What makes an interior painting job Ottawa-specific
Prep is most of the job
A clean line and an even coat come from the patching, sanding, and taping that happens before a roller ever touches the wall – we don't skip it.
Century homes vs. new builds
Older Ottawa homes often have plaster walls, uneven corners, and multiple old paint layers that need different prep than a builder-grade new-build wall – we adjust for the house we're actually in.
One room or the whole floor
Most of our painting calls are a single room or an accent wall – we don't require a whole-house minimum to take the job.
Prepped for the house you have
Painting that accounts for your home's age
Many Ottawa neighbourhoods mix century-old homes with builds from every decade since, and older plaster walls take paint differently than newer drywall – more prep, different primer, sometimes a different sheen to hide surface imperfections. We assess the wall itself before quoting, not just the square footage.

Signs it's time to call
If your walls are dull, marked, or just not the colour you want anymore, or you're prepping a room before selling or renting, or an older plaster wall needs more prep before paint will hold – that's when interior painting calls typically come in.
What's involved
We assess the wall itself before quoting – older plaster takes different prep and primer than newer drywall – and we're happy to colour-match an existing can or code so a touch-up or accent wall blends in rather than standing out.
Keeping it fixed
A quality paint job holds its finish for years, but high-touch areas like hallways and stairwells show wear first – keeping a small labelled sample of your paint colour on hand makes a future touch-up quick and seamless.
What it typically costs
Interior Painting
$350-$800
Covers per room, paint included. Final pricing depends on scope – every quote is written and free.
Room size, wall condition, and how many coats it takes to cover the existing colour all factor in – a dark wall going lighter usually needs an extra coat, and older plaster can need more prep time than newer drywall.

Common questions
Do I need to buy the paint?
No – we can supply the paint, or use paint you've already picked out. Either way works.
How long does one room take?
A typical bedroom or office is usually a one-day job including prep, two coats, and cleanup.
Do you match existing paint colours?
Yes – bring us the can, the colour code, or even just the wall, and we'll match it as closely as possible before starting.
