FAQs

We take care of most of the prep for you. We’ll move lighter furniture as needed and carefully cover floors, furniture, and belongings with drop cloths and plastic. If possible, we recommend removing small or fragile items ahead of time, but you don’t need to empty the room completely. Our goal is to protect your home and make the process easy on you.

Most single rooms can be completed in one day, including prep, painting, and cleanup. Larger projects or full interior repaints typically take several days, depending on the number of rooms and any prep or repair work needed. We’ll give you a clear timeline during your free in-person estimate so you know exactly what to expect.

We use high-quality interior paints designed for durability, easy cleaning, and long-lasting color. Most modern interior paints are low-odor and low-VOC, making them safe for families and pets. The exact paint and finish (flat, eggshell, satin, semi-gloss) depends on the room, lighting, and how the space is used, and we’re happy to help guide those choices.
