What we do

Interior painting & touch-ups, done right the first time

Small paint jobs make a home look cared for: scuffs in a hallway, a patched hole that still shows, chipped baseboards or a door that has seen better days. We prep, prime where needed and paint so the repair blends in.

Leftover paint from when the room was last painted gives the closest match. No leftover paint? Send a photo of the wall and any paint can labels, and we'll tell you what to buy.

Typical time: 30–90 min per area, plus drying time. We work on other jobs on your list while the paint dries. We tackle as many items as time allows, starting with your priorities, so add the rest of your list. See all services.

What's included

  • Touching up scuffs and marks on walls
  • Painting over drywall patches
  • Repainting baseboards, trim and door frames
  • Painting interior doors
  • Caulking gaps in trim before painting
  • Drop cloths down and full clean-up

Before your visit

How to get ready

Helpful to have ready

  • Send photos of each spot and a wider shot of the wall
  • Look for leftover paint (garage, closets, under sinks)
  • Buy the paint and supplies we recommend (or we'll send a list)
  • Move small items away from the walls

Customers buy parts upfront at store prices with no markup. After seeing your photos we send the exact list, and we can pick it up on the way.

Good to know

Painting a whole room, a ceiling or an accent wall is bigger than a single visit. Send photos and we'll give you a written estimate.

“Jaime was such a pleasure to work with! He's honest and hardworking. … He was very respectful to our home, laying down a drop cloth on our carpet where he was working. He was great at communicating with me.”

FAQ

Interior painting & touch-ups questions

Can you match my existing paint?

The best match is leftover paint from the last time the room was painted. If there is none, a paint store can color-match a small sample, and we'll tell you exactly what to bring them.

Do you paint whole rooms?

A visit covers touch-ups, patches, trim, doors and small areas. Whole rooms, ceilings and accent walls get a written estimate first.

How many coats does it take?

Most touch-ups need two coats. We plan the drying time into your visit and work on other jobs on your list in between.

Who buys the paint?

You do, at store prices with no markup. After seeing your photos we send the exact list, and we can pick it up on the way.
