Rooms and Buildings That Look Renewed
Professional interior and exterior painting for residential and commercial properties in Elon, North Carolina.
When you repaint a room or building in Elon, the finished walls should look smooth and even, without visible roller lines or paint buildup along the trim. Gaspar Garcia Painting handles both residential and commercial projects throughout Elon, covering everything from single-room updates to complete exterior repaints.
Interior painting involves filling cracks and holes, sanding uneven areas, and applying primer where old paint has worn thin or stains have bled through. Exterior painting includes pressure washing surfaces, scraping loose material, and using finishes that resist fading and moisture damage. Both types of work aim for surfaces that look finished and hold up without chipping or peeling within the first few years.
If you need painting work done in Elon, reach out to Gaspar Garcia Painting to discuss the scope and timeline.
How the Work Gets Done From Start to Finish
Interior projects in Elon begin with laying drop cloths and taping off trim, baseboards, and ceilings. Walls are patched with spackle where there are dents or nail holes, then sanded smooth. Primer is applied to bare drywall or stained areas, and the finish coat is rolled on evenly across the surface.
After the paint dries, you will see walls that reflect light consistently and edges that stay sharp where different surfaces meet. Exterior work requires more time because siding must be washed and dried completely before any paint is applied, but the result is a surface that sheds water and resists sun damage.
Commercial projects often involve coordinating access to different areas and working outside regular business hours. The work does not include replacing damaged wood or fixing structural problems, but it does cover the prep and finishing needed to make surfaces look professional and complete.
Things People Ask Before Starting a Project
Before scheduling painting work, most people want to know how long the project takes, what needs to be moved, and whether the paint smell lingers for days.
How long does a typical interior painting project take?
A single room usually takes one to two days, including prep, painting, and drying time. Larger homes or projects with multiple rooms take longer depending on the total square footage and number of coats needed.
What prep work happens before exterior surfaces are painted?
Surfaces are pressure washed to remove dirt, mold, and loose paint. Any remaining peeling material is scraped off, and bare spots are primed before the finish coat is applied.
What is the best time of year to paint the outside of a building in Elon?
Dry weather with moderate temperatures works best, usually from late spring through early fall. Paint needs time to cure without rain or high humidity affecting the finish.
Do I need to empty the room before painting starts?
You can move furniture to the center of the room and cover it with plastic, or remove it entirely if that is easier. The walls just need to be accessible for rolling and cutting in trim.
How is commercial painting different from residential work?
Commercial projects often cover larger areas, require scheduling around business operations, and use finishes designed for higher traffic. Gaspar Garcia Painting coordinates timing to minimize disruption.
