This project entailed removing wallpaper borders in two bathrooms and repainting.

These are the before pictures of a condo in Chesterfield – for this job one ceiling had to be painted due to water stains so it was sealed and painted. The rest of the work was baseboards, door trim (but not frames/doors) and the walls. The color was the very common Accessible Beige from Sherwin in SuperPaint flat and the ceiling was Brod-Dugan Suburban ceiling paint

These are the after pictures:

This was a trim only job – original wood was a medium-dark brown (same color as the stair rail) and customer wanted it white. One coat of bonding primer, three to four coats of white across the board. We did caulk a portion of the trim but none along the ceiling line that the customer will take care of later. There is also some green tape left on walls in the living room where the customer was painting some book cases.

This was an expensive job because the customer painted all their walls before choosing to paint the woodwork. I can’t stress enough how much easier it is to do before painting is done and how much better the work will look. When it is done after the fact it takes a monumental effort to protect the wall cut edges, the walls themselves and everything else when you have to apply this many coats and do it in a set time frame to guarantee proper adhesion.

One of those ‘different’ jobs. This customer had already had their walls painted then decided to paint the ceilings. Fun part of a ceiling only paint is getting anything on the walls or damaging the ceiling edge cut. We repainted the kitchen, living room, front foyer and hall in a fresh white.

This job entailed removing a wallpaper border wrapping the ceiling like, seal and sand of the walls and a full repaint including closet.

Quick kitchen repaint – Ceilings and walls

Repaint of trim and walls. Grey ceiling border, white coved ceiling portion, a second wider grey strip crown design, regular south city high baseboards and then topped it off with a nice grey on the walls.

Second trip to this property to get home prepped for sale. In this case the real estate agent wanted a few more rooms painted a neutral color so we returned and painted the front room and dining room walls, the family room walls below the chair rail and the upper stairwell and landing ceiling. The walls are textured with a faux plaster type design.
