Fine-Finish Millwork Painting
Our millwork painting process follows the paint manufacturer's application instructions and produces a “factory finished” look and feel.
What is Millwork?
Millwork = interior trim. The term refers to anything that was once created in a mill: doors, baseboards, window trim, crown molding, door casings, wainscoting, and wood windows.

Our Precision Process
Step 1. Masking & Coverup
We protect any areas that are not being painted. We offer you a written guarantee that our team will not slop paint on any surfaces not being painted.
- Furniture: Moved and covered with painter's plastic.
- Baseboards: Masked with blue tape and paper.
- Flooring: Protected with drop cloths or paper.
- Kitchen cabinets: Covered entirely to prevent overspray.
Step 2 & 3. Preparation & Sanding
Step 2: Filling holes, cracks, and other imperfections.
Step 3: We sand all surfaces with fine sandpaper to de-gloss. This process considerably increases adhesion, ensuring your finish never peels.
Step 4 & 5. Dust Removal & Priming
Step 4: Shop vac with brush attachments remove all dust, followed by a lint-free cloth wipe-down.
Step 5: Application of fast-drying oil primer to any varnished or never-before-painted surfaces. We sand one more time after primer is dry.
Step 6 & 7. Fine Finish Application
Step 6: Caulk, spackle, and final inspection.
Step 7: Two coats of Sherwin Williams ProClassic Hybrid Satin. We use Airless and HVLP sprayers to achieve the smoothest, most durable finish available.
