It's your home, your vision and our job.
Interior Anyone can put paint on interior walls. What distinguishes the professional painter is surface preparation and how much they get the paint where you don't want it. Neatness does count. We find that surface preparation is often a more important part of the job than applying paint and we are meticulous about our preparation standards. Protecting your furniture and floors from unwanted paint is also a priority and a matter of the very careful use of drop cloths. We have a huge collection of them - and more importantly, we take the time to use them. We also take the time to leave your space clean at the end of everyday, eliminating the risk of overnight accidents or bumps in the night. |
There is no getting around it, exterior walls are a tough environment for paint, especially in New England. Sun, rain, and wind are abusive, and as a result exterior surfaces often need serious scraping and filling before the actual paint application. In badly alligatored cases we have found that a 5-step process is necessary and very effective: Scrape and sand the alligators off, prime, fill with putty, sand, then paint 2 coats. It's not rocket science, but short-cuts only work for a short time. We have restored 100-year old alligatored paint to incredible beauty - and we can do it for you. |
Wood We can make your woodwork glow, regardless of whether it is new or old. Sanding, staining, and polyurethaning with one of the new incredibly tough water-based poly materials will restore and preserve your beautiful woodwork. |
Faux The ability to do faux painting separates the men from the boys. It's one of our specialties. Jack learned this skill in Ireland when he was an apprentice painter there. They don't have fancy woods like oak in Ireland, so he learned to paint faux oaks, mahogany and other exotic woods. |
