Year-Round Painting in Central Maine

Maine’s climate presents challenges, but our team knows how to work around them. We time exterior jobs to avoid extreme temperatures and humidity, and we ensure interior projects stay on track regardless of season.

Winter Interior Projects

Winter is an ideal time to freshen up interiors. With windows closed and HVAC systems controlling air quality, we use low-odor paints to create cozy, updated indoor spaces.

Spring & Fall Exterior Painting

These seasons offer optimal temperatures and humidity levels for exterior paint to cure properly and last longer.

Maintenance Tips to Extend the Life of Your Paint Job

Protect your investment with regular upkeep:

  • Inspect Annually: Look for cracks, chips, or mildew.
  • Wash Surfaces: Dirt and grime reduce paint lifespan.
  • Touch Up Promptly: Address small issues before they become large problems.
  • Control Humidity: Prevent bubbling and peeling indoors.
  • Reapply Caulking: Keep moisture out by maintaining seals around windows and doors.
  • Trim Landscaping: Prevent foliage from damaging painted surfaces.

Case Study: Transforming a Historic Home in Augusta

A recent project involved a charming 1920s home with faded exterior paint and dark, outdated interiors. Our team worked closely with the homeowners to preserve architectural integrity while modernizing the look.

  • Exterior: We scraped peeling paint, restored trim details, and applied a new palette of cream with forest green accents.
  • Interior: We lightened living areas with soft grays and repainted all ceilings, trim, and baseboards.

The result? A refreshed home that retains its historic charm while feeling bright and current.

Bonus Case Study: Vibrant New Build in Waterville

A family relocating from out of state wanted their new construction home to feel warmer and more personalized. We worked with them virtually and in-person to develop a cohesive color plan.

  • Living Areas: Neutral ivory with navy blue accent walls.
  • Bedrooms: Customized palettes for each family member, from lavender to storm gray.
  • Exterior Trim: Crisp white to contrast deep blue siding.

The outcome was a vibrant, welcoming space that felt like home from day one.
