Interior Residential Painting

Moving Furniture:
Earthly Matters will move all furniture to the center of the room and cover it with plastic for protection from sanding dust, paint, caulk, etc. If necessary for sufficient working space, we will move furniture out of the room being worked in. When we are finished working, we will move the furniture back to its original position.

Protecting Flooring:
Earthly Matters will take all necessary precautions to protect flooring (carpet, hardwoods, linoleum) from sanding dust, paint, caulking, etc. The floors will be protected with rosin paper, plastic, or dropcloths.

Filling Nail Holes and Minor Sheetrock Imperfections:
It is Earthly Matters' standard procedure to fill nail holes from pictures, artwork, etc. If you would not like these holes to be filled, please instruct us not to do so. Also, minor sheetrock imperfections (dents and dings) will be filled and sanded. These items will be repaired as standard procedure. Major sheetrock work (large holes, buckling sheetrock due to settling, textured ceilings or walls, etc.) can be performed by Earthly Matters but will be considered additional work and will incur additional costs.

Paint Sheen/Color:
If, at the time the estimate is given the homeowner has not picked colors, then the estimate given will be based on the use of white-based flat colors for walls and ceilings and white-based semi-gloss colors for trim. If a mid-tone or deep-based color is chosen and/or a higher sheen finish than semi-gloss is requested for trim work, there could be additional costs as darker colors and higher sheens usually require more material and more time to apply. Also, keep in mind that imperfections in ceilings, walls, and trim become more visible as the color gets deeper and the sheen gets higher.

Materials:
We use only the highest quality paint and materials from Duron, Porter or Sherwin Williams. Our estimates are based on using these materials. If you prefer to use a different manufacturer's paint or materials, we are happy to do so; however, there may be additional costs.
