"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!"

"Markus was so great to work with! Highly recommend! He painted our whole house in record timing (walls and trim) and it looks great! He is very quick to respond at anytime and very easy to work with. Heâ s prompt and a very hard worker. He finished a whole day early! Very pleased with our freshly painted home and so nice to work with a very nice person. Thank you so much Markus! We will be recommending you to anyone that needs painting."

"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

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.

Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.

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.

Soot can be harder to remove compared to other types of stains given its acidic nature. It can also cause underlying paint to peel off during the cleaning process. If your soot issue is a result of smoke damage, it’s recommended you call a pro to help remove it versus doing it yourself.

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.
