Most of what makes a paint job last happens before the first coat: patching, caulking, sanding and priming bare spots. We do that work properly, then cut in clean lines and roll even coats. Rooms, whole houses, trim, doors, offices and shops.
From living rooms and trim to siding, doors and porches, we handle interior and exterior painting as one coordinated job. Prep, prime and finish coats are done carefully so the color looks even and the paint holds up.
New construction needs a clean first coat: priming raw drywall and trim, sealing knots, and applying finish coats that look sharp for walkthroughs and move-in. We work with builders and homeowners on additions, renovations and brand-new spaces.
Years of dirt, mildew and chalky, flaking paint come off in an afternoon. We wash before painting so the new coating actually bonds, and we also wash on its own when a house, deck or driveway just needs freshening up.
Mold on siding, shaded trim, bathroom ceilings and basement walls gets cleaned and treated before anything is painted over it. If it keeps coming back, there is usually a moisture problem behind it, and we will tell you what we see.
Holes, water-damaged sections, cut-outs for new work. We hang or patch the board, tape, mud and sand it flush, then prime it so the repair disappears under paint.
Older New England homes are full of plaster walls with cracks, bulges and old patches. We secure what is loose, fill and skim the rest, and leave a smooth surface ready for primer.
Vinyl and aluminum siding can be painted, but it has to be done right: a thorough wash, the correct paint, and colors that are safe for vinyl. Very dark colors absorb heat and can warp vinyl, so we help you choose a shade that looks good and holds up.
We apply texture on new work, match an existing finish after a repair, or skim textured walls and ceilings smooth when the look is dated.
If your cabinets are solid but tired, refinishing is a practical alternative to replacing them. Doors and hardware come off, everything is degreased, sanded and primed, then finished in the color you pick.
Decks take sun, snow and rain all year. We clean off the gray and mildew, sand rough spots, and apply stain or paint that protects the wood and brings back the color.
Clogged gutters spill water down siding, rot fascia boards and soak the foundation. We clear them out by hand and flush the downspouts so water goes where it should.
We scrape and smooth popcorn ceilings, or seal them when removal is not the right call. In homes built before the 1980s the texture can contain asbestos, so we recommend testing before any scraping begins.
Old wallpaper and glue come off, the wall gets repaired and primed, and new paper goes up with tight seams and a straight pattern. We also remove wallpaper if you just want a painted wall.
