Our Painters Go Through a Thorough Vetting Process

One of the ways that we set ourselves apart from the competition is by hiring our interior house painters as employees as opposed to working with independent contractors. This gives us more control over who we hire, how they are trained and how they are supervised during an interior house painting project. Prior to being hired, all of our workers are vetted to ensure that they are able to meet our high standards. Doing so helps to ensure that a job will be done right the first time.

Your Satisfaction Is Guaranteed

We understand how easy it is to find a painting professional just by typing painters near me into a search engine. However, if you do choose to work with us, we'll do whatever it takes to meet your expectations. To put your mind at ease, we guarantee our work for two years, which means that you won't have to worry about paying to fix any mistakes that we might make.

We Offer Free Estimates

There are a variety of factors that will determine how much a project will cost to complete. For instance, it will likely cost less to paint a single room than it will to paint the entire interior. The price that you pay will also depend on how much prep work will need to be done, the type of paint that you choose and the project timeline. We offer free estimates to all of our prospective customers as a means of helping them make an educated decision. We'll also provide suggestions as to the type of paint, color scheme or other variables that you should consider to make a space look its best.

What Type of Paint Should Be Used Inside a Home?

In a bathroom, kitchen or other space that tends to be warm or moist, it is generally a good idea to use a high gloss paint. Although it's easier to see mold, mildew or other imperfections on paints that have a higher level of sheen to them, it's also easier to keep them clean.

Conversely, you might want to use a matte, eggshell or similar type of product in a bedroom, hallway or other space that sees a high level of traffic. Although they may be slightly harder to clean, they are more effective at hiding fingerprints, scuffs and other types of imperfections.

In addition to the amount of sheen a paint has, it is also important to consider how toxic it might be. Ideally, you'll choose a product that has a low level of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This is especially important when painting an interior space because fumes can persist long after a project is completed. Therefore, even if your home is properly ventilated while it's being painted, you could still get sick if there isn't sufficient airflow in a given area.

What Color Should You Paint an Interior Space?

The colors that you choose depend on the mood that you want to create in a given space. For instance, you'll likely want to use cooler colors in a bedroom. This is because they will help you fall asleep after a long day at work, school or doing yard work. Warmer colors such as red, orange or yellow may be ideal for a home office as you'll want to feel motivated and energetic throughout your work day.

It's also important to consider the color scheme throughout the rest of a space when deciding what color to paint the walls, ceilings or other surfaces. For instance, if you have dark cabinets in the kitchen, you may want to use lighter colors on the walls. If you have white carpet in the living room, it might be a good idea to consider painting a wall brown or black.

How Long Will Your Project Take?

We offer flexible hours to ensure that your home is painted as quickly as possible without sacrificing quality. This allows us to minimize the disruption that an interior house painting job may cause to your daily routine. Depending on the scope of the project, it may be possible to finish our work in a matter of hours.
