Finished Basement Interior Painting

This week Donigan Painting had the pleasure of working at an old neighbors house from Eastwood in Jamesville Dewitt in a Harrington Home.  Jim and Alisa just bought a new home and had their very large basement finished with new walls, flooring, molding, electrical and paint.  Since we were starting with new sheetrock, new primed molding, new raised panel doors a series of paint application's were needed on each surface.  Starting with the new sheet-rock we applied one coat of Purcell's Pittsburgh Seal-Grip Acrylic Primer to all the walls and ceiling.  This primer is a step above the contractor grade primer and provides better coverage and grip for new paint.  It does an excellent job of sealing mudded joints so there is no flashing or paint failure with successive coats.  After the primer had set up over night we applied two coats of Pittsburgh's Bright White Flat Ceiling Paint.  Following the ceilings being painted we applied two coats of Benjamin Moore Ultra-Spec 500 Low Sheen/Eggshell in Grant Beige to the walls.  Once the molding and doors were installed we returned to apply 4 thin coats to the doors and 2 coats to the molding with Benjamin Moore's Advance® Waterborne Alkyd – High-Gloss.  Before applying paint to the doors all hardware was removed and replaced once finished.  We also polyurethaned the stair rail leading to the basement.  Here is how it turned out!

Painting Syracuse NY

This week Donigan Painting had the pleasure of interior painting at a historic home in Syracuse NY.  This customer decided to paint their master bedroom dressing room and a half bath that we remodeled from the studs out.  Their half bath was gutted to the studs, new sheetrock was installed, cement board was installed on the floor, new pex lines were ran, a new pedestal sink was installed as well as a new toilet and a tile floor.  The bathroom was painted using Sherwin-Williams Ovation in a light grey eggshell finish.  Here is how it turned out.

Interior Painting Manlius NY

This week Donigan Painting had the pleasure of painting a few bedrooms in Manlius.  These bedrooms where covered with two layers of water soluble wall paper that was removed.  The walls were floated out with joint compound, sanded to smooth and thoroughly wipe down with a hot-wet sponge.  These customers chose a sage green by Benjamin Moore Paints in an eggshell finish for he walls in each room.  Prior to painting the floors were covered with contractors paper, switch/outlet covers were removed and everything was sanded and cleaned for a smooth finish.  Two coats of high quality paint were then applied using a roller-brush application.  Call for your free estimate and to get it done professionally the first time.

Wall Paper Removal and Painting Syracuse NY

This week Donigan Painting & Remodeling had the pleasure of removing three layers of wallpaper in a home on the west side of Syracuse.  This customer needed their entry hallway, dining room, master and baths wall paper removed.  Once it was all off the walls were floated out with joint compound-sanded and painted with two coats of Benjamin Moore's Ultra-Spec 500 in Gravity Grey, Cream and Sage in an eggshell finish.  The customers were so pleased with the results so far that they have already lined us up to remove the remaining wallpaper in the other rooms and paint additional areas.  Here are some before and after pictures of the work.

Commercial Painting Syracuse NY

Donigan Painting worked at a large warehousing facility last week.  We painted a company's colors throughout their offices and did two sports themed offices.  This particular job required a dark grey primer coat to the block walls because of their high traffic wear and tear.  We applied PPG's Seal Grip Acrylic Primer to all the walls followed by two coats of Ultra Spec 500 Semi Gloss in a maroon color.  The metal doors and frames were two coated with a dark gray PPG product DTM(Direct To Metal) paint that provides a lasting durable finish great for industrial areas.  Gratefully we will be going back to this same facility to paint other areas and continue providing long lasting beautiful finishes for their companies.  Here are some pics of the before and after.

Painting Syracuse NY

Donigan Painting had the pleasure of working on an exterior in Manlius recently.  The house was a beige color that had a ton of chipping and peeling paint.  We started by hand scrapping off all the loose paint and followed up with pressure washing off all the remaining dust-dirt.  Next we oil primed all the bare wood from scrapping and caulked gaps and seams.  Following this two coats of Benjamin Moore's Exterior Aura flat white was applied with a sprayer and brush application.  This is a high quality product that is 100% acrylic so it stretches and sticks on much better than a paint with more water in it.  When protecting your investment it's worth paying a little more for a product that delivers the absolutely best results.  You pay for what you get with paint so spend the extra 15 a gallon and your repaint will last much longer.  The homes shutters where painted a jet black satin finish to wrap this paint job up.
