"I wish I could give Miguel and his crew 10+ stars!! They were phenomenal! Their work is exceptional, they were on time, experienced professionals, precise and completed the job exactly as scheduled. They painted the entirety of the interior of the home including the ceilings and cabinetry. We are excited and look forward to having them return to put their magic to work on the exterior of our home. You will not be sorry if you hire Miguel and crew.... they are the BEST!! Also EXCEPTIONAL pricing!"

"We had the house chemically washed prior to listing it for sale. Good customer service provided by Ashley who kept us informed of any change in schedule. They worked for several hours and it looked to be complete. Fortunately I noticed that one deck had not been done before they left. They completed that upon request. The work they did made it look as if it had just been painted. Nice Work!"

The bathroom turned out beautiful, with great attention to detail and quality workmanship throughout. The interior painting was clean, even, and professionally completed. Gustavo and his team were dependable, respectful, and kept the work area organized. We are very happy with the finished results and would highly recommend them for remodeling and painting projects."

Interior Painting questions, answered by experts

Yes, many professionals use non-toxic removers and dust-free sanding techniques.

The easiest and fastest way to remove paint from a surface is to use a chemical paint stripper to loosen the paint and then remove the paint using a paint scraper. You can also speed up the process by making the area as accessible as possible, which could include removing window sashes or taking doors off the hinges.

Yes, you can paint over old exterior paint, but success depends on the condition of the existing paint and proper surface preparation. If the previous coating is in good shape (not cracked, peeling, or flaky), you can paint over it with less prep work. However, for the most durable and professional-looking results, follow these key preparation steps:

  • Clean the Surface: Thoroughly clean the exterior to remove all dirt, grime, and mildew. A pressure washer can be very effective for this.

  • Scrape and Sand: If the old paint is peeling, cracked, or flaky, you must scrape off all loose paint. After scraping, sand the surface to create a smooth, even base for the new paint. Sanding is especially important for wood siding.

  • Apply Primer: Using a quality exterior primer is highly recommended. It ensures the new paint adheres properly, improves durability, and provides a uniform finish. If you are painting a lighter color over a dark one, a tinted primer will help cover the old color more effectively.

Some brands offer paint-and-primer-in-one products for convenience. Taking the time to prepare the surface properly will not only increase your home's curb appeal but also help protect your siding and extend its life.

You can paint over cracked paint, but only if you properly sand down the damaged areas. Once the surface is as smooth as you can get it, clean the walls and let them dry before applying a new coat of paint. Painting over cracked paint without sanding or cleaning beforehand will not cover up the cracks and may even make them look worse.

To remove painted-over hinges for replacement or paint removal, you should use a utility knife to score around the edges of the hinges gently. Work very carefully so as not to damage the surrounding area. From there, you can unscrew the hinges and gently pry them off the door, making sure not to bend the metal.
