Interior Prep and Paint Process

• Job Site Preparation

Before any painting, priming, or surface preparation begins, we properly mask and cover your home or work area to ensure complete protection for every space.

• Furniture, Fixtures, and Surface Protection

• Taping and Masking Edges

This step is key to ensuring a professional and superior appearance throughout the entire project. Applying precise, straight tape lines during the masking phase keeps the site looking clean and produces a finished product with flawlessly sharp edges.

• Repair and Patching

Resolving surface imperfections is critical for successful paint application. Our knowledgeable team diligently patches and repairs all cracks, holes, and flaws to prepare surfaces properly for primer or paint.

• Surface Cleaning

A spotless surface is the foundation of superior painting results. We accomplish this through sanding and filling holes, followed by thorough cleaning to eliminate all dust, dirt, and debris prior to priming or painting.

• Priming for Adhesion

We apply superior oil-based or water-based primers to create a smooth, uniform foundation that prevents staining and increases the paint job’s durability and longevity.

• Caulking

To establish clean lines and seal gaps, we use high-quality caulks around trim, baseboards, and all painted surfaces. Quality oil or water-based caulking offers durability during expansion and contraction, and outlasts budget alternatives significantly.

• Ventilation and Environment Control

We maintain proper ventilation throughout the painting process. Effective airflow speeds drying times and contributes to better indoor air quality. We also monitor environmental factors, such as humidity levels, to ensure optimal paint performance. Both air movers and scrubbers keep air circulating during the process, which maintains quality standards on every project.

• Paint Application

• Trim Painting

Two coats of enamel trim paint or hybrid Enamel Urethane trim paint are spray-applied to ensure smooth, consistent coverage. If site expectations or conditions require brushing or rolling, we use lighter trim paints with better self-leveling qualities to deliver a quality finish.

• Ceiling Painting

In full interior projects, ceilings are almost always spray-painted. Smaller projects or ceiling-only jobs are completed with brush and roller methods. Ceilings are always addressed first, and the application technique is selected based on each job’s specific requirements and client preferences.

• Wall Painting

Wall surfaces are usually brushed and rolled. When a home or building is being painted in one sheen and color, we often spray the walls and ceilings together and back-roll throughout. Fine roller naps are applied to smooth wall surfaces for even texture, while standard-sized naps are used on orange peel textured walls for adequate coverage and efficiency.
