Trim Painting in West Roxbury, Boston MA
Brushwork with clean cut lines where trim meets wall. Semi-gloss enamel so it wipes down and holds up.
What this looks like in West Roxbury
Most of what we paint in West Roxbury is detached capes and colonials. 1920s through 1950s capes, colonials and ranches, with some larger Victorians near Centre Street. Wood siding, aluminum and vinyl in roughly equal measure. Driveways and side yards mean a crew can stage properly on all four elevations. It's the single biggest reason West Roxbury exteriors move faster.
What actually happens on site
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.
