Trim Painting in Dedham, MA
Brushwork with clean cut lines where trim meets wall. Semi-gloss enamel so it wipes down and holds up.
On Dedham properties
Most of what we paint in Dedham is a mix of genuinely old and postwar housing. Colonial and Federal houses near the historic centre, Victorians through Oakdale, and 1940s–1960s capes and ranches across the rest of the town. Dedham maintains a local historic district covering part of the town centre, with a commission that reviews exterior changes. Worth checking before choosing colours.
How we do it
Brushwork with clean cut lines where trim meets wall. Semi-gloss enamel so it wipes down and holds up.
Trim gets filled, caulked at the wall line, sanded, then brushed with an enamel that levels out rather than holding brush marks. Waterborne alkyds flow better than straight latex on casing and give you a harder surface on a windowsill that actually gets used.
What usually fails
Caulk applied after paint rather than before is the tell of a rushed job. It yellows, it cracks along the top edge, and it can't be fixed without redoing the line.
