Project Description

Project Description

This interior painting project took place in a spacious 2,500 square-foot home located in a quiet, well-kept neighborhood of Longmont, Colorado. The house featured three bedrooms, a laundry room, kitchen, living room, family room, stairwell, entry hall, and a full bathroom. Every wall and ceiling in the home received a fresh, professionally applied coat of paint. Because the house was empty, we had the opportunity to spray and back-roll every surface for a smooth, consistent finish that’s difficult to achieve otherwise.

We completed the entire project in just four days, keeping a tight schedule without cutting corners. This job fell within the $6,000–$8,000 range, a fair price for the level of precision, scope, and customization the homeowners requested—including 14 different interior paint colors carefully selected and applied across the space. The job required strategic masking and sequencing, particularly because the walls and ceilings were painted in different sheens. Ceilings were painted first, then masked off so the walls could be completed cleanly and crisply.

Background Story

The clients—a husband and wife—had just relocated from the East Coast and were settling into their first home together. With a purchase price in the $850,000–$950,000 range, this was a major milestone for them. They wanted the interior to feel completely theirs before moving in, so painting the entire home was at the top of their list.

They reached out to Elements Painting Inc. after reading through our strong local reviews and connecting with our sales team. During the estimate walkthrough, we took the time to understand their design vision, offered advice on color selections, and walked them through our process. That level of professionalism and transparency gave them confidence.

They were looking for more than just a quick paint job. They wanted detailed work, clean edges, reliable scheduling, and a trustworthy crew they’d feel comfortable giving full access to their new home. We delivered on all fronts—and then some.

Scope of Services

  • Project Consultation & Color Planning: Guided clients through selecting a full palette of complementary Sherwin-Williams colors for every room.

  • Detailed Surface Preparation: Patched minor imperfections, sanded walls and ceilings as needed, and spot-primed where appropriate for smooth coverage.

  • Complete Masking & Protection: Carefully masked off windows, floors, trim, and fixtures. Ceilings were painted first and masked before wall painting to accommodate the sheen difference.

  • Ceiling Painting: Applied Sherwin-Williams Flat Ceiling Paint throughout all ceilings using a spray-and-back-roll method for a flawless matte finish.

  • Wall Painting: Sprayed and back-rolled all walls with Sherwin-Williams Duration Eggshell in 14 different colors across individual rooms.

  • Clean Workspace Maintenance: Maintained a tidy and safe work zone throughout, even while covering large surface areas.

Results

The transformation was immediate. The moment you step into the entry hall, the effect of the new palette is clear—fresh, modern, and full of personality. The subtle sheen differences between the walls and ceilings bring added dimension to each room, while the sprayed application delivers a smooth, elegant finish that the clients absolutely loved.

Their reaction? Pure joy. They praised the clean lines, the quick turnaround, and the respectful, detail-focused attitude of our crew. The husband commented that the home “finally felt like ours,” while his wife mentioned she was surprised how quickly we achieved exactly what they envisioned.
