Why Preparation Matters

Skipping preparation often leads to uneven coverage, peeling paint, and shorter lifespans for your walls. That’s why our team takes time to:

Clean surfaces so paint properly adheres.

Repair imperfections like holes, cracks, or dents for a smooth look.

Protect furniture and floors to prevent splatter or damage.

Taking these steps saves you money and stress while ensuring professional results every time.

Before and After

How We Prepare Your Space

When you hire our interior painting services, we handle the details for you:

1. Clear the Room – We move or cover furniture and belongings.

2. Clean the Walls – Dirt, grease, and dust are removed.

3. Repair Damage – Holes, cracks, and drywall issues are fixed.

4. Remove or Tape Fixtures – Outlet covers, trim, and switches are protected.

5. Protect Floors & Furniture – Professional coverings keep everything safe.

6. Prime if Needed – Dark colors, stains, or new drywall get sealed before paint.

What Does It Cost?

While most painters in Maryland charge $2–$6 per square foot, Precision Paintworks averages $1.80 per square foot.

Example: A 1,500 sq. ft. home = about $2,700, including prep, materials, and labor.

Compare this to the local average of $4.75 per square foot, and you can see the value we bring.

Tips for a Smooth Experience

Pick the right finishes – Eggshell/satin for walls, semi-gloss for trim and cabinets.

Test colors first – See how they look in different lighting.

Ventilate properly – Open windows and run fans during and after painting.

Communicate clearly – We’ll walk through expectations with you before we begin.

Allow drying time – Don’t rush furniture back in place; let the paint cure.
