Drywall Repair

The scope of the project always varies, but the prep work remains the same. I always start by assessing what has to be repaired (drywall repairs, nail holes in trim to be filled, trim to be caulked) and follow through sanding priming and then painting two coats of finish paint (ceilings, walls, then trim).

The scope of the project always varies, it could be a refresh (same colors) or a new look we are going for the prep work is most important for a lasting finish. I start by scraping any loose paint and wood filling any holes that need repairs followed by sanding, priming, caulking, and then finish painting (trim, then walls).

Repairing drywall is essential for achieving that smooth finish on walls. I achieve that by taping where necessary and mudding with two coats of joint compound mix followed by a topcoat of all purpose compound (also called green top). After that i finish with a detailed sanding to feather out the patches into the wall and prime all patches so they are ready for finish paint.

Popcorn Ceiling Removal

Door and Window Painting

Cabinet Painting

How I start this process is by clearing the area and using plastic and drop cloths to cover the room. I then use a pump sprayer filled with warm water, soak the ceiling and scrape it. After the popcorn and glue underneath are removed I follow through with multiple thin coats of mud (skim coating) sand the ceiling, prime it and finish paint it.

My process i follow is thoroughly reliant on prep work to achieve the most smooth lasting finish. I start by cleaning the doors with a degreaser if necessary, followed by filling any nail holes with putty or wood filler (glazing any windows as necessary) and lightly sanding until I achieve a smooth surface followed by priming, caulking, sanding and finish painting.

Refinishing cabinetry takes an eye for detail, thorough preparation, and care. To start i degrease any kitchen cabinets, followed by a light sanding, vaccuming and wiping with a tac cloth to collect any remaining dust accumulated. I prime any bare spots and follow through with another round of sanding vaccuming and wiping once more with a tac cloth. Then i can apply the finish paint one of two ways either a spray finish or a brush and roll.
