Lakewood, CO · Interior Painting
A fresh coat is the fastest way to change a room. We prep it right, fix the cracks in old plaster and drywall, and use paints that hold up to Lakewood's dry air and hard high-altitude sun.

Lakewood was incorporated in 1969, and much of it is 1950s and 1960s ranches with plaster and early drywall. At about 5,520 feet elevation the dry air and strong sun change how paint goes on and how long it lasts. Here is what usually turns up, and how we handle it.
Ranches in Applewood, Eiber, and Glennon Heights crack along seams as the house moves on expansive soil. Paint over an unprepped crack and it returns fast. We fix the cracks, tape and skim where needed, and prime before a drop of color goes up.
Rooms facing south and west, especially toward Green Mountain and out near Kendrick Lake, fade quickly under the strong sun. We use quality paints that hold their color and can point you to finishes and colors that last in a bright room.
A lot of Lakewood's ranch stock predates 1978, so older layers can contain lead. When we disturb old paint we follow lead-safe RRP practices: contained areas, careful cleanup, and the right prep so dust does not spread through the house.
Mid-century homes often have oil-based paint on the trim and doors. Fresh latex will peel off it without the right bonding prep. We scuff, clean, and prime so the new finish actually sticks and stays smooth.
Dry mile-high air makes paint set fast, which shows lap marks and flashing if the crew rushes the cut lines. We keep a wet edge, work the room in the right order, and light-check the walls before we call it done.
Belmar condos and townhomes are newer, so the walls are usually drywall in good shape. That job is about clean lines, the right color, and protecting floors and shared halls. We mask well, work tidy, and follow the building rules on hours and elevators.
