Interior Painting in Santa Barbara, CA

Interior and Exterior Painting Services

Santa Barbara averages 72 degrees year-round so we do both interior and exterior painting during all months of the calendar year. On rainy weeks we will try to push back exterior painting projects as to not compromise any of the paint coatings.

Drywall Walls and Ceilings Painting

Finishing drywall is the most basic form of painting that many people think they can do themselves, and it's true, they can. However, if you want to achieve sharp cut-in lines, ample paint coverage, and use multiple colors and sheens, it's highly recommended to hire a professional painting contractor. We are experts in drywall painting and can deliver quality results that exceed your expectations.

Existing Drywall

Your walls are the main things you look at all day, and any dirty areas or holes can be a real eyesore. To refresh your walls or add some color, it makes sense to hire a professional painting contractor. Our team of experts are highly skilled in painting drywall walls and take the following steps to ensure quality results:

• Patch all holes and caulk any open gaps or joints.
• Restore damaged drywall surfaces as close as possible to the original texture.
• Sand all patches, then spot prime to ensure they do not flash once the paint dries.
• Sand any bathroom or kitchen surfaces that have already been coated with an enamel (shiny paint) to break the surface and ensure adhesion of the topcoat.
• Provide a proper estimate of the number of coats the paint will need based on the old and new colors applied for customer transparency.
• Use the correct sized roller cover naps when applying the paint, as to not change the existing texture or add more texture than desired.

New Drywall

As painting contractors, we expect all new drywall surfaces to be prime and paint-ready. The drywall company should have sanded and dusted the surfaces before installation. Our role in painting newly installed drywall generally includes:

• Re-dusting all surfaces to remove any remaining dust.
• Applying PVA wall sealer to all new drywall surfaces.
• Sanding all primed surfaces and then dusting them again.
• Caulking all corners wherever two pieces of drywall meet.

Drywall Skim Coating, Patching and Wall Repair

At Purple Painting, we understand that when new drywall is installed, it needs to be taped and mudded to achieve a seamless finish.

Our experienced team uses top-quality materials and techniques to ensure a perfect finish every time.

If a piece of existing drywall is badly damaged, we will skim coat over it to present a newly finished wall surface that matches existing surfaces surrounding it.
