We painted the whole first floor of a place in Jamaica Plain last year. The owner told us he expected a flat, boring rental-style job. It came out crisp, no drips, no paint anywhere near the trim. He was surprised, and that tells you something. People's expectations for painters around here are low because so many rush the prep.

We do interior painting across Boston and the North Shore, and prep is where we spend our time. Taping right, sanding the rough spots, filling the dings before a drop of paint goes on. That is the part that decides whether the job looks good or looks cheap. Here are the painting jobs we get asked for most.

Wall Painting

Whole rooms, single walls, a full floor of a house. We tape it, prep it, and roll it so you get clean lines and an even coat with no roller marks or patchy spots that need a third go-round. Old plaster walls take paint differently than new drywall, and we adjust for it. See our wall painting work.

Interior Surface Painting

Trim, baseboards, crown molding, window casings, ceilings. The detail work that makes a room look finished instead of half-done. It is slow, careful painting and it is easy to mess up if you rush it. This is our interior surface painting service.

Door Painting

People forget about their doors until a fresh wall makes the beat-up door next to it look worse. We paint interior doors and front doors, sand and prime first so the finish is smooth and does not peel in a season. More on door painting.

Drywall Painting

After a drywall patch or a new wall goes in, it needs to be primed and painted so the repair disappears into the rest of the wall. We handle the painting right after the repair so the spot blends in and you would never know it was there. Here is our drywall painting service.

Family Handyman covers plenty on interior painting prep if you want to see why it matters so much. We are an owner-operated shop based in Melrose, the same community you will find in the Melrose Chamber of Commerce.
