Our Trim & Molding Painting Process

We begin every trim and molding project with a commitment to excellence. Our detailed process is meticulously designed to ensure every inch of your trim is flawless, from preparation to the final touch. We start by safeguarding all non-painted surfaces to maintain the cleanliness and integrity of your space. Our team then addresses every imperfection, from filling nail holes to sanding and caulking, guaranteeing a perfectly smooth and well-protected finish. This preparation sets the stage for a superior painting application, delivering stunning results that enhance the elegance of your home.

Surface Protection

To ensure a pristine work environment and protect your home's interiors, our first step is to meticulously cover all non-painting areas. We use durable drop cloths and plastic sheeting to shield your floors, carpets, and furniture from paint splatters and debris, ensuring every surface remains clean and undamaged throughout the painting process.

Surface Preparation

Preparation is key to a flawless finish. Our team carefully fills any nail holes and corrects imperfections on your trim, creating a smooth, even surface. Following this, we sand down the trim, removing any rough spots and ensuring a perfect base for painting. Each area is then thoroughly wiped down with a tack cloth to remove all dust and particles, setting the stage for excellent paint adhesion and a clean application.

Application

With the surface fully prepared, we move on to the painting phase. For raw wood or previously unpainted moldings, we apply a high-quality oil-based primer to ensure even coverage and enhance paint adhesion. This is followed by the application of two coats of an alkyd water-based enamel, which provides a durable and aesthetically pleasing finish. Depending on the specifics of the project, we use an ultra-smooth airless sprayer for a seamless finish or a mini roller and brush method for precise application, tailored to the requirements of your space.

Clean Up & Review

Our commitment to quality extends to our cleanup process. Once painting is complete, our team meticulously removes all coverings, cleans the work area, and ensures that everything is returned to its proper place. We then conduct a thorough review of our work, with a final walkthrough to identify and promptly address any touch-ups. This review process guarantees that our work meets your satisfaction and our high standards, leaving your trim and moldings looking impeccable.
