Interior Painting Syracuse NY

This week Donigan Painting worked on a 1920's Dutch colonial in Syracuse.  This customer had a large bedroom that had 3 layers of various wallpapers.  After spending two days steam stripping and water infusing the paper it was all removed to reveal plaster walls.  This repaint involved removing an entry way from another room, framing it out and sheet rocking the area.  A pull down door was also removed from the ceiling that led to the attic, framed and sheet rocked.  After applying a few rounds of joint compound the walls were latex primed and thoroughly sanded to a smooth to touch feel.  After taping out all the original oak molding, covering the floors, removing switch-outlet covers we were ready to paint.  One coat of Sherwin Williams Eminence flat bright white ceiling paint was applied to the ceiling and two coats of their Cashmere in a flat sheen called Abalone Shell was applied.  Flat was chosen for this application because typically in older homes that have plaster walls you will see all the inconsistencies throughout it with a higher sheen paint.  It also helps accentuate the custom molding.  Here are some pics of how this job went.
