Interior Painting in Farragut, Knoxville & East Tennessee

What interior painting includes

Interior work is as much about protection and prep as it is about paint. A good interior job should leave you with nothing to clean up and nothing to touch up. Here is what we handle on a typical project:

• Moving and covering furniture, and masking floors, fixtures, outlets and switch plates
• Filling nail holes, dents and cracks, then sanding smooth
• Caulking gaps at trim, baseboard and crown
• Spot-priming patches, stains and bare drywall so the finish stays even
• Cutting clean lines at ceilings, corners and trim — no tape lines or bleed-through
• Two finish coats where the color change or surface calls for it
• Reinstalling plates and hardware, then a full clean-up and walkthrough

Rooms and surfaces we paint

Living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, stairwells, ceilings, baseboard and crown moulding, interior doors, door casings, window trim, closets, laundry rooms, basements and garages. We also repaint kitchen and bathroom cabinets, which is one of the biggest visual changes you can make to a house without remodeling it.

Choosing colors and sheens

If you already know what you want, great. If you do not, we will talk through it. As a general rule: flat or matte hides imperfections on ceilings and low-traffic walls, eggshell and satin are the workhorses for most living spaces, and semi-gloss belongs on trim, doors, and anywhere that gets scrubbed. Kitchens, bathrooms and mudrooms benefit from a harder, more washable finish.

How long it takes

A single room is often a one-day job. A few connected rooms usually run two to four days. A whole-house interior repaint depends on square footage, ceiling height, how much trim there is, and whether cabinets are included. You will get a realistic schedule with your written estimate, not a vague promise.

Interior painting year round

Unlike exterior work, interior painting is not weather dependent, which makes late fall and winter a good time to book. If you are planning to sell in spring, getting the inside repainted over the winter is the least disruptive way to do it.
