Common Questions & Clear Answers
We believe in being straight with you. Whether you want to know about the science behind our coatings or the details of our prep work, we are happy to explain. Our goal is to make sure you feel completely confident in us and our process before we even start the project.
We handle all types of interior and exterior painting with a focus on high-end results. Beyond just painting walls, we specialize in kitchen cabinet refinishing, brick limewashing, and installing custom accent walls like shiplap or board and batten. We also install durable garage floor tile systems to help finish off your space.
We use a four-step process to make sure the finish lasts. We start with thorough cleaning and sanding, followed by high-quality primers to keep wood stains from bleeding through. Finally, we spray on professional-grade coatings for a smooth, durable finish that looks like it came straight from the factory.
Whitewash is basically just watered-down paint that sits on top of the brick. Limewash is a natural mineral coating that actually soaks into the brick and bonds with it. It is a much better choice because it lets the brick breathe, which prevents cracking and peeling, and it develops a beautiful soft look as it ages.
Good prep is what makes a paint job last. On the outside of your home, we scrape off old paint, sand down the rough edges, and prime any bare wood. For interiors, we fix drywall cracks and match the texture so the walls are perfectly smooth before we even open a can of paint.
We offer high-end work at a fair price. Since we are a local, family-owned business and not a franchise, we do not have to pay corporate fees or royalties. This allows us to use better materials and provide more personal service without charging you extra to cover a big company's overhead.
We offer free estimates that we can do in person or virtually. When we look at your home, we check things like sun exposure and moisture to make sure we are using the right products for your specific environment. We keep communication clear and the whole process simple from the first call to the final walkthrough.
