What we paint.
Most paint jobs are a mix: a few rooms inside, some trim outside, a ceiling with a crack in it. We handle all of it, including the wall repair that has to happen first.

01 — Interior painting
Inside, the prep is the job.
Paint only looks as good as the wall under it. Before we open a can, we fill the holes and cracks, sand the patches smooth and caulk the gaps in the trim. That's the part you don't see in the finished room, and it's why the lines stay clean and the patches don't show through.
Every interior job
- Floors and furniture covered before we start
- Holes, dents and cracks patched and sanded
- Gaps in the trim caulked
- Clean, straight lines at ceilings and trim
- Cleanup every day, broom-clean at the end
02 — Exterior painting
Outside, it has to survive New England.
Snow, wind and summer sun are hard on paint. Most peeling starts with paint that went on over a bad surface. So the prep comes first, every time, before the finish coats go on.
- 01ScrapeLoose and peeling paint comes off.
- 02SandRough edges feathered so they don't show through.
- 03PrimeBare wood gets primer so the paint has something to grip.
- 04CaulkSeams and gaps sealed against water.
- 05PaintFinish coats on a dry day.
We paint outside from late spring into fall, on dry days. If you want it done by summer, call us in the spring.
Old walls, wallpaper and plaster.
New England has a lot of old homes, and old homes have wallpaper and plaster. It's slow, messy work, and it's where a good paint job really starts.

Skim coating & plaster repair
Plaster cracks, and taking off wallpaper can leave a wall rough. A skim coat is a thin layer of compound spread over the whole wall and sanded smooth. We also patch plaster, and do plaster work on new construction.

Painting questions
It depends on the size of the room, the shape the walls are in and how much trim there is. We don't guess over the phone. We come look and give you a written price, free.
