Painting Project Photos

These photos cover interior and exterior painting, from single-room refreshes to full-home repaints, cabinet refinishing, and specialty finishes like feature walls and limewash. What separates a paint job that lasts two years from one that lasts ten happens before any paint goes on: drywall repair, sanding, caulking, priming, and stain-blocking on ceilings and walls with water or nicotine staining that would otherwise bleed through a finish coat.

Cabinet refinishing, shown in several of these photos, is sprayed rather than brushed using a hybrid enamel that levels out brush marks and cures hard enough for daily kitchen use. A single room typically takes 2 to 5 days and starts from $500, with a whole-home repaint running considerably longer once you account for prep work in a house with older plaster walls, moulding, and multiple coats of previous paint to work around. Exterior photos in this gallery cover siding, brick, trim, and doors finished in coatings built to hold their colour and seal against Ontario's weather rather than fading and chalking within a few seasons.
