A room looks freshly painted when the edges are straight and the colour is even. That comes from the prep: furniture moved and covered, floors protected, holes and cracks filled, and the line where the wall meets the ceiling and trim cut in by hand.

Tell us which rooms and what colours you have in mind. If you haven't picked yet, that's fine.

Drawing of a room's upper corner: the cream wall colour stops in one straight line under the white crown moulding, with a brick-red stripe being cut in along it and an angled brush on a paint cup.
A straight cut-in lineWhere the wall meets the ceiling and trim, the edge is cut in by hand, so the colour stops in one clean line.

Nashville summers are hot and humid, and winters freeze and thaw. Paint that lasts outside is put on a clean, sound surface: dirt and mildew washed off, loose paint scraped, gaps sealed and bare wood primed.

Send a photo of each side of the house and we'll talk through what it needs.
