Interior Painting Makeovers in Chicago
The fastest way to make a home feel new. Walls, ceilings, trim and doors with the patching and prep that make the difference between a paint job and a makeover.
Prep is the job. Paint is the last step.
Most paint jobs fail at the prep: nail pops left unfilled, cracks painted over, trim not caulked. We patch and sand first, prime where it matters, then cut in by hand and roll even coats. The result is a room that looks like it was built yesterday.
We paint occupied homes every week, so furniture gets moved and covered, floors are protected and the room is back in use the same evening whenever possible. Need a color opinion? Ask. We see a lot of Chicago apartments and know what reads well in north light.
- Patching, sanding and caulking before the first coat

Painting FAQ
Do you patch and repair drywall before painting?
Always. Patching is part of every painting estimate, and larger drywall repairs are priced as their own line so you can see the difference.
How long does it take to paint a room or a whole apartment?
A single room is usually one day. A two-bedroom apartment, walls and ceilings, takes two to four days depending on prep and trim.
Do I need to move my furniture?
No. We move what we can, cover the rest and put everything back.
Which paint do you use?
Quality lines from Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore unless you ask for something specific. We will recommend the sheen for each surface.
Can you paint kitchen or bathroom cabinets?
Yes. Cabinet refinishing is cleaned, degreased, sanded, primed and sprayed or brushed in enamel for a durable finish.
