegar isn’t an effective method for removing wax compared to the methods listed above.

If the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it. Lead is toxic when dust particles or flakes from peeling lead paint are ingested. If people are not in the area with the lead paint, it may be safe to leave it in place. You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Yes, vinegar can remove polyurethane from wood, but it is a slow, inefficient, and inconsistent restoration method. Whatever your intention, it’s best to avoid using vinegar on wood with a polyurethane finish—though it can be an effective cleaner for other wood finishes.
