Old and new on the same street
Birmingham's neighborhoods near downtown and around Quarton Lake and Poppleton Park include many homes built before World War II, often with plaster walls, original wood trim and wood siding. Mixed in are newer homes built on the same lots. We regularly see both kinds of projects in the same week.
Painting older Birmingham homes
Older homes need more preparation. Plaster cracks are opened and repaired rather than just covered, old trim with many layers of paint is sanded smooth, and wood siding is scraped and primed where it has failed.
Homes built before 1978 may have lead-based paint in older layers. If your home is that age, mention it when you book your estimate so we can talk through how the work will be handled.
Newer homes and renovations
New construction and recent renovations usually need a color change, a more durable finish than the builder's flat paint, or cabinets refinished to match a new design. These go quickly when the walls are in good shape.
Exteriors near downtown
Tighter lots and close neighbors mean planning matters on exterior jobs: where ladders go, how overspray and debris are contained, and keeping driveways and walkways clear.

- Interior Painting: walls, ceilings, trim, doors and staircases, with the patching and priming done before any finish goes on.
- Drywall Repair: cracks, holes, nail pops and water-stained ceilings repaired and primed so the paint goes on smooth.
- Exterior Painting: washing, scraping, caulking and priming that let a new exterior hold up to Michigan winters.
