Painting Services and Design Techniques

When you hire First Class Decorating, Inc. you'll be pleasantly surprised at the variety of different painting ideas and designs we create. Below is a brief list of what our painting services include.

Interior Painting

Once we inspect the interior of your home and speak to you about your vision on how you want the inside of your home to look, we provide you with a free estimate. We will take the time to point out any cracks in plaster and drywall, water damage or nail pops that would need to be repaired. First Class Decorating, Inc. takes the utmost care in shielding your home furnishings and floor with drop cloths and plastic.

All blemishes noted on the walls will be fixed, and then we will sand and prime those areas before painting. The one thing people often don't recognize are ceilings. First Class Decorating, Inc. will take a close look at the ceiling to see if any cracks or water damage is evident. This will be pointed out to our customers so they are aware that these items would need to be repaired.

Creative Painting Ideas

Painting the inside of the home doesn't have to be plain white. If you like plain white, that's fine by us, but we've seen an emergence of several unique painting techniques and ideas which we are first class in with our painting techniques and ideas! Being in this business for over thirty years, you learn a thing or two. Here are just a few unique and innovative ways to transform your living space:

• Staining
• Glazing
• Faux finishing
• Wallpapering (installation and removal)
• Venetian plaster. This is plaster mixed with marble dust and applied with a spatula or trowel in thin, multiple layers, which are then burnished to create a smooth surface with the illusion of depth and texture. This creative painting technique provides a polished, marble-like finish. It's very useful on surfaces where marble panels could not be installed easily, such as on curved walls. You can tint Venetian plaster to any color.
• Photo mural installation
• Varnishing
• Wood trim

Please take a moment to view some of our interior painting techniques and ideas. If you're stuck on what color to choose, we can certainly help in that area, but take a look at Benjamin Moore's color page. There are several links that you can choose from to help determine what's best for your tasteful style.

Exterior Painting

All of our exterior jobs start with a free estimate. Whether if it is for your home or business, First Class Decorating, Inc. will not only paint the exterior of your home, but we also provide carpentry repairs, if needed.

Pressure washing the house down is a must before we apply any type of paint application to the facade of your home. This removes mildew, dirt, and pollutants that hinder the bonding of a fresh coat of paint or stain. We are in constant contact with you, our valued customer, that if we discover something after pressure washing your home, we will immediately bring it to your attention. Some items may be rotted wood or areas of your home that need repair.

We are First Class when it comes to keeping the perimeter of your property free from paint or stain damage. Rest assured, we cover all ground areas within the working location with drop cloths and plastic.

Priming and painting accordingly are next and we will always have a walk through with you once the job is completed to make certain that you are satisfied with our work.
