How to Prepare Your Home for Interior Painting

Getting your home ready before we arrive helps the project go smoothly and protects your belongings. Here's what we recommend:

One Week Before

Clear the Walls

Remove pictures, mirrors, wall hangings, and decorations. This prevents damage and speeds up our work.

Move Small Furniture

If possible, move smaller furniture, lamps, and décor out of the room entirely. For larger pieces, we can move them to the center of the room and cover them.

Remove Outlet Covers (Optional)

We'll handle this if you prefer, but if you want to help prep, removing outlet and switch plate covers saves time.

Communicate Special Concerns

Let us know about any areas that need special attention — stains, holes, texture issues, or color-matching concerns.

Day Before

Clear Floors

Remove rugs, small furniture, and floor items from the rooms being painted.

Protect Valuables

Move any valuable or fragile items to a safe location.

Plan for Pets

Decide where pets will stay during work hours. We're pet-friendly, but some animals get stressed with strangers in the home.

Arrange Access

Make sure we can access the work areas easily. Clear pathways and let us know about any locked doors.

Day Of

Provide Access

If you won't be home, make sure we can get in (lockbox, garage code, etc.).

Point Out Concerns

Do a quick walkthrough with us to point out any specific areas or concerns.

Relax

We'll handle the rest. We protect floors, move furniture as needed, and clean up daily.
