Interior Painting Services

Step 1 - Expert Color Consultation

Achieving the perfect look for your home starts with expert advice from a CertaPro Painters® Color Consultant. They guide you through the process to ensure an ideal aesthetic outcome for your interior space. We also encourage you to explore different options using our convenient Color Visualizer Tool, which can help you determine what color best fits your vision.

Digital Visualization & Confirmation: To ensure complete confidence in your choices, we employ advanced digital visualizer tools. These allow us to accurately render your selected color palette onto high-resolution photos of your interior, providing a final check of color suitability prior to the start of the painting project.

Step 2 - Detailed Protection and Containment

Prior to any paint application, CertaPro Painters® takes careful measures to secure your property. We begin by protecting your possessions, utilizing clean, protective plastic sheeting for furniture and ensuring comprehensive floor coverage with carefully positioned drop cloths throughout the room.

Comprehensive Floor Defense: For the most robust floor protection, we apply canvas drop cloths over either rosin paper or specialized builder’s plastic, creating a durable barrier against paint splatter and debris.
Detailed Component Masking: To guarantee crisp and accurate paint lines, every non-painted element—such as architectural trim and fixed light fixtures—is accurately masked using professional, low-tack painter’s tape.
Creating a Sealed Environment: All furnishings are carefully moved away from the walls and draped with new, 1-mil plastic sheeting, which is then taped at the seams to form a fully sealed, protective enclosure.

Step 3 - Advanced Surface Preparation

Our dedicated painting team meticulously prepares your interior walls before applying any paint. This preparation involves repairing all imperfections, such as addressing holes or cracks in the ceilings and walls, effectively sealing any stains, and lightly sanding uneven surfaces, including any loose or aging paint. This careful approach ensures a pristine and smooth canvas, which is vital for achieving a stunning final finish.

Wall Defect Correction: All drywall and plaster defects (cracks, holes) are filled using Spackle or setting compounds that cure properly before sanding.
Stain Neutralization: Stains (water, smoke) are neutralized and sealed with stain-blocking, bonding primers (e.g., shellac or oil-based) to prevent bleed-through.
Adhesion Enhancement: Loose, aging, or glossy paint is delicately scuff-sanded to ensure proper adhesion of the new topcoat.

Step 4 - Expert Application & Finishes

Following the priming of all repaired areas, we proceed to apply top quality paints across your walls to achieve a visually consistent finish. We provide a comprehensive range of available finish options, which include flat, matte, eggshell, satin, semi-gloss, and high-gloss. Before this stage, we review the performance and aesthetic benefits of each type with you, enabling you to make an informed choice. Although the total project duration may vary depending on the specific scope and size, our team always ensures the completion is marked by swift and efficient workmanship.

Step 5 - Clean Up

The paint will dry within just a few hours, and there's no need for you to leave your home during this process. Our team takes care of the removal of all painting materials and coverings. We diligently sweep your floors and carpets, ensuring a meticulous cleanup of the work area. Everything is returned to its original placement with careful attention to detail.

Work Area Cleanup: We perform a complete cleaning using commercial-grade vacuums to remove paint dust and debris from floors and carpets.
Furniture Repositioning: All furniture and decorative items are returned to their exact original placement.
Site Readiness: Your space is left immediately usable, with touch-up paint clearly labeled and provided for your future use.

Step 6 - Final Inspection and Certainty Guarantee

The project is not complete until it meets our Certainty Guarantee. This step ensures your complete satisfaction and provides documented accountability.

Supervisor Quality Check: The Job Site Supervisor performs a detailed, multi-point inspection against the approved Scope of Work before client review.
Client Walk-Through: The Supervisor then facilitates a comprehensive Final Walk-Through with you to identify any final adjustments.
Guaranteed Rectification: Any warranted items identified are immediately rectified and signed off on before the crew leaves the site.
