Painting homes in Holladay
Holladay homes are often bigger than they look from the street, with additions, finished basements, long runs of trim and big kitchens. Exteriors are a mix of brick, stucco and wood, and a lot of them have deep eaves, exposed beams and heavy trim packages that take time to do right. Inside, remodels are constant, and painting is usually the last trade in: new drywall to prime and finish, new trim and doors to enamel, and old and new surfaces that need to match.
Exterior painting in Holladay
Mature trees are the Holladay signature, and they bring shade, which means mildew on north walls and under eaves. We wash and treat it before painting rather than paint over it. Older stucco here has hairline cracks and sprinkler staining at the base. We patch the cracks with a flexible product, prime chalky areas and put on two coats. On custom homes with a lot of wood, the prep is most of the job and we price it that way.
Interior painting in Holladay
Remodel painting is the core of our Holladay work. We coordinate with your contractor, come in after the trim is set, and prime and paint new drywall and woodwork so it matches the rest of the house. Cabinet refinishing in large kitchens, ceilings with beams, and whole-house repaints are the other common requests.

What we do in Holladay
Holladay painting questions
Do you take on large custom homes?
Yes. We scope them room by room and surface by surface so the estimate is clear, and we schedule them so the work moves in order instead of all at once.
My stucco has hairline cracks. Can you fix them before painting?
Yes. Hairline cracks get a flexible patch, larger cracks get cut out and filled. Then primer and two coats. Painting over unpatched cracks is how they show up again in a year.
We are remodeling. When should the painter come in?
After drywall is finished and the trim and doors are installed, and before flooring if you can manage it. Tell us the schedule and we will coordinate with your contractor.
Do you give free estimates?
Yes. Joe comes out, looks at the job, and gives you a written price. No charge and no obligation.
