Interior Painting
Transform your living spaces with thorough surface preparation, clean masking, and premium interior paint applied by our in-house craftsmen.
INTERIOR PAINTING & TRIM FINISHING
Careful Prep, Clean Lines & Beautiful Results.
A great interior paint job starts long before a can of paint is opened—with thorough surface prep and respect for your home. Before painting your walls, ceilings, baseboards, trim, or door jambs, our in-house craftsmen mask and protect your floors, carpets, furniture, countertops, light fixtures, and hardware with drop cloths and plastic sheeting. We then clean and dust target surfaces, patch and sand small dents and nail holes, re-caulk trim seams, and spot-prime repairs before applying two full coats for uniform coverage and depth of color.

Questions about Interior Painting?
What surface preparation is included in an interior painting project?
Every interior project begins with masking and protecting your non-painted surfaces—including floors, carpets, furniture, countertops, light fixtures, windows, and hardware—using drop cloths and plastic sheeting throughout work areas and walkways. Before applying two full coats of paint, our craftsmen clean and dust surfaces to remove oils and dirt buildup, fill and sand small wall dents, nail/screw holes, and minor drywall cracks, lightly sand patch areas for proper bonding, re-caulk cracked or missing seams along baseboards and door casings with paintable acrylic latex sealant, and spot-prime bare drywall, patches, and water stains with a high-adhesion interior primer.
Do you offer color consulting? Do certain colors require more than two coats?
Yes, every booked interior painting project includes a complimentary in-house color consultation at no additional fee to take the stress out of selecting the right color palette for your space. Our base pricing covers standard two-coat coverage across all included surfaces. Please note that dramatic color changes, deep base shifts, or certain high-hiding/deep whites that require 3 coats for full coverage (such as Chantilly Lace, Simply White, or Decorator’s White) may incur an additional coating fee, which we will always review with you upfront.
How should I prepare my rooms before the crew arrives, and how is cleanup handled?
While our crew handles all floor protection, furniture masking, and plastic sheeting, we ask homeowners to provide a clear, unobstructed work environment by removing personal belongings, breakables, and small items from the work areas prior to our crew’s arrival. At the completion of the project, we remove and properly dispose of all masking tape, plastic, drop cloths, paper, and job-related trash, and our crew lead conducts a final walk-through inspection to review the overall work quality and ensure everything meets our standards.
Are drywall repairs included with interior painting?
Standard interior painting prep includes filling, patching, and sanding small wall dents, nail or screw holes, and minor drywall cracks, followed by spot-priming all patched areas before topcoating. Major drywall replacement, structural repairs, or remediation of ongoing moisture leaks are not included in a standard paint scope—if your home needs larger sheetrock replacement or texture work, we can itemize that separately on your proposal.
Who will be working inside my home and is your work guaranteed?
Every Kelly Brothers Painting crew consists of 100% in-house, full-time craftsmen—never subcontractors. We employ local painters across Reno and Tahoe with an average company tenure of 8 years, licensed in Nevada (NV Lic. #68238) and California (CA Lic. #822843). All interior painting work is backed by our one-year workmanship guarantee following completion.
