Interior Painting
Some assume that because large ladders may not be involved in an interior project, it can be completed by anyone with the time and gumption. The truth is, interior painting techniques take years to master. The tell-tale signs of a professional job include:
- Crisp, straight, cut lines
- Even coverage (especially important in natural lit areas)
- Consistent surface texture
- No drips, sags or streaks
Successful projects start with a detailed, written scope of work that clearly communicates how a job will be executed and its cost. A high quality paint job does not only include the final product, but also the process in which the final product is achieved. North Stream Painting employs professionals that respect your home, and your family.
Standard procedures for interior painting include:
- Protecting floors and furniture with drop cloths and plastic
- Filling dents, cracks, nail pops, and any other surface imperfections with spackle and then sanding down to a smooth finish
- Caulking baseboards that are pulling away from the wall
- Taping all woodwork including: baseboards, window/door casings, crown molding
- Painting with a quality paint from Sherwin Williams
Wall paper removal can be a tricky task. The ease or difficulty of wallpaper removal can depend on several factors such as:
- Was the wall "sized" (was a special primer used prior to paper hanging)?
- What type of adhesive was used?
- What type of paper was used?
Typically, once wallpaper and residual adhesive has been removed, a skim coat (thin coat of joint compound) is needed to fill surface imperfections. The surface then needs to be primed prior to painting.
With the proper know-how and techniques, North Stream Painting can transform your wallpaper nightmare into a designer's dream.
