"Brooks was a joy to work with and very detailed in his painting and clean up. We had our interior walls painted as well as the trim on all our windows. He was very personable and was always at work when he said he would be and finished the job on time and on budget! I highly recommend working with him! I will work with him again this year as soon as I pick out colours for the upstairs rooms."

"I hired Terry and his company to make repairs on my rental property. In addition to repairing drywall, he also fixed skylights, painted the entire, removed trash, removed carpeting, fixed ruts in the muddy yard, removed remaining trash from house, etc. His workmanship is impeccable. He takes pride in completing a job and doing it well. I live out of state. He went above and beyond in a difficult situation. I highly recommend him and would definitely rehire."

Interior Painting FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Costs range from $2 to $7 per square foot, depending on surface type, paint layers, and removal method.

One of the most significant benefits of hiring a professional painter is that they complete the task faster and better. Generally, it takes about a day to paint a room, depending on dry time. If you're painting your entire house or the exterior of your home, that's a lot of time spent with a paintbrush in hand. Outsourcing this project to a painting pro will save you countless hours.

Other benefits of hiring a professional painter include:

  • Quality experience with painting 

  • Assistance with choosing colors

  • Using the right tools for the job

  • Extensive product knowledge

If you recently splashed paint on the wrong area of a wooden object, remove it with a solvent or caustic paint stripper. Some paint that has yet to dry may be removable by hand with coarse sandpaper or a plastic scraper. Another trick for removing dried-on paint is rubbing a dab of nail polish remover on the paint to remove it, but avoid touching the bare wood surface.

Soot can be harder to remove compared to other types of stains given its acidic nature. It can also cause underlying paint to peel off during the cleaning process. If your soot issue is a result of smoke damage, it’s recommended you call a pro to help remove it versus doing it yourself.
