Painting and Remodeling in Short Hills
Short Hills sits just over the Morris County line, in Millburn Township in Essex County. Its homes are some of the most varied in the area: Tudors with stucco and half-timbering, stately center-hall colonials, early twentieth-century houses with rich millwork, and large newer homes built on the same lots. What they have in common is detail, and detail is what takes the time on a painting or remodeling job.
Millwork Worth Doing Properly
Many Short Hills homes have crown molding, raised-panel wainscoting, built-in bookcases and deep window casings. Painting that well is slow work: every seam caulked, every nail hole filled, every profile sanded so the paint lies smooth in the grooves. When a room needs new trim to match the old, our own carpenters build it and our painters finish it, so the new work cannot be told apart from the original.
Tall Rooms and Open Plans
Larger and newer homes often have two-story family rooms and foyers, and open plans where one wall color runs through several rooms. We use scaffolding for the high walls and plan the order of work so the rooms you use most are back in use first.
