New construction painting.
Seymour, Columbus & the rest of Southern Indiana
Priming and painting for new homes and remodels. We work with builders and homeowners and keep to the schedule, so you can move in on time.
How we do it
New drywall drinks paint, so it gets a coat of primer before anything else. In an open, empty house we spray and back-roll: one of us sprays while the other rolls right behind for an even finish, then the trim and doors get brushed.
We plan our days around the rest of the build, so the painting is done when it needs to be done.

Questions about new construction
Something we didn’t cover? Call (317) 220-5912 and ask.
Do you work with builders?
Yes. We work for builders and for homeowners running their own build, and we fit into the schedule.
Why does new drywall need primer?
Bare drywall and joint compound soak up paint differently. Without primer, the seams can show through the finish as dull stripes.
Can you paint the outside too?
Yes, including painted brick. See our exterior painting page.
