A new color with no trace of the old one showing through. For big color changes in Glendale Heights, we spray a tinted primer, then the finish coats.
Going from a deep red to a pale gray, or from beige to a dark navy, is where coverage gets tested. A primer tinted toward the new color does most of the hiding, and spraying lays it down at an even thickness across the whole wall. Finish coats go on over that, sprayed and back-rolled, until the old color is gone. The estimate says how many coats we plan, so you know before the first day.
We cover Glendale Heights, coming in on North Avenue, Army Trail Road, Bloomingdale Road and Glen Ellyn Road. If you are changing colors through a whole main floor, hallways and open stairwells tie the rooms together, so we plan the order to keep a wet edge from meeting a dried section mid-wall. Where a dark color meets a light one at a corner, the line gets cut by hand after spraying. Sample patches go up on your walls first, because a color looks different in your light than it does on a card.

Patches of your top colors painted on the wall so you see them in your own light.

The number of finish coats written into the estimate, set by the old and new colors.
Floors, windows, trim, outlets and fixtures covered before the sprayer runs.
Each coat rolled while wet for full coverage and a uniform sheen.
Lines between two colors finished with a brush so the edge is straight.
We look at the rooms and the colors you are considering, then write up the primer, the coats, the surfaces and the days. Colors are confirmed from the samples on your walls before we order paint. If a wall needs repair or an extra coat beyond the estimate, you get the reason and a written price before we do it. When the last coat is dry, we walk each room with you in daylight and touch up any spot you find.
