Start with the surface

A lasting paint job begins with clean, sound surfaces. Peeling paint, glossy finishes, gaps and damaged areas should be addressed before the finish coat.

Careful preparation helps the new coating look even and perform as intended.

Choose products for the space

Interior rooms, cabinets and exterior surfaces face different wear and weather. The product and sheen should match how the area is used.

Confirm the scope

A written estimate should identify the surfaces, preparation, colors and finish included.

Clear expectations help the work move smoothly from the first day through cleanup.
