Painting Maplewood homes
Maplewood's older homes often need wallpaper stripping, plaster skimming and detailed trim work. We protect original woodwork, cut crisp lines and finish with durable interior coatings.
Local tips for Maplewood
- Older homes often hide several layers of wallpaper — strip, wash off the paste, then prime before painting.
- Original woodwork is worth protecting: mask carefully rather than spraying over stained trim.
- Low-sheen finishes flatter uneven plaster walls; high gloss shows every wave.
