Boulder, CO · Interior Painting
Walls, trim, and ceilings done clean. We repair old plaster before we paint, work lead-safe in older homes, and pick finishes that hold their color under Boulder's strong mountain sun.

Between the plaster in the older core, the texture on the ranches, and the strong sun at altitude, the paint that lasts here is the one that got the prep right. Here is what we plan for.
Older homes in Mapleton Hill, Newlands, and Whittier have plaster over wood lath, and after a century it cracks and gets soft spots. We patch and stabilize the plaster before we paint, so the wall looks smooth and the cracks do not come back next month.
Homes built before 1978 can have lead paint under newer coats, which matters the moment you sand or scrape. We use lead-safe work practices to contain the dust and protect your family. It is simply how you work responsibly in Boulder's older neighborhoods.
At an elevation of about 5,430 feet the sun is intense, and south and west facing rooms get a lot of it. We steer you toward quality, fade-resistant finishes on the walls that take the most light, so the color still looks right in a few years.
The 1950s and 1960s ranches in Table Mesa and Martin Acres often have orange-peel or knockdown texture. When we patch, we match the texture before we paint, so the repair blends into the wall instead of catching the light.
Boulder's energy code makes for tight, well-sealed homes that do not air out quickly. We use low-VOC paints so the house is comfortable to be in while we work and after, especially in newer and recently remodeled homes.
Exterior paint colors in a historic district like Mapleton Hill can need a Landmark Alteration Certificate, but interior colors do not. So the inside of an older Boulder home is where you get to be bold. We help you land on colors that suit the light and the age of the house.
