"If you’re looking for a painter who truly cares about his work, I can’t recommend Flavio enough. He just completed a nearly 5,000 sq ft interior paint project in our home, and the experience exceeded expectations from start to finish. Flavio is incredibly talented, professional, reliable, and one of the nicest contractors we’ve worked with. The quality of his work speaks for itself — crisp lines, smooth finishes, flawless coverage, and amazing attention to detail throughout the entire house. What really stood out was how much pride he took in the job. He constantly went above and beyond, handling touch-ups without being asked, helping move things back into place, keeping the workspace clean, communicating well, and making sure we were happy every step of the way. He treated our home with genuine care and respect from day one. It’s hard to find contractors who combine skill, professionalism, honesty, and work ethic the way Flavio does. We would absolutely hire him again."
"Baci Painting is the absolute BEST! They transformed our home from dark walls to light and bright (including all trim). We had our entire home painted and if we had more walls to paint we would hire Baci Painting again. I would recommend Baci Painting to anyone looking for top quality, care and service for your home. Top notch!"
"They didn't really pay attention to detail. They slept paint on outlets door knobs window sills that another company had to clean or clear the paint so that I could open the windows lock doors and to use the outlets. They also recommended me to purchase an enormous amount of paint that I never used."
"Benny did a stellar job painting our condo. We really appreciate that he paid such close attention to detail and went above and beyond fixing every crack and hole from years of settling. He worked diligently everyday to complete the job in record time. His experience spoke for itself. We were very pleased with the final results and would highly recommend him to others."

"Leo and team did an amazing job. Was not an easy task, as there were many dark colors to paint over, but everything came out beautifully. Would def recommend to anyone."
"Bryan's team (specifically, Javier and Ruben) did a phenomenal job installing an interior double french door and painting it with several coats of paint, performing several electrical jobs including installation of a chandelier, and replacing a kitchen faucet. Throughout the time, they were personable yet professional. I'm was pleasantly surprised by the exceptional quality of their work considering how many different skills and areas of expertise were needed to complete all of the work. I wouldn't think twice before calling them again."
Yes, you can technically use a pressure washer to remove paint from brick, but it comes with a significant risk of damaging the brick surface. A high-power pressure washer can be fast but may leave the brick looking unsightly. The recommended method is to first apply a chemical paint stripper, following the product's instructions, and then use a stiff metal bristle brush or a pressure washer on a low-pressure setting to remove the loosened paint. Due to the risk of damage, it is often best to hire a professional who can use low-stress methods.
Penetrating sealer seeps into concrete pores to protect it from moisture and staining, cracking, and mold caused by water. This means you cannot remove penetrating sealers like topical sealers. The good news is that penetrating sealant doesn’t have to be removed before resealing, as most topical sealers must. Instead, you’ll want to buy a compatible penetrating sealant (often the same kind already in the concrete) and apply it. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance—so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.
While not all homes built before 1978 contain lead paint, enough do, so you’ll still want to test to be on the safe side. The federal government banned lead-based paint for homes in 1978, but your state may have banned lead before that time. Around 24% of homes built between 1960 and 1977 contained lead-based paint, while 87% of homes built before 1940 contained lead-based paint.
The best way to remove lead paint is by wet hand sanding and removing all dust and residue with a HEPA vacuum. Professionals may also strip and scrape lead-based paint with a paint scraper. In some cases, you may choose to have a pro encapsulate or enclose your lead-based paint surface by covering it with a sealant or a new material. You may also choose to replace the material altogether.
