Most painters “look it over.” We inspect it — systematically.
Before, during, and after every project, we run through our structured 27-point checklist to eliminate missed details and ensure durability.
Pre-Project & Surface Evaluation
1. Moisture check where applicable
2. Substrate condition assessment
3. Caulking and seam inspection
4. Nail pops & drywall flaws identified
5. Rust and corrosion inspection
6. Adhesion check on existing coatings
7. Ventilation & airflow plan
Protection & Preparation
8. Floor covering placement
9. Furniture protection & staging
10. Masking of fixtures & hardware
11. Surface cleaning & degreasing
12. Sanding & feathering transitions
13. Crack & joint reinforcement
14. Spot priming & stain blocking
15. Rust-inhibitive treatment (when needed)
Application Standards
16. Product verification
17. Proper film thickness control
18. Even coverage confirmation
19. Cut-line sharpness inspection
20. Dry time compliance
21. Environmental condition check
Final Quality Control
22. Full lighting walk-through
23. Touch-up verification
24. Hardware & plate reinstallation
25. Cleanup verification
26. Client walk-through review
27. Final approval documentation
This process removes guesswork and dramatically increases finish longevity.
