Painting services
Every job starts with preparation. What we do on the day depends on the surfaces and the condition they're in.
Interior painting
We paint the inside of lived-in homes, from one room to the whole house. Floors and furniture are covered before we start, and we tidy up at the end of each day.
- Walls
- Ceilings
- Stairwells
- Trim and baseboards
- Doors and frames
Exterior painting
Siding, trim and porches, prepared and painted. Previously painted vinyl or aluminium siding is checked at the estimate visit. Exterior work is planned around suitable weather, so dates can move.
- Wood clapboard and fiber-cement siding
- Trim, fascia and soffits
- Doors and shutters
- Porches, railings and steps
Surface preparation and minor repairs
Prep is most of the work, and it's the part you don't see once the paint is on. Washing is done only as paint prep.
- Protection of floors, furniture, fixtures and plants
- Cleaning and washing as prep
- Scraping and sanding
- Filling and caulking
- Small drywall patches
- Spot priming
Cabinet and built-in repainting
Kitchen and bathroom cabinets, shelving and built-in units, prepared and repainted. We talk at the estimate visit about keeping rooms usable where possible.
- Kitchen cabinets
- Bathroom cabinets
- Shelving
- Built-in units
Color sampling
A color can look different on a small chip than on your wall. We paint sample patches or boards so you can judge colors in your own light before committing.
- Painted sample patches
- Painted sample boards
- Your chosen colors listed in the written scope
What we don't do
If your job is mainly one of these, we're not the right fit.
- Roof coatings
- Wallpaper installation
- Brick, stone and stucco masonry coatings
- Structural or major carpentry and rot replacement (flagged for a carpenter)
- Commercial buildings
- Standalone pressure washing (washing is done only as paint prep)
