Interior painting in Downtown from a crew that drywalls too

Most painters do not drywall and most drywallers do not paint — so an Downtown repaint needing patches usually means two contractors, two quotes, two visits. In Downtown we are both: the same trusted team that repairs and finishes your drywall also primes and paints it. Downtown is this established Central community where reno, repair and ceiling drywall are common, so the prep here is a full prep pass -- patching nail holes, sanding rough spots and priming years of touch-ups before the new colour goes on, with two to three coats depending on the colour change and wall condition. We cover Downtown, Boyle Street, Central McDougall, Dovercourt and Central, 7 days a week.

Our Downtown interior painting process, step by step

Assess, patch, prime

Every Downtown wall gets checked for nail holes, scuffs and drywall damage before a can of paint is opened. Anything that needs patching gets patched and primed first — in Downtown that is usually prep that ranges from light touch-ups on newer builds to a full patch-and-skim pass on the older homes nearby.

Cut in, roll, finish

We cut in the edges cleanly, roll the field in two to three coats depending on the age and condition of the specific home, and check the finish under the room's actual light before we call it done.

Walls first, paint second

Before painting anything in Boyle Street, Central McDougall, Dovercourt we inspect for nail holes, scuffs and board damage.

Cut in, roll, finish

We cut in the edges cleanly, roll the field in often three coats to fully cover aged paint, patched plaster and stained sections, and check the finish under the room's actual light before we call it done.
