Our Process

A Luxury & Professional Project From Start To Finish

Phase 1 – Protecting The Area

  • Identify areas receiving the application.
  • Protect all areas not receiving the application.
    • Windows and trim are masked off with 1-inch painter’s tape and covered with plastic sheeting.
    • Cabinets are taped off and covered.
    • Flooring is covered with a plastic sheeting and taped as close to the wall as possible.

Phase 2 – Planning and Preparation

  • Removal of items.
    • Remove fixtures, switch covers, and outlet covers.
    • Any fixture covering a portion of a surface to receive application will be removed.
    • Removing these items prevents paint and other sealants from getting on them. It also allows you to paint behind the covers, leaving a clean look.
  • Surface preparation.
    • All surfaces receiving an application will be thoroughly cleaned, addressing any dirt, grime, mildew, or loose paint, and ensuring proper adhesion of the material.
  • Repair imperfections.
    • Patching
      • Filling nail holes and cracks with spackle or patching compound.
    • Sanding
      • Sanding ensures paint adheres properly and creates a smooth, attractive finish. Fine-grit sanding prevents cracking or flaking, followed by wiping, drying, and vacuuming to remove dust and debris.

Phase 3 – Prime the Surface

  • Walls & Ceilings.
    • Latex PVA (polyvinyl acetate) wall primer is applied with a spray and back-rolled application, beginning with a “cutting in” technique, creating an outline of the walls with primer.
    • Apply the primer, painting in vertical strips, going from top to bottom.
    • Finish off by lightly sanding with fine-grit sandpaper, leaving the surface smoother for painting.

Phase 4 – Paint Application

  • Walls
    • Paint finishes are sprayed and back rolled with a PROMAR 400 Interior Latex Low-Sheen Eg-Shell Enamel.

Phase 5 – Cleaning & Replacement

  • Cleaning
    • Clothes and soles of shoes are constantly checked for paint so as not to track anywhere in the home.
    • All work areas are cleaned of tape, sheeting, and drop clothes, wiped down, and vacuumed.
  • Replacement
    • All fixtures, switches, and light covers are returned to their original location.

Phase 6 – Final Inspection

  • Project manager inspects the finished work.
    • Inspections are not held to the end of a project, specifically. We are continuously inspecting throughout the project to ensure every step is completed perfectly. This makes for a seamless final inspection.
