Paint is the cheapest way to change how a house feels and the easiest place to spot a rushed job. We spend the time on prep, because that is the part you can still see five years later.
Anyone can roll a wall. What separates a paint job that still looks sharp in year five from one that fails in month eight is everything that happens before the first coat: filling and sanding, caulking gaps, spot-priming stains and patches, and masking properly instead of cutting freehand and hoping. We budget real hours for prep and do not shortcut it to hit a lower number.
Drywall and paint belong together, which is why we do both. A patch finished by someone who will not be painting it tends to be flat but visible; a patch finished by the person holding the brush gets feathered and textured until it vanishes. Older Delco housing stock in particular — plaster walls, skim coats, decades of settling cracks — needs that kind of attention rather than a quick smear of compound.
Whole-house repaints, single rooms, ceilings, trim and doors, stairwells, and closets. Furniture moved and covered, floors protected, cut lines that are actually straight.
Siding, trim, soffit and fascia, porches, railings and shutters, with scraping, sanding and priming of bare and failing areas before topcoat.
New drywall for additions, basements and remodels — hung, taped and finished to a consistent level ready for paint.
Holes, cracks, nail pops, corner bead damage, and ceiling repair after a leak, including cutting back to sound material rather than skinning over a problem.
Knockdown, orange peel, skip trowel and hand-applied plaster texture blended into the surrounding wall so the repair does not read as a rectangle.
Once the leak itself is fixed, we replace the compromised drywall or plaster, treat and seal stains so they do not bleed through, and rebuild the finish.

Yes. We move what can be moved, center and cover the rest, and protect floors. You do not need to empty the room before we arrive, though clearing small items and valuables helps.
Two finish coats as standard, plus spot or full primer where the surface calls for it — bare drywall, patches, stains, or a dramatic color change. One coat over a similar color is a shortcut that shows up in raking light.
Usually, yes. A lot of Delaware County housing has plaster rather than drywall, and it takes a different approach — bonding agent, skim coats, and hand-worked texture. It is slower than patching drywall, and we will tell you up front if a wall is better skimmed wall-to-wall than spot-patched.
Quality mid-to-upper tier product appropriate to the surface — washable finishes in high traffic areas, moisture-rated in bathrooms and kitchens, exterior-grade acrylic outside. If you have a brand or color you want, we will use it.
