"1 day ago We are very pleased with the drywall repair and painting that Matt did for us. He painted the ceiling and walls over the stairwell along with ceiling and drywall repairs/painting. He was very considerate, asked us when necessary to confirm our wished and he communicated any concerns he had. He was patient with my indecisions at times. He improved on our wishes and still charged us a reasonable price BELOW his estimate. As a homeowners we couldn't be more pleased,"

"Javier is the best! He tore up old carpet flooring and installed wood floors incredibly fast and did an amazing job. We also hired him for some interior painting that was done in no time and looks great. We would absolutely use him again for all our flooring and painting needs!"

"Fernando did both interior and exterior painting at my home. His work is outstanding! He is extremely meticulous and pays attention to every detail. He leaves the home in clean and perfect condition during the project. I have had him complete several painting jobs and have always been very pleased with the finished product! I highly recommend him! I would give him 10 stars if I could!"

"We used Anton and his team for remodeling our basement and garage after we had water damage. They put up replacement pieces of sheetrock which looked amazing. Absolutely no lines just perfectly level walls. Their workmanship was outstanding. The owner was on site a lot of the time and his team worked very neatly. The painting was simply outstanding. The room looks like brand new. Pricing was extremely fair especially for such quality, high end work. Anton and European Craftsman will be our only call the next time we need work done. Thank you Anton!"

"I contracted with E&S to finish a sun room and construct a porch, jobs that required precision woodworking and painting. At each stage of my projects, Edgar and his team flexibly handled changes I decided I wanted and executed the work flawlessly with care and concern. I trust their judgment and now have the pleasure of admiring their excellent handiwork. I heartily recommend Edgar and his team…"

"Fantastic experience from start to finish! Jerry was knowledgeable, hardworking, efficient, and delivered excellent quality. He came in to fix a painting project that had already been started, which wasn’t the easiest situation, and did an amazing job turning it around. His attention to detail and pride in his work really showed. It’s not easy finding someone who works quickly without sacrificing quality. I would absolutely recommend Jerry and wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again!"

"Jim and his team were top-notch. They were punctual and responsive throughout the entire process of painting our home and doing electrical updates. I would recommend A-1 Painting/Improvements to anyone. Jim is also really great for first-time homeowners like ourselves, explaining things along the way and helping us understand the renovation project. A truly great experience!"

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

You can remove powder coating with a chemical stripper, in a burn-off oven, or by sandblasting. Chemical strippers can remove most powder coatings in 20 minutes or less. But they are harsh and must be treated with care.

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.

The biggest issue with painting your interior walls with exterior paint isn’t the way the paint looks or performs—it’s the lack of ventilation. The higher quantities of VOCs in exterior paint will have a harder time dispersing in an enclosed space, so do everything you can to direct them out—like turning on a fan and opening your windows and doors. Afterward, you can simply prime and redo your walls with interior paint, and no one will know the difference.

While a pressure washer is certainly powerful enough to remove old and peeling paint, this is not a great idea to do yourself. The pressure washer is so powerful that you could actually damage the walls as you strip away the paint. It’s best to leave paint stripping to the pros. 

Yes, many professionals use non-toxic removers and dust-free sanding techniques.
