Interior Painting for New Construction

Etobicoke

Project Overview

Helder, a general contractor in Etobicoke, needed a reliable painting company for a new construction project. With multiple trades involved, timing was critical to ensure there were no delays, and Helder required a team that could adapt to the ever-changing schedule and deliver high-quality work. He chose Home Painters Toronto for schedule flexibility, having a large skilled team, and ability to execute the job quickly.

After evaluating the space, we provided a streamlined approach to meet the task at hand and expectations of the new build. The project included interior painting of walls, trim, doors, and ceilings throughout the space.

Interior Painting

The Challenge

The biggest hurdle was coordinating the painting schedule with the other trades on the site. With drywall installers, carpenters, and other contractors working in and around the project, the Home Painters Toronto crew needed to remain flexible and coordinate the work so it didn’t hinder the progress of other jobs. This required meticulous planning, and constant communication with the other teams to ensure a smooth workflow.

The objective was to complete the paint job in less than one week.

The Result

Home Painters Toronto successfully delivered the project on schedule and on point. Despite the challenging timeline, the project was completed on time, allowing the owners to move in as planned. The final application showcased the impeccable attention to detail and the ability to work with the nuances and quirks of the construction site, inspiring confidence in Home Painter Toronto’s services.

Helder was extremely pleased with the results. He stated that the team integrated well with the other contractors and that he would use Home Painters Toronto for any future projects. His satisfaction is a testament to our commitment to delivering high-quality results.

Scope of Work

When working under a tight timeline, a step-by-step strategy was used to prepare and paint the new house’s interior to guarantee a perfect finish. This involved comprehensive surface preparation, meticulous wall painting, detailed trim, door and crown moulding, and careful ceiling painting.

Step 1: Surface Preparation

First, the surfaces were prepped for a professional, long-lasting finish.

  • Fill and Sand: Any imperfections on the walls were filled and sanded to create a smooth surface for painting.
  • Caulking and Priming: Gaps were caulked and surfaces primed as needed to prevent peeling and ensure proper paint adhesion.
  • Protecting the Home: All non-painted areas were masked and furniture and floors were protected with drop cloths to prevent paint splatters.

Step 2: Wall Painting

The main walls were painted with Sherwin Williams SW 6246. This gentle, airy blue with slate gray undertones creates a refined, serene atmosphere.

  • Paint Application: Two coats for smooth coverage and durability.
  • Areas Painted: The main living areas, including the halls, stairway, kitchen, living room, dining room, three bedrooms, office, and bathroom, have been painted.

Step 3: Trim, Door, and Crown Moulding Painting

In this newly built home, the crown moulding, doors, and trim were all integral parts of the project that helped bring out the home’s overall beauty. In the meantime, all of the trim, doors and crown moulding were painted for a crisp and fresh look.

  • Trim and Doors: Trim and doors were finished with a Sherwin-Williams Promar Classic Satin White coat. The satin sheen accentuated the clean lines and lent the residence a contemporary, elegant feel.
  • Crown Moulding: The crown moulding was painted with Promar 400 Flat White to preserve the detail work and give it an elegant, refined appearance. Painting the crown moulding helped define the light fixture height and elevate the grandeur of the rooms, and a fresh coat of paint made all the difference.

Step 4: Ceiling Painting

Ceilings were painted with Sherwin-Williams Promar 400 Flat White, which made the rooms brighter and gave them an airy, fresh quality.

  • Why Paint the Ceilings? Painted ceilings significantly improve the space — making it feel lighter and more open.
  • Paint Process: One coat was applied for a smooth and even coverage.
