Full size brush outs and on-site mock-ups of your project specific colors.
Our in-house artist works to develop colors created for you.
Wood finishes and custom plaster samples are also part of our color and sample process.
Wood Finishing – Exterior
We offer a wide array of finishes for exterior woods such as redwood, western red cedar, hemlock, ipe and mahogany.
Our exterior wood finishing processes range from full restoration to creating a prematurely grayed out patina. This may involve a more natural look or a gloss marine varnish for a front door.
We include pressure washing and cleaning of natural wood surfaces.
Wood Finishing – Interior
This category provides for a vastly variable list of finishes and options from high build catalyzed lacquer to a more minimalistic grayed out natural appearance.
Samples and development of project specific finishes are very important in this category.
This sector can include bleached finishes, European reactive dye stains or a simple hand rubbed tinted wax.
Exterior Painting
While this may appear simple, our process includes the use of the very best materials properly applied to obtain a long-lasting finish.
We often use a two-component penetrating epoxy to fully seal new wood doors and windows prior to priming and painting.
Dry rot repairs are made with penetrating epoxy sealer and catalyzed urethane fillers.
We feel that in this category proper surface preparation is the key element with premium grade topcoats.
We have over 40 years of experience ranging from full historical restoration to new construction.
Interior Painting
This category covers a wide range of products and application techniques.
Traditional hand brushed applications using conventional enamels for woodwork.
High gloss lacquer in rich colors for selected rooms such as Libraries.
Whatever the top-coat system, proper sanding, caulking and surface preparation are of the utmost importance as this is the foundation for all subsequent applications.
Faux Finishes
This encompasses the widest array of colors and textures.
This can include; Italian Plaster, Roman Clay, painted finishes, metal patinas, lime wash, wall glazes, cabinet glazing, and repair of existing finishes.
The techniques can range from ultra-modern high gloss to old world patina.
Drywall Repair & Wallpaper Removal
Drywall repairs often include matching existing textures and colors so that the entire space does not have to be repainted because of some minor damage.
Paper removal is often part of giving an area new life. We provide one stop shopping which includes site protection, paper removal, wall repairs, priming and painting.
