Update Your Home With A Fresh Coat Of Paint

Quite often, decorating with paint and colors can transform any home without having to remodel, so what better time to do it than NOW!

The most cost effective and quickest home improvement project is interior painting. You can transform the look of a room or your entire house just by using paint. With the right colors, the feel of a room can change completely and become a more enjoyable living space.

STEP 1 – COLOR SELECTION

The easiest way to choose the best interior paint colors is to start with the colors you love. When you start with the hues you love, you are not bound by the traditional color schemes for a particular decorating style. Using your favorite color as your base color, you can use it to create a color scheme around it. 

STEP 2 – PROTECT YOUR BELONGINGS 

We cover the furniture and floors with a new, clean piece of protective plastic sheeting. We also protect your floors with drop cloths, taking care to secure every inch of the room. 

STEP 3 – PREPARATION 

Preparing your walls, ceilings, and other surfaces is a major step that should never be skipped to ensure that the new paint lasts for years to come.

Part of preparing the room or area to be painted includes cleaning your walls before the project begins. Painting over grime and dirt will not do you any favors when it comes to the longevity of your project. Before painting, your home may need a few other things, such as sanding rough surfaces, caulking loose baseboards, or patching holes.

STEP 4 – PRIME & APPLY NEW PAINT 

Paint primer creates an even base that your paint adheres to for its best look and for longer wear. Primer also covers dark colors or uneven wall color, due to staining or other factors. After we apply the new paint you have just one job.

We go through inspection with you & check around the house, looking for touch-ups that can be done immediately, ensuring that you are completely satisfied with your final product!

TRIM & MOLDINGS 

If your interior has trim and moldings, another great interior project for the fall and winter is to freshen them up with a new coat of paint or stain. And if your home currently doesn’t have trim and molding, consider adding these features to the interior.

BONUS TIP 

Ceilings don’t get a lot of attention, but they’re a great project for fall and winter. When given a new coat of paint, ceilings can help bring the room together in a fresh way. A new coat of ceiling paint can also help illuminate a room, if you were to choose a white or light color. Similarly, a coat of dark paint will darken the room, helping to make it cozy for the winter.

PAINT REMOVAL & DRYWALL SERVICES 

In addition to interior & exterior painting we also offer additional services such as: 

  • Removing dangerous lead paint from your walls and replacing it with a new, safer paint job.
  • Repairing your drywall or plaster ceilings and walls.
  • Removing popcorn ceilings for a more updated look.
