Cutting in is where a real painter shines! It's a skill that takes patience, a keen eye and a steady hand. With or without tape after 15 years in the trade working all over Canada, I have developed many different strategies to making sure those edges looks clean, straight and solid!
Don't let the advertisements and the movies fool you! Professional grade rolling is not as simple as it may seem. Proper rolling technique and knowing how to work with each coat is the key to making your walls look amazing at every angle, and in any lighting!

QUALITY
Preperation
Doing the prep properly is absolutely what makes the difference in the quality of the outcome! As a professional journeyman painter I can easily say it's a good sixty percent of the job. Skipping any of these steps results in a less than satisfactory outcome, and in my true and honest experiences, this is where many painters fall short.
Application
Using the right product for the right application is something that comes with years of painting experience. Don't listen to what the paint stores tell you, they are trained to push certain products that may not always be best or suitable for what you need! I have the knowledge to use the right product for a durable and lasting finish, on any surface.
Color Design
Color design can really make a drab room into something spectacular. It can add flow, make a room seem bigger, or accentuate certain features and design points. Certain colors inspire certain feelings for mood control. The possibilities are literally endless. It can even easily land you more cash on your house sale or rental property!
