"Leon (MDT) was very responsive in providing a fair estimate and showing up to perform the requested work as stated. He did a great job on all of the exterior painting and stucco patching. I would use him again and recommend MDT for any painting job you may have."

"Harald is great! He was able to accommodate my quick timeline. He painted the entire house and it looks wonderful. He was always willing to offer opinions on what would look best and what kind of paint/sheen to use. He was reasonably priced and pays a lot of attention to details. I would definitely hire again."

"CertaPro Painters did a great job painting all my wrought iron security bars , rails and doors. Dewayne did a great job of masking (there was a lot) making sure only the surfaces painted were painted. Dewayne was always on time (sometimes a little early), was courteous and respectful of me and my dog. He did a great job of cleaning up. Also, the price quoted was a great price. I would highly recommend and use them again."

"I'm so glad I found this company. They were quick to respond to my request. On time and got to work right away. We had them do a paint job and ended up having them do some stucco patch work as well. Both jobs turned out great. They are professional, friendly, and reasonable. We will definitely be working with them in the future."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:

  • Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot

  • Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project

  • Encapsulation: $4 per square foot

  • Enclosure: $10 per square foot

  • Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot

First off, take a breath. The good news is that interior paint, especially when used outside, won’t harm your health. The bad news is that you’re going to have to reapply the proper exterior paint at some point in the not-so-distant future. Otherwise the current coat will chip, crack, and fade, or worse, develop mold or an insect infestation without remediation.

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.

Yes, WD-40 can be used to remove dried paint, including spray paint, from surfaces like metal because it acts as a solvent. To use this method, spray enough WD-40 to completely cover the paint and let it sit for five to ten minutes. Afterward, gently scrub the area with a cloth to remove the paint. Be aware that this method might leave behind a greasy film that can attract dirt.
