"Used an alternate web site to send our request for a bid to multiple contractors for drywall and painting work.  Adobe called me within 20 minutes of submitting the request, which was unexpected.  We actually had 2 other vendors also call within the first 2 hours which was amazing.  
Brian said he could come by that afternoon to give us an estimate.  We have a flat roof and had a hole in the roof after a snowstorm.  The roof leaked off and on for days due to freeze/unfreeeze of the standing water and snow on the roof.  After we got the roof fixed, we had a caved in roof in the corner of one of our bedrooms.  Brian came by and explained what they would do to fix the problem which included:
- removal of all dry wall
- removal of all damaged insulation
- replacement and refinishing of all dry wall and insulation
- repainting the entire room
Brian gave us confidence in his ability to deliver so we actually had him give us a separate estimate to paint our bathroom and 2nd bedroom while he was there.  After the estimates, his prices were reasonable and were in the same price range of our 2 other bids.  They were not the cheapest but they gave us the most confidence so we went with them.
Brian had a job that was delayed at another job site the day he was to start at our house, so he showed up with a full crew instead of just 2 guys like he told us.  They tore out the drywall and insulation for the damaged areas, left the room to dry and proceeded to paint the other bedroom and bathroom.  They came the following day to repair the drywall and put in new insulation.  The damage was more than what was originally estimated and Brian only charged for the extra material which was nominal.  They sanded and repainted the bedroom drywall a day later.  A day later, they finished the painting.
We expected, with the work to be done, it would take about 5 days.  His crew got everything done in 3 days start to finish.  Brian's dad came along to direct traffic and was just a great guy to talk to while his team was working.  Just a nicely run family business.
AFter completion, we got an estimate to paint our master bedroom and bathroom which we plan to do in the spring.  We will use these guys again.

"Harald Christiansen is a painter who lives in Rio Rancho, NM. Recently Harold painted the interior of my house. I can't say enough good things about the job he did. Harold took a great deal of care in his work and was very thorough in all aspects of the job. Before starting painting, he was also very open to my ideas, and or suggestions. Throughout the job, he communicated anything that needed to be changed or addressed along the way so there were no surprises. Also, I felt him to be very honest in all his dealings with me. I felt very fortunate to have had such a positive experience in getting my house painted."

"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."

"We knew when we bought our home that we wanted it repainted. The big question was WHO. We are so glad we hired Mike with Van Meter Painting! We first hired him for a smaller portion of our home to see the quality of his work, and quickly knew he was the guy for the job of the rest of our home. He helped us find the right colors, was knowledgeable about colors and textures, and kept all his work areas very clean. We lived in our home the whole time, planning and adjusting to the daily schedule of a family with 3 young children. Mike always communicated arrival times and was never late. We love the colors we chose and how he was able to clean up old repairs and make our walls and trim look new. Highly recommend Mike for any painting job and look forward to our future painting projects with Van Meter Painting! We were so happy to have our house fresh in time for Thanksgiving!"

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

The best and fastest way to remove paint from a deck often involves combining a chemical stripper with a pressure washer. Gel-based paint strippers are highly recommended because their thick consistency makes them less messy and easier to apply than liquid strippers. After applying the stripper to loosen the paint, you can use a pressure washer to efficiently wash away the residue. When using a pressure washer for this task, it's important to use a low pressure (under 1000 PSI) to avoid forcing too much moisture into the wood, which could lead to mildew or rot.

Some methods of removing paint from metal that use physical force, like scraping or grinding, may damage the metal. Other methods like chemical strippers or acids are unlikely to damage the metal underneath, but take care using any method to strip paint to minimize the chance of damage.

Professional painters often use a Turpentine-based solution to remove paint, since it can remove oil-based paint as well as acrylics and varnishes. It’s also an organic material derived from tree resin, so it’s less toxic than traditional paint strippers. Consult a professional cabinet refinisher or painter about the best materials to use for paint stripping.

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.

It’s best to use a slightly slower-working paint remover that is safer to use, such as mineral spirits, because the strongest spray paint removers are often also the most toxic. Many of these products contain dangerous chemicals, such as methylene chloride, which the EPA banned for most uses in April 2024 after it was established as a major carcinogen.
