Home repairs first, then paint
Paint can't hide cracked drywall, gaps around trim or rotted wood for long. Small problems show through the finish and often get worse. That's why repairs are part of how we prepare a surface, not an afterthought.
We handle the small improvements that make a finish smooth and long-lasting, from patching and texture matching to replacing damaged trim and siding. It's a service homeowners across the North Bay rely on before painting.

How home repairs fit into your project
Every project starts with a free, no-obligation estimate and ends with a clean site and a final walk through.
Find the problems
During the estimate we point out cracks, gaps, damage and rot that will affect the finish.
Repair
We patch, fill, caulk and replace damaged trim or siding as needed.
Prime the repairs
Repaired areas get primer so they blend in and hold paint like the rest of the surface.
Paint
We finish with paint or stain, so you can't tell where the repairs were.
Home repairs and prep work
Repairs and prep from our projects, before the paint goes on. Tap any photo to see it full size.

Common questions
Can you repair drywall and match the texture?
Yes. We patch drywall and match the surrounding texture so the repair disappears under the new paint.
Do you replace damaged trim and siding?
Yes. We replace damaged trim, molding and sections of siding as part of preparing for paint.
Can I hire you just for repairs?
Our repairs are designed to go with a painting project. Tell us what you need and we'll let you know how we can help.
Will you tell me about problems you find?
Yes. We point out damage during the estimate and while we work, so there are no surprises.
What home repairs do you handle before painting?
We handle the small home repairs that affect a paint job: drywall patching, texture matching, caulking, and replacing damaged trim, molding and siding.
