Boise House Painters and Epoxy Floor Coatings

Yes, we work in Boise. Family-owned, 28+ years across the Treasure Valley, with crews running east into Boise every week from our Meridian shop. We handle everything from a 1920s North End bungalow that needs a lead-safe prep approach down to a 2018 SE Boise new build that wants a kitchen color change.

Boise neighborhoods we work in

North End and Hyde Park. Craftsman bungalows, original trim, original siding. Plenty of pre-1978 homes here, which means lead-safe practices on any exterior or interior repaint that disturbs old paint. We are trained on it and we do it right.
East End. Older bungalows mixed with newer infill. Plaster walls, original trim, and exteriors that need real prep more often than not.
Boise Bench. 1950s and 1960s ranches with siding and trim that has seen multiple paint cycles. We strip, prime where needed, and put on two coats that will hold through Idaho summers.
Downtown and BoDo. Commercial repaints, office spaces, retail interiors. After hours and weekend scheduling available so we are not in your tenants’ way during business hours.
Harris Ranch, Surprise Valley, SE Boise. Newer construction east of Apple Street. Exterior repaints, cabinet refinishing, garage epoxy.
Foothills neighborhoods. Crane Creek, Highlands. Larger lots, larger jobs, lots of cabinet refinishing and high-end interior work.

What older Boise houses actually need

A Boise house painted before 1978 needs a different conversation than a 2020 build in Meridian. Here is the honest version of what we do.

Lead-safe prep on pre-1978 homes. Federal RRP rule. Plastic containment, HEPA vacuum cleanup, wet methods for sanding. We do not pretend it is not required and we do not charge for it on a job that does not need it.
Wood siding prep. Scrape loose paint, spot prime bare wood with an oil or shellac primer (depending on the wood and the tannin situation), caulk every gap, then two coats of exterior latex. This is the part that determines whether your paint job lasts five years or fifteen.
Original trim preservation. Older Boise homes often have trim worth keeping. We mask, sand, prime, and brush in tight cut lines instead of pulling and replacing.
Plaster wall repair. Older Boise interiors are plaster, not drywall. Hairline cracks, patch and skim, sand smooth, then prime and paint. Different process than skimming new drywall.
Window casing and storm window work. Brush only, oil-based primer on bare wood window casing in some cases, then trim enamel topcoat.

Jake and his team have painted the inside and outside of my home a couple of times. I wouldn't use anyone else. Very professional, clean and gets the work done fast. I highly recommend, especially if you want it done right the first time.

Common Questions in Boise

Do you handle lead-safe prep on older Boise homes?

Yes. Homes in the North End and East End built before 1978 can have lead paint. We are EPA RRP trained and follow lead-safe prep and cleanup, so an older Boise house gets repainted without spreading dust around the neighborhood.

Can you paint plaster walls and not just drywall?

We can. A lot of older Boise homes have plaster, which cracks and takes paint differently than drywall. We prep and patch plaster the right way so the finish does not telegraph every old crack.
