Interior Process

Where it Starts

All of our interior projects require extensive surface preparation prior to applying a single drop of paint.

Step one of our process is to move all of the furniture/large items to the center of the room. A tidy environment free of obstacles is vital to your project’s success.

Preparation

Step two is covering of all unpainted surfaces with plastic, flooring paper or tarps

Step three is to move any pictures/decorations on your walls. We take pictures prior to starting so that we are able to return wall decor to their correct positioning. after your room has been painted.

Step four, we will remove all outlet covers (phone, electrical, cable etc). How many times have you moved into a house where the existing paint has been hastily applied around (or just painted over ) outlet covers?

Repairs before painting

During step five our crew will repair and fix all of your wall or ceiling’s issues. We fill all nail head holes from pictures, retape all drywall tape on the ceiling

Step six is the crew will sand down your repairs, and spot prime over any repairs. This is a VITAL step that needs to be taken. If you don’t take this step, you WILL be able to see every area where the repairs took place. Primer serves two purposes, first Primer blocks out the repairs/discoloring from bleeding back through your paint job as well as serving as a bonding agent between your surfaces and the paint. Have you ever had an area of your home where paint chips off?

You, my friend, need a coat of primer.

We're Ready to Paint

Step seven is finally time to get some paint on that ceiling/wall/trim.

Ceilings always come first, then walls and finally trim.

Step eight is time for us to return that wall decor and furniture to their rightful positions.

Another beautifully completed project

Now that we have finished your project it is time to walk your property and make sure that everything that we have done has lived up to your standards. We are of the belief that your project should turn out just as beautiful as it was in your mind when you decided to hire us for the project. Take your time, make sure that all of our lines are straight and that the paint covers as you had hoped it would.

Final step is jobsite cleanup. We will be sure to collect, bag and remove all jobsite debris.

What Our Customers Say

"Your Local House Painters did an excellent job painting the interior of our house, and we were so pleased with their work that we had them also paint the exterior. They were immediately responsive to all of our email exchanges, and Victor and Chris were diligent and hard working throughout both projects. They provided expert advice, were timely, and were fastidious in covering our floors and furniture. Their attention to detail and quality of workmanship showed throughout both projects. They did a thorough job of cleaning up afterwards and moving everything back in place. We can't recommend Your Local House Painters highly enough."

"I hired Your Local Hour to paint my investment property, a two-story house with a first and second floor porch. Your Local House Painters responded promptly to my request for an estimate. The company gave me a competitive bid that included materials and labor. I was pleased to note that Your Local House Painters used top-of-the-line paint for the entire job. My property was prepped, caulked and painted with a three-color palette in a timely fashion. The crew was knowledgeable, professional and thorough. I highly recommend Your Local House Painters ; the company takes pride in its work."

"My experience w/ the owner Joe, was nothing but top-notch. He was professional, responsive, & super knowledgeable. He even went above & beyond w helping me decide on the final interior colors. Every day I was impressed w the painters arriving on time. They were very respectful of my new hardwood floors strategically covering everything up & finished right on time! The care & attention to detail was everything. I will definitely be hiring Your Local Painters again to assist w finishing up my townhouse remodel & complete it w/ a fresh coat of paint."

"We used Your Local House Painters years ago to paint the exterior of our prior home and loved them then. Since we needed some work done on our present home, they were our first choice. We're renovating a bathroom, so we needed some wood cabinets, main interior walls and baseboard trim-work painted as well as having a wall-sized mirror removed. They answered the phone right away, were able to schedule the job a week out, and the job was completed three days after it started. In between, the workspace was left clean and tidy at the end of each day, so if it weren't for the fresh paint, we wouldn't know they'd been there. Oil-based paint was required for this space (which would have been a nightmare if we'd tried to do it ourselves) and not a single drop or spatter was left behind. The paint itself is deep and lustrous. In short, we couldn't be more pleased with the job this company did, and would recommend them to everyone!"

"Joe and Ali are top notch. I used Your Local House Painters to stain the exterior of my house. They also painted the trim and removed/replaced rotten fascia boards. Their attention to detail is second to none. The end result was stunning, even more than I could imagine. Victor and his crew were very meticulous and I couldn’t be happier. Their rates were very reasonable and they were always quick to respond to any questions we had. We will be using them for the interior very soon!"

"The Your Local House Painters team not only advised us on paint colors and deck stains, but prepped, caulked, and power-washed before delivering a paint job that gave our house the curb-appeal pop we wanted. Professional, efficient, and competitively priced, Your Local House Painters performed as promised."

"Joe, (and crew) the proprietor of Your Local House Painters replaced siding on both ends of our home, caulked all windows on the exterior, filled nail holes, replaced wood trim with PVC and painted the entire exterior of our home with two coats of paint......siding and all trim. They arrived as promised, completed all of this work in two days, cleaned up as if they had never been here and inspected their work, with us, before submitting an invoice for payment. We called several of their references before we agreed to having them perform the work and all of their references were excellent and they were in various towns in the Triangle. These guys are the best. I highly recommend them without question."
