What we paint

Whole-home repaints are the work we are built for.

Every room, every ceiling, one crew, one schedule. Single floors and multi-room projects too.

A dining room with deep sage walls and a white coffered ceiling

Walls and ceilings

About a week

The base of almost every interior we do, and the part every quote you get will cover.

White wainscot panelling and a painted door against a warm clay wall

Trim, millwork and doors

Three to four weeks

Baseboards, casings, crown, built-ins, interior doors. The finish work that takes the longest and shows the most.

Kitchen cabinets refinished in deep forest green with brass hardware

Kitchen cabinets

Staged over the job

A real process, not a spray and go. Everything comes off, gets cleaned, sealed and finished in stages.

The estimate

Hector gives you the number while he is standing there.

Not a salesperson, not a subcontractor. The owner walks your house, asks what you are trying to get to, and prices it on the spot. The written proposal breaks out every step, so you can see what you are paying for before you decide anything.

And you can reach him after that. Text Hector on a Saturday evening and you will hear back. It is the number one reason people give for choosing us.

Color, included

You see the color on your wall before you commit to it.

Real samples go on your walls, so you see them in morning light and evening light. The same wall, the same five samples, eight in the morning and eight at night.

How a job runs

Seven steps, and the owner is on four of them.

Every step is scheduled in advance, so you know which days are disruptive and which are not before we start.

Color, if you want the help

Included. Real samples go on your walls so you see them in morning and evening light.

We protect the house

Plastic up. Furniture, floors, fixtures and mirrors covered. Spray areas sealed off completely.

Prep

Caulking, filling, sanding, priming. Where our crew spends the time.

Paint

Benjamin Moore, room by room, on a schedule you know in advance.

Cleanup, every evening

Trash out, area swept, vacuums off the vans. You get your house back each night.

The final walkthrough

Hector walks it with you. If there is one thing you are not happy with, we are not done.

Prep

The part you never see is what makes it last.

Caulking, filling, sanding, priming. Prep is most of what separates a paint job that lasts from one that looks fine for a year. It is also the difference between a one week quote and a four week quote on the same house. A quote that skips it is not a cheaper version of this job, it is a different job.

Since Hector has been in the painting business for quite a long time, it was no surprise to me that he was not the lowest bidder, but the value, craftsmanship, and peace of mind he delivered made the investment absolutely worthwhile.Gordon Tibbits · Interior painting
Living in the house

Can you stay while we paint? Usually yes.

Here is the honest version, so you can plan around the week that matters.

While we are in the house

Most families stay put

Walls and ceilings

Routine. We work room by room, isolate the area we are in, and keep the rest of your house usable.

Plan to be out that week

Millwork, trim and anything sprayed

The overspray and the smell are strong enough that if you have kids in the house, Hector will tell you straight that it is a good week to be somewhere else.

Why it takes as long as it does.

Walls only, even a large home
About a week
Walls and ceilings
About two weeks
Add trim, millwork and doors
Three to four weeks

The difference between the one week bar and the four week bar is millwork and prep. A house with a lot of millwork is a month, and we would rather tell you that up front than discover it in week three. Either way you find out at the estimate, not halfway through.

What homeowners say

4.9 stars across 34 Google reviews.

“They just finished painting our entire two-story house and were meticulous with every detail. What stood out most was the great communication; we always knew the schedule and what to expect. On top of the high-quality work, the price was very reasonable.”

Amy HsuInterior painting

“From start to finish Hector was responsive and thorough. The team went above and beyond painting the interior of our home and all the millwork. There were even areas beyond the original scope that they picked up simply because it would improve the end result.”

Brian WojcikInterior painting

“Hector’s attention to detail really stood out. Nothing escaped his notice, he thoroughly inspected his team’s work, caught imperfections I missed, and never rushed.”

Questions people actually ask
What does an interior repaint cost?

It depends on square footage, ceiling height, how much millwork there is, and whether the walls need real prep. There is no useful number to put on a website. Hector measures it, talks through the scope with you, and gives you a written proposal that breaks out every step, usually on the spot.

Do I need to be home while you work?

No. Plenty of our clients hand over a key and go to work. What matters is that you are reachable for the color and finish calls that come up mid-job.

What if I have a lower quote from someone else?

Bring it to the walkthrough. If it is from a licensed, insured company covering the same scope with the same grade of materials, Hector will look at it with you and work with you on the number.

Do you paint kitchen cabinets?

Yes. Everything gets removed, cleaned, sealed and finished in stages. Hector explains the whole sequence at the estimate so there are no surprises about timeline or price.

What paint do you use?

Benjamin Moore for interior paint. If you have a brand or a line you want, tell Hector at the estimate.

Are you licensed and insured?

Licensed, bonded and insured. Lurssen Professional Painting LLC has operated since 2019 and Hector has painted for more than twenty years.
