Interior Painting in Palos Heights

Palos Heights interior painting that covers stains for good

Some marks come right back through new paint if you roll over them: old water stains, smoke film, crayon, marker and grease near the stove. We wash what can be washed, then seal the rest with a stain-blocking primer before any finish coat. The rest of the prep is the same on every wall: fill and sand holes, reset nail pops, caulk gaps along trim and mask the edges. Furniture is moved to the middle and covered, and the floors stay covered until we are done.

Palos Heights is on our regular route, reached on Route 83 and Harlem Avenue or along 127th Street and Ridgeland Avenue, with Lake Katherine on the way in. If a ceiling or wall in your house has a brown ring from an old roof or plumbing leak, we ask whether the leak has been fixed before we paint over it. A ring painted over an active leak comes back after the first heavy rain. Once the source is fixed and the drywall is dry and sound, we seal the stain and paint the area to match.

How we handle your Palos Heights job

The walkthrough is where we look closely at every stain and ask what caused it. Your written estimate then lists each room with its repairs, primers, paint, sheen and coats. If removing a stain shows soft drywall underneath, we stop and give you a written price for the repair, and nothing moves forward until you approve it. When the rooms are finished, we walk them with you and touch up anything you see.

• Stains sealed, not just painted over
• Leak source checked before we paint
• Nail pops reset with new screws
• Soft drywall priced before repair
• Floors and furniture covered
• Walkthrough with touch-ups
