How we work
Prep is 80% of a great paint job.
The finish you see is only as good as the work underneath it. Here is what happens from first call to final walkthrough.
Step 1
Estimate with a real scope
We walk the rooms, look at existing finishes, and talk through how you use the space. You get a written scope covering surfaces, prep, products, timing, and price — not a vague number on a napkin.
What a Premier quote includes
Scope of work · prep details · paint products and sheen · timeline · payment schedule · cleanup · warranty language
Step 2
Protect the house first
Drop cloths, plastic, painter’s tape, and shoe covers. Furniture is moved or covered properly — never dragged. If something is damaged, we report it immediately. Honesty keeps trust.
Step 3
Surface preparation
Inspect. Sand or degloss for adhesion. Patch holes and cracks. Caulk gaps at trim. Remove dust. Prime when the surface needs it. Skipping this is how paint fails a year later.
Step 4
Prime, cut in, roll
Manufacturer coverage rates. A maintained wet edge. Back-rolling when it helps. Clean lines at ceilings, corners, trim, and outlets. Doors and cabinets get a smooth finish without visible sags.
Step 5
Daily cleanup and a final walkthrough
Trash, empty cans, tape, and debris leave with us. Floors are swept or vacuumed. A lead walks the job before we leave each day and again at completion. Touch-ups happen before we call it done.
What “done” means here
Even coverage. Clean lines. Protected belongings. A house your family can use the same evening. Questions answered before we pack the van.
Safety
Non-negotiable on every job.
Ladders inspected before use. Proper PPE. Ventilation when products require it. Immediate reporting of injuries, near-misses, or property damage. We would rather delay a job than have an incident.
