Fishers large interior painting project

I just finished a painting project for a customer who is putting her house up for sale. I have done various other painting for this customer over the past three years and she called me when she needed to repaint the rest of her rooms. I painted her master bathroom, guest bathroom, entryway, living room, dining room, office, hallways, and laundry room. I also pressure washed her deck and outside entryway and touched up a lot of the trim and ceilings at no cost. So this was a large project and took me four days to complete by myself.

For the walls, I used Sherwin Williams ProMar 200 in a flat sheen and the color was Kilim Beige for most of the rooms. I did use Soften Green for her master bath, which was the same color as her master bedroom that I painted three years ago.

Steps:

1. Sanded all the walls;
2. Washed all the walls;
3. Spackled all the holes and other dings;
4. Lightly sanded all the areas I spackled with 220 grade sandpaper;
5. Taped out all the trim in order to keep paint off the trim;
6. Applied first coat of paint and let dry for 4 hours;
7. Applied second coat of paint;
8. Pulled all the tape;
9. Touched up trim and ceilings around the house;
10. Vacuumed;
11. Pressure washed the deck and front outside entryway.

 Challenges:

1 - A lot of preparation including wall repair and cleaning;

2 - Furniture moving.
