Interior and exterior paintingInterior, exterior, decks

Walls, ceilings, trim and built-ins inside; siding, trim, porches and decks outside. Painting is the job C&A’s customers mention most on Google.

What does C&A paint?

Inside, walls, ceilings, trim, doors and built-ins. Outside, siding, trim and porches, plus pressure washing and touch-ups. In the company’s own description, whether the job is interior or exterior painting, pressure washing or touch-ups, the crew goes above and beyond to meet what each client wants.

It’s also the work customers talk about most. Google sorts the company’s 35 reviews by topic, and painting comes up in seven of them, more than any other trade.

Exterior painting and porches

Exterior work includes the second-story trim most homeowners can’t reach safely, painted from the ladder, and covered porches like the one below. Pressure washing is on C&A’s list too, so dirt and mildew can come off before new paint goes on. The painting crew works anywhere in the service area, from Bellevue and Belle Meade to Brentwood and Smyrna.

Deck staining and sealing

A stain or sealer keeps a wood deck from graying and checking in the sun. C&A’s reviewers have had both done, and because the company’s framers build decks, loose or rotten boards can be replaced before the finish goes on.

What moves the price of a paint job?

Square footage is only the start. Ceilings and trim add time, walls with nail pops or cracks need patching first, and a big color change, dark to light especially, often means another coat. New drywall needs a primer coat before any color. C&A also hangs and finishes drywall, so a wall that needs repair and paint is one job.

Small painting jobs

A single room, a scuffed hallway or a front door is a reasonable call. Madison W., who came to C&A on an interior designer’s recommendation, has had painting done along with a ceiling fan and deck sealing.

Questions

Painting questions

What people ask about painting before they call.

Do you paint both interiors and exteriors?

Yes. C&A paints inside and out: walls, ceilings, trim, built-ins, porches and second-story exterior trim worked from a ladder. The crew also pressure washes and does touch-ups, and painting is the job customers mention most on Google, named in seven of the company’s 35 reviews.

Do you stain or seal decks?

Yes. Two of C&A’s Google reviewers name it outright: one had decks stained at two different homes, and another had a deck sealed along with interior painting and a ceiling fan. If the deck needs boards or framing fixed first, the same company builds decks, so both can go on one estimate.

How much does it cost to paint a room?

It depends on the room’s size, whether the ceiling and trim are included, how much patching the walls need, and the color change; going from a dark color to a light one usually takes an extra coat. C&A gives a free estimate for one room or a whole house.

Do I need primer on new drywall before painting?

Yes. Bare drywall paper and joint compound soak up paint at different rates, so without a primer coat the seams show through as dull patches. Because C&A hangs and finishes drywall as well as painting it, one crew carries a new wall from bare board to the final coat.

Do you do small touch-up painting jobs?

Yes. Touch-ups are on C&A’s own list of painting services, right next to interior and exterior painting and pressure washing. A few scuffed walls, one door or a stretch of trim is worth a call to (615) 500-4266, and the estimate is free whatever the size.
