Interior Painters in New Jersey

Most single-room projects are completed in one day. A full-home interior typically takes two to five days depending on the square footage, number of rooms, and level of prep work required.

We ask that you remove small and fragile items from the room. Our crew will move larger furniture to the center and cover everything with protective drop cloths before we begin.

Yes. We carry a full selection of low-VOC and zero-VOC premium paints from trusted brands like Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams — ideal for families with children, pets, or sensitivities.

Interior painting is priced by the room and the surfaces in it rather than by a flat rate. The main factors are the size of the room and ceiling height, how many surfaces are included (walls only, or ceilings, trim and doors too), how much patching and priming the walls need, color changes that take an extra coat, and the paint line you choose. Every estimate is free and itemized, and our cost guide sets out typical New Jersey price ranges.

Yes. Ceilings, baseboards, crown molding, window and door casings, interior doors, railings and two-story stairwells and foyers are all part of what we paint. Trim and doors get an enamel suited to high-touch surfaces, and tall stairwells are set up with the right ladders or staging so the walls and ceiling can be painted safely without marking the treads.

Walls, ceilings, baseboards, crown molding, window and door casings, interior doors, railings and stairwells, along with the prep they need: furniture moved and covered, floors protected, holes and cracks patched and sanded, gaps caulked, stains spot-primed and two finish coats cut in by hand. Your written estimate lists exactly which rooms and surfaces are included.

Eggshell for most living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms, satin for kids’ rooms, mudrooms and busy hallways, flat for ceilings, and a satin or semi-gloss enamel for trim and doors. Sheen names vary between brands, so we confirm the exact product and sheen with you at the color consultation.

Yes, that is how most of our interior work is done, so your interior painter plans the job around your household. We work room by room, keep the rest of the house usable, clean up at the end of every day and use low-VOC paints. Paint feels dry within hours, but treat new walls gently and avoid scrubbing them for the first two weeks while the finish cures.

Yes. Nail pops, cracks, dents and small holes in drywall and sheetrock are patched and sanded as part of every interior job. Larger drywall repairs, water-damaged ceilings and popcorn ceiling removal are quoted separately on the estimate. Plaster is a different trade and not something we take on — on an older plaster-walled home we will tell you at the estimate what needs a plasterer first.

Yes. NJ Painting Co. is a family-owned, licensed and fully insured residential painting contractor based in Morganville, with more than 20 years of experience painting homes in Monmouth, Middlesex, Ocean, Mercer, Somerset and Burlington counties, plus Union, Essex, Hudson, Bergen and Passaic in North Jersey.

Absolutely. Every interior project includes a complimentary color consultation. We help you explore palettes, finishes, and accent options so you feel confident before the first coat goes on.

Yes. Concrete and block walls, drywall and exposed joist ceilings are all painted, with moisture checked first and a masonry primer and breathable paint on dry masonry. We are not a waterproofing company, so a damp or leaking wall has to be fixed before it is painted, and a basement floor can be coated with epoxy instead.

Yes, both. Wallpaper is stripped, the adhesive washed off and the walls primed and painted; we remove wallpaper but do not hang it. Popcorn ceilings are scraped, skimmed smooth and painted, after a ceiling from before the 1980s has been tested for asbestos.
