"Asked CertaPro to paint our 30-year-old ceilings. They did a great job. They spent 3 days covering, taping and painting 3000+ sq feet of ceiling. The paint crew was superior, friendly, the work excellent, done professionally and on-time. After completion, the cleanup was complete and except for brilliant new ceilings, it was difficult to tell if they were ever here. A+, 5-Star work."

"This is my second time using Superb Painting. The crew was phenomenal with good attitudes and very precise painting abilities. They were very concerned about the house. They inspected their work constantly and decided whether another coat was needed or not. Superb Painting stresses attention to detail and making the current job the most important thing they’re doing or have done. Superb Painting is my go-to painters in Omaha. Fantastic experience!"

"Absolutely the best company for your painting needs in Omaha. I went through nine different quoting processes with various Omaha-based companies before I signed a contract with Ross and his guys at EmeraldPro Painting of Omaha. EmeraldPros quote was the last quote I searched for after being incredibly disappointed with the process I received from other companies. I genuinely knew I was going to go with his proposal before he e-mailed it to me. Ross showed me videos he took of his crews doing work on other houses in Omaha. He showed me the paint and process his crews would be using. Everything he promised from the start was completed at the end with absolutely no surprises. I wasn't looking for a "blow-and-go" job everyone else was leading me to. I wanted my house painted right, with quality paint, done by people who take pride in their work. Ross was extremely friendly, always on time, very personable, and most importantly his guys did an amazing job on my house. Pricing was very, very competitive. They repaired small holes in my siding, replaced rotted facias, painted my entire exterior, and painted my front door. The job site was cleaned at the end of each day, and I was left with a stunning house that I couldn't be any happier about. I've had a lot of bad experiences in my short 7 years of homeownership fixing up my first house, and this has been the most pleasant experience thus far. I will return as a customer for more work down the road, and I will 100% be recommending EmeraldPro Painting of Omaha to any of my friends and family in the future. Thank you Ross, and thank you EmeraldPro Painting of Omaha for getting me excited to pull up to my home again!"

"Bryan was great to work with. He was prompt, polite & personable. But he also did an excellent job. We bought a new home and part of the living room ceiling had an area where a repair had been made but never painted. Bryan matched the ceiling paint and covered the repaired area, saving us hundreds of dollars by not having to paint the entire ceiling. We will definitely use True Finish Painting for future projects. We highly recommend them."

"They did a fabulous job for us. This father and son owned business were very considerate of our needs and did a wonderful service for us. I will be having them back to paint the interior of our house, and will be recommending them to family and friends. They returned to our home a few days after they completed the job to see if we were satisfied with their work. We definitely were!"

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Sandblasting is a common method for removing paint. It works great if the underlying material is tough. This is because you can then use more abrasive sandblast materials, making the paint removal process much faster and less expensive. If you plan on removing many layers of paint on smooth surfaces, you’ll need to be more careful about which materials you choose to use to sandblast.

You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.

  • What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?

  • Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?

  • How do you test for lead paint?

  • What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?

  • What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?

  • Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?

Most spray paints are oil-based, meaning you will need a solvent to dissolve them, like paint thinner, lacquer thinner, or acetone. While solvents can be useful in removing paint, they are also very flammable and require the use of a respirator. Beyond that, these products may smear paint and cannot be used on all surfaces.

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.

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.
