Painting and Remodeling in Bernardsville
Bernardsville is at the heart of the Somerset Hills. On the mountain above town are the large estates of the old Mountain Colony, some of them more than a century old, along with newer homes built on the hillsides. Closer to the center of town and the train station are older homes on smaller lots. It is a place where houses tend to have a lot of detail, and where doing the prep properly matters most.
Walls Worth Preparing Properly
Many older Bernardsville homes still have plaster walls. Plaster lasts for generations, but it cracks, and it moves at the same weak points again and again. Before painting, we secure loose areas, open and fill the cracks, skim where the surface is uneven and prime, so the finished wall is smooth and stays that way. The photo above shows exactly that kind of prep in progress.
Trim, Tall Rooms and Outbuildings
Larger homes here often have deep crown molding, paneled rooms, two-story foyers and a garage or carriage house that should match the main house. We handle all of it, with scaffolding for the tall spaces and our own carpenters to repair or replace trim before it is painted.
