Interior Exterior Painting Process
First, your dedicated project manager visits your property for a thorough assessment. We’ll identify any prep work needed, discuss your color preferences, and explain exactly what the project will involve—including timeline and environmental compliance requirements specific to California regulations.
Next comes the preparation phase, which is where quality painting really begins. Surface cleaning, repairs, proper priming, and protection of your belongings. For older homes, we handle lead-safe practices and proper disposal of materials according to state requirements.
The painting phase uses premium, low-VOC paints selected for Bay Area conditions. Your project manager provides weekly updates so you always know where things stand. Upon completion, we do a final walkthrough with you and offer optional cleaning services to leave your space move-in ready.

How much does professional painting cost in the Niles District area?
Painting costs in the Bay Area typically range from $3-6 per square foot for interior work and $2.50-5.50 per square foot for exterior projects, depending on surface conditions and prep requirements. The final price depends heavily on factors like your home’s architectural complexity, current paint condition, and whether lead-safe practices are required for older properties.
What drives costs higher in our area are California’s environmental compliance requirements and the specialized materials needed for our climate. However, investing in quality work upfront saves money long-term—cheap paint jobs often need redoing within 3-5 years, while professional work can last 10-15 years with proper materials and application.
Our “Never Get Burnt Guarantee” means you don’t pay anything upfront, and we offer flexible financing options to make quality painting accessible without breaking your budget.
What type of paint works best for Bay Area weather conditions?
Bay Area homes need paint that can handle temperature fluctuations, coastal moisture, and intense UV exposure. Low-VOC acrylic latex paints with high-quality binders perform best in our climate—they expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking and resist moisture penetration that can cause peeling.
For exterior surfaces, 100% acrylic paints offer superior adhesion and color retention. Many Bay Area counties now require low-VOC formulations, which we use exclusively to ensure compliance while delivering performance that actually lasts.
The key is proper surface preparation combined with premium materials. Cheap paint, even applied perfectly, will fail quickly in our climate. Quality paint applied over properly prepared surfaces can easily last 12-15 years on exteriors and even longer on interior surfaces.
Do you handle lead paint safely in older Niles District homes?
Yes, we are fully certified for lead-safe work practices required by California law. Homes built before 1978 likely contain lead paint, and disturbing these surfaces requires specific safety protocols, specialized equipment, and proper disposal methods.
Our team uses EPA-approved containment methods, HEPA filtration systems, and follows strict cleanup procedures to protect your family and the environment. All lead-contaminated materials are disposed of at approved facilities according to state regulations.
This isn’t an area to cut corners or trust to unlicensed contractors. Improper lead paint handling can create serious health hazards and legal liability. Our certification and insurance coverage give you peace of mind that the work is done safely and in full compliance with California environmental standards.
How long does a typical painting project take to complete?
Timeline depends on project scope and weather conditions, but most interior rooms take 2-3 days including prep and cleanup. Whole-house interiors typically require 1-2 weeks, while exterior projects range from 3-7 days depending on size and surface conditions.
Weather can extend exterior timelines—we won’t paint in rain, extreme heat, or high winds because conditions affect paint adhesion and curing. Your project manager provides realistic timelines upfront and keeps you updated on any weather-related adjustments.
The key is proper scheduling and preparation. Rushing painting work to meet unrealistic deadlines usually results in problems later. We focus on doing the work right rather than fast, which actually saves time by avoiding callbacks and touch-ups that poorly planned projects often require.
What's included in your preparation work before painting begins?
Preparation is where quality painting really begins, and it’s often where other contractors cut corners. Our prep work includes thorough cleaning, scraping loose paint, filling holes and cracks, caulking gaps, and sanding rough surfaces to create the smooth foundation that quality paint needs.
For exteriors, this might include pressure washing, replacing rotted wood, and addressing any moisture issues before painting. Interior prep includes protecting floors and furniture, removing outlet covers, and ensuring surfaces are properly primed—especially important when changing colors dramatically.
We also handle the details that matter: removing old caulk and applying fresh beads, ensuring trim joints are tight, and addressing any drywall imperfections. This preparation work takes time but makes the difference between a paint job that looks good for a few months versus one that looks great for years.
Do you offer color consultation services for paint selection?
Yes, we include color consultation as part of our comprehensive service. Bay Area lighting conditions—from bright coastal sun to frequent overcast skies—significantly affect how colors appear, and our color experts understand these local factors.
We help you navigate current trends like the warm neutrals and earthy tones popular in 2025, while ensuring your choices work with your home’s architectural style and neighborhood context. Whether you want to follow the latest design trends or create a timeless look, we provide guidance based on actual experience, not just paint manufacturer suggestions.
The consultation includes bringing actual paint samples to your home so you can see how colors look in your specific lighting conditions throughout the day. This prevents the common mistake of choosing colors based on tiny paint chips that look completely different once applied to large surfaces in your actual space.
