Color Changes
Changing colors isn't just about picking a new shade—it's about proper coverage and lasting results. Dark to light, light to dark, different sheens—each scenario requires a different approach. We figure out what's on your walls and build a plan that gets you true color without bleed-through or extra coats down the road.
Color Changes
Whether it’s a single room or a whole-house repaint, we handle color changes that actually last. No bleed-through, no uneven coverage, no callbacks. We prep the surface right, use the correct primers, and apply finish coats that look consistent in any light.
If you’re not sure what color to go with, we can help. We’ve done enough of these to know what works in different spaces and lighting conditions—and what looks great on a sample chip but doesn’t translate to a full wall.
Painting & Coating
We use premium paints from Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore—products that cover well, hold up to cleaning, and keep their color over time. Application matters just as much as product. We protect your floors and furniture, cut clean lines, and roll even coats so the finished walls look right from every angle.
Our Color Change Process
Every color change starts with understanding what’s already on your walls. Existing color, sheen, and wall condition all affect how we approach the job. Here’s how we make sure the new color looks right and lasts.

Assessment & Prep
We look at what you're starting with—current wall color, sheen, and condition. Going from dark to light? That takes more prep than light to light. We figure out the primer strategy and coat count upfront so there are no surprises. Then we protect floors, furniture, and fixtures, and address any nail holes, cracks, or damage before paint goes on.

Prime
Primer isn't optional on a color change—it's what makes the new color true and keeps the old color from bleeding through. We pick the right primer for the job: high-hide for dramatic changes, bonding primer for slick surfaces, stain-blocking for water marks or smoke damage. This step is what separates a color change that looks right from one that takes five coats and still shows shadows.

Paint & Finish
We cut in edges by hand and roll walls for even, consistent coverage. Most color changes need two finish coats to get full depth and uniformity. We check the work under different lighting—natural and artificial—because that's when problems show up. Final touch-ups happen before we pull tape, move furniture back, and clean up.
