"Clee is very responsive, professional and friendly. The crew showed up on time and were professional while in our homes. Price was a little higher than other companies but we picked quality and professionalism over our budget. I was really hesitant on having the cabinets painted, they were an antique washed color which made the kitchen feel dark and we had the cabinets painted a white creamy color which brightened the kitchen and the paint job was so well done that you’d never think they were painted."

"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."

"I could not be happier with the work done at my 1900 sq ft townhouse. In just one and a half days, all interior walls and trim were painted. They were in poor shape but now the place looks brand new. I'm just thrilled that I chose Xtreme Painting and will definitely hire them again for my next painting project."

"Distinctive Coatings did an excellent job on the commercial interior paint work at Blue Water Spa. The space looks clean, polished, and exactly what we envisioned. Their team was professional, reliable, and respectful of our timeline, which was really important with an active business. The attention to detail shows in every room, and the finish completely elevated the space. Based on our experience, we would confidently recommend Distinctive Coatings for both commercial and residential painting projects."

"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."

"We originally hired H&M to do an extensive amount of interior painting. They did a fantastic job. So we hired them to repair our cedar sided house and to paint the exterior. The work was amazing. The siding work is better than the original construction. The crew always did a great job of cleaning up. And the price is very fair. We will hire them again."

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

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.

There are times when you should remove all exterior paint before repainting. This includes when you need to get rid of lead-based paint (which should be done by a pro), or if you need to apply a different finish than what’s already there. Your house may also have too many pre-existing layers of old paint, in which case you’ll be better off getting rid of the old layers first.

This factor depends on exactly how much paint you remove from your hardwood floors. If it’s just a few small, hardly noticeable spots, refinishing won’t be necessary. However, if you completely strip your floors of paint, you will likely need to sand and finish them. 

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.

Paint removal is a time-consuming job that can take anywhere from an hour for small surfaces, like a single stair banister, to multiple days for larger projects, like removing paint from wood siding. Expect to spend between five and 20 minutes per square foot. You can use chemical paint strippers to speed up the process, but be sure you use proper protective gear and take care to pick a product that’s suited for your material.
