Cracks, holes, or water damage on walls and ceilings aren’t just cosmetic — they get worse over time. Fixing them early saves you bigger headaches later.
• Looks better: Clean, smooth walls instantly change the whole space.
• Protects your home: Solid repairs keep the structure sound.
• Professional touch: Done right, the repair blends in so well, no one can tell it was ever damaged.
Wood weathers. It cracks, rots, fades. Leave it too long, and you’ll be replacing it entirely.
• Protection: Stops rot and prevents further damage.
• Beauty: Restores the natural look of wood.
• Value: Well-kept wood details keep your home’s value high.
Preparation is everything. We clear the walls, move furniture to the center, cover it, protect floors, and make sure surfaces are ready before the first brush hits the wall.
It depends on the mood you want:
• Light tones open up the space and make it brighter.
• Dark tones create depth and coziness. The best choice comes from balancing your style, your lighting, and the overall vibe you want. We help you find the right one.
• Protect floors and trim.
• Patch holes and imperfections.
• “Cut in” edges with a brush.
• Apply two even coats with a roller — no rushing. Smooth, durable, professional results.
• Flat: hides imperfections, but not washable.
• Eggshell/Satin: versatile, stylish, and easy to clean.
• Semi-gloss: great for doors and trim — tough and wipeable.
• Gloss: maximum shine, used sparingly.
• Power wash — remove dirt, dust, old paint.
• Scrape and sand surfaces.
• Fill cracks, caulk gaps.
• Prime. • Apply two coats of premium paint (Sherwin-Williams or Dunn Edwards).
• Remove or tape off hardware.
• Light sanding for perfect adhesion.
• Use a fine roller or sprayer for that smooth, factory finish.
Protect floors and walls with paper and tape. Use a quality brush or a small roller. Trim should look sharp — no splatters, no overspray.
Use a flat, dead-flat paint. Roll in one direction, let it dry, then roll the second coat perpendicular. For a flawless result, spraying is the best option.
Scrape off the loose paint, sand the area, patch if needed, prime, and repaint. Skipping any step means the problem comes back.
Depends on the square footage and the surface. Smooth walls use less, textured walls more. We calculate it for you so you don’t overspend or run short.
Always use high-quality tape. Press it down firmly to prevent bleed-through. Remove it while the paint is still slightly wet for the cleanest lines.
A gallon usually covers about 300 sq. ft. when rolling, 200 sq. ft. when spraying. But it’s not just square footage — it’s also about surface, number of coats, and condition of the walls. • Bedrooms usually take 2 gallons. • Living rooms or family rooms can take 3. • Bathrooms and closets often need 1. Want to skip the math? We calculate exactly what you need so you don’t overbuy or run out mid-job.
Moisture changes everything. That’s why we use semi-gloss or specialized paints with a vapor barrier — they resist mold and stand up to scrubbing. The process is all about precision: prep, seal, cut in, and apply two durable coats that last.
Yes, but not with shortcuts. The right way: seal with a stain-blocking primer, let it cure, then apply two solid coats of paint. Done properly, the wallpaper underneath never shows through.
Depends on type and conditions: • Latex paint: about 1 hour to touch, 4 hours for a recoat. • Oil-based paint: 6–8 hours to touch, 24 hours for a recoat. • Humidity and poor airflow slow it down — we set up the room for faster, cleaner drying.
If you’re painting yourself: • Cover floors and furniture — paint splatter is unforgiving. • Remove outlet covers. • Always cut in with a brush before rolling. • Don’t skimp on coats — two is the standard for a pro finish. But honestly? Hiring pros saves you time, cleanup, and the frustration of uneven results.
It depends on size, prep work, and paint quality. A small house may start around a few thousand, while larger homes with detailed trim or repairs run higher. What matters is durability — cutting corners outside means repainting sooner.
Refinishing cabinets is far more budget-friendly than replacing them. Pricing depends on kitchen size, prep work, and finish. Typically, it’s a fraction of the cost of new cabinetry — with just as much impact.
Wallpaper removal can be quick — or a nightmare. Cost depends on how it was applied, how many layers, and the wall condition. Hiring a pro saves walls from damage and preps the surface perfectly for new paint.
Big chains show you glossy stock photos. Local painters show you real work. We know Austin homes, Texas weather, and what actually holds up in this climate. When you hire local, you’re not just paying for paint — you’re investing in proven results.
• Interior: usually every 5–7 years, sooner if you’ve got kids, pets, or heavy traffic. • Exterior: every 7–10 years in Texas sun and weather. Repainting on time protects your home and saves money long-term.
We work with Sherwin-Williams. Why? Because cheap paint fades fast, peels quicker, and ends up costing more. Quality paint means fewer repaints and better results.
Any company can buy stock images. Real painting companies show real projects. Our portfolio is packed with hundreds of before-and-after photos from Austin and nearby areas. You see the difference. You see the quality.
Yes. Picking a color isn’t just about taste — lighting, room size, and style all matter. We help you choose shades that match your home and create the effect you want.
Look for three things: • Licensed and insured. • Real before/after photos, not internet images. • Local reviews from real clients. If a painter can’t show you these, walk away.
Yes. When we leave, the only thing different in your home should be freshly painted walls. No tape left behind, no trash.
