Interior Painting

What's included in a interior painting project

Good interior work starts before the paint is opened. Floors and nearby surfaces are covered, small wall imperfections are addressed, and edges are masked where needed. The goal is an even finish and a work area that stays organized while the job is underway.

What can be included

  • Surface inspection and prep
  • Minor nail-hole and patch touch-ups
  • Protection for floors, trim, and furniture
  • Professional paint application
  • Final walkthrough for touch-ups

Planning the work

Planning an interior painting project

A useful estimate starts with the surfaces you want painted and the condition they are in now. Wall repairs, trim, ceilings, doors, and major color changes can all change the scope.

Walls and ceilings

Scuffs, nail holes, cracks, stains, and previous repairs should be identified before painting. Ceilings are estimated separately when they are part of the project.

Trim and doors

Baseboards, window trim, door casings, and doors involve different preparation and application work than walls. Tell us which of these surfaces you want included.

Color and sheen

Color changes and finish selection affect the work. Kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, and trim may call for different sheen choices than bedrooms and living areas.

Your estimate

What affects the scope

  • Room size and ceiling height
  • Wall condition and needed repairs
  • Ceilings, trim, doors, and closets included
  • Number of colors and size of the color change
  • Access, furniture, and occupied work areas

Common questions

Interior Painting FAQs

Do walls need to be repaired before painting?

Holes, cracks, loose material, and other surface damage may need attention before painting. The amount of preparation depends on the condition of the walls and the finish being applied.

Do I need to move furniture before the painters arrive?

Furniture may need to be moved away from the walls or out of the work area depending on the room and project. We can discuss what needs to be moved before the work begins.

Do you paint ceilings, trim, and doors?

Ceilings, trim, and doors can be included as part of an interior painting project. Let us know what you want painted so those surfaces can be included when the project is reviewed.

Does every wall need primer before painting?

Not always. Primer may be needed on bare or repaired areas, stains, certain color changes, or surfaces where adhesion could be an issue. The condition of the existing surface helps determine what preparation is needed.
