Interior Painting in Lexington, MA

Lexington specifics

Most of what we paint in Lexington is colonials of every era plus mid-century modern. Antique colonials near the Green, 1950s–1970s colonials and splits across most of the town, and architect-designed mid-century modern at Peacock Farm and Six Moon Hill. Lexington maintains historic districts around the Battle Green and Munroe. Exterior changes visible from the street require approval before work begins.

Our process

Prep is most of it — wash, patch, sand, prime, then two finish coats. We move and cover furniture and clean up at the end of every day.

Ceilings first, then walls, then trim — working top down so drips land on unfinished surfaces. Cut lines get brushed before the roller comes anywhere near the wall, and we pull tape while the last coat is still slightly open so the film breaks clean instead of tearing.

The mistake we get called to fix

The usual failure is rolling a second coat too soon. The surface skins over while the underside is still wet, and a month later you get burnish marks wherever someone wipes the wall.
