Do I need to move all the furniture?
No. Move small items and anything fragile; we shift larger pieces to the middle of the room, cover them and protect the floors before starting.
Inside or out, the prep gets as much attention as the paint: patching, sanding, scraping and priming first, with floors and furniture covered while we work.
A paint job looks good for years when the surface underneath was cleaned, patched, sanded and primed properly. Skipping that is how peeling starts. We spell out the prep in the written scope so you know what you're paying for.
In homes built before 1978, lead paint may be present, and that changes how surfaces are prepared. We'll talk about it before work starts.
Walls and ceilings patched, sanded and painted, with trim and doors done in a durable finish suited to how much handling they get.
Kitchen or bath cabinets cleaned, deglossed, primed and painted, a lower-cost way to refresh a room when the cabinet boxes are still solid.
Loose paint scraped, damaged wood repaired where needed and gaps caulked, then primer and finish coats on the body, trim and doors.
Matte finishes forgive uneven walls; satin and semi-gloss wipe clean better in hallways, kitchens and on trim. Each surface gets the sheen that suits how it's used.
Outdoor paint won't bond or dry right on damp wood or in a cold snap, so the days for exterior work get picked by watching the forecast.
Scraping sometimes reveals soft wood or damaged trim. If it does, you'll get a written price to repair it before anything is painted over.
No. Move small items and anything fragile; we shift larger pieces to the middle of the room, cover them and protect the floors before starting.
Usually two finish coats, plus primer where we've patched or where the color is changing dramatically. The written scope states the coats for each surface.
A few rooms, the whole interior, the outside trim that's starting to peel. Describe the job and we'll go over how much prep it needs, how long it should take and what pushes the price up or down.
