"Donin and Dorian did a wonderful painting job! Everything--floors, carpets, furniture, etc.--was covered completely during the process, and the finished product was lovely. One would never know that there had ever been damage to the ceilings from Hurricane Florence. DLA Painting is the best. I would highly recommend them to anyone."

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

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

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

With patience, you can often save a dried paintbrush. Soak the bristles overnight and clean the brush as you would any other time. You'll likely have to repeat the cleaning steps, including soaking, more than once.

If you recently splashed paint on the wrong area of a wooden object, remove it with a solvent or caustic paint stripper. Some paint that has yet to dry may be removable by hand with coarse sandpaper or a plastic scraper. Another trick for removing dried-on paint is rubbing a dab of nail polish remover on the paint to remove it, but avoid touching the bare wood surface.
