"Paz painting was excellent. They did a great job with some repairs to rotten fascia boards and then painted our entire two story house. Quality of the job was very good and Paz painting was very professional and easy to work with. Price was also very competitive as compared with two other quotes we got."

"Cruz Home Painting did an outstanding job painting the entire interior of our home. Jesus came out the same day I contacted him to give me a quote. The price was very fair and the job was completed earlier than our original time line. The house was prepped throughout as not to get any paint on my wood floors, tile, or carpet. The cleanup was even better as I couldn't tell that work was done in the house. This company is very fair with their pricing and the end results are fabulous. Can't go wrong with this company!!!"

"We’ve used International Painting several times over the years and they always deliver excellent, high quality results on time and on budget. Last week they power washed our house, deck, and driveway; painted the foundation; stained the deck; resealed the driveway; and repainted front entrance. We’re delighted that our 30-year old home looks brand new! Fermin and his team are prompt, polite, and professional. Fermin shared his insurance without asking and the team cleaned up every day. We’re extremely happy and will use International Painting again in the future for some interior work."

"I hired a contractor to remove wallpaper in bathroom and paint. He could not get the glue off wall, therefore the wall was uneven. The paint job was horrible. He tried again and again the wall had spots. I contacted Express Yourself Paint. Don gave me an estimate stating that they could smooth, paint wall and redo caulking. Yes, they did just that. My bathroom is now beautiful! They were reasonable, punctual, knowledgeable and very polite. A special thank you to Don Johnson and Bobby. I highly recommend Express Yourself Paint."

"Evans Paint did an excellent job at my house. Mr. Evans was quick to contact, and came out for a thorough and professional estimate. Unlike some competitors in the market, he provided detailed work order with itemized costs, and he didn't require deposit to begin the work. That can only come from a team with high confidence of their work. They were punctual to arrive on work day, finished all 5 rooms within the same day. The result exceeded my expectations. The crew cleaned up well, there's only a few corners with tiny paint splashes, and a few adjustments I had to make to reapplied window shades. Overall the job was neatly done, and my house looks tidy and brand new. I highly recommend Evans Paint, and will not hesitate to hire them again in the future."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a chance that any paint on your hardwood floors could be lead paint—especially if it was already there when you moved in. Because lead is toxic, hiring a licensed pro to remove it is mandatory. The average price for professional lead paint removal ranges from $1,500 to $5,300 and depends on the scope of the project.

Acetone—such as the type in nail polish remover—is a solvent that can remove paint from many surfaces, including wood. However, the acetone will also remove any finish on the wood and can stain the wood below.

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.

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

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.
