Interior Door and Frame Painting
We prepare and paint door slabs, jambs, stops and frames as one job. The scope covers hardware protection and the time needed before the door can be used normally.

Typical work to discuss
The written estimate confirms what is included for your home.
Typical scope
- Treating leaf, jamb and stop as one set, so the finish reads consistently when the door is open as well as closed.
- Removing or masking hardware rather than cutting around it, which is where doors most often look repainted.
- Testing the existing coating for what it is before recoating.
- Edges and top of the leaf included, since an unsealed top edge takes on moisture and moves.
- Sequencing so doors can be closed overnight without sticking to the jamb.
- Latch and strike operation checked after the finish has built, since coating changes the fit.
What to know before work begins
Existing construction, access and the layers behind the finish determine the sequence and scope.
Plumbing, electrical, gas and HVACWhen a project includes work that requires a licensed trade, the appropriate specialist is engaged for that part of the scope.
Other limits
- A door that binds before painting will bind after it. Fitting problems are adjusted or reported first, not absorbed into a paint job that adds thickness.
- Fire-rated doors are not modified. Where a rated assembly needs work beyond coating, it goes to the discipline responsible for it.
