ONE CREW. EVERY COAT.
Halfmoon paints the inside, the outside, the cabinets and the fence — interiors in washable matte, exteriors in three-coat systems, cabinetry tented and sprayed factory-flat. One quote names every coat; one foreman answers for all of it.
Services
The six trades
01
Interior repaints
Walls washed, gloss killed, nail heads cut out and re-primed, then two coats of washable matte rolled and laid off wet. A four-room floor is a Monday-to-Thursday job with the furniture moved by us.
02
Exterior systems
Scrape to sound film, spot-prime every bare patch, one bond coat, one finish coat — sprayed on and back-brushed while wet so the film rides the grain instead of sitting on it. Written for cedar, clapboard, fibre-cement and stucco.
03
Cabinet spraying
Doors and drawers come off, get bagged and tented, and receive four thin coats of catalysed enamel — no brush marks, no orange peel, back on their hinges the same week. Kitchens average three days.
04
Decks, rails & fences
Stripped or brightened, then flooded with penetrating oil or solid stain in a colour you chose from a sample brushed on your own boards. Rails are done by hand — spraying a rail mostly repaints the hedge.
05
Wallpaper & feature walls
Booked the old way, hand-trimmed, pattern centred on the chimney breast. Grasscloth, murals and hand-blocked prints sourced and hung, with offcuts kept for the day a seam needs an invisible repair.
06
Commercial & strata
Storefronts, stairwells and multi-unit contracts from two thousand to forty thousand square feet — night crews so the shop never closes, fixed-price contracts, one supervisor whose phone gets answered.
What we do
Three jobs, up close
The three-coat exterior
Day one is the ugly one: scraping, sanding and priming, with a HEPA extractor on anything pre-1978 and containment tape where the chips fall. Day two is the bond coat; day three, the finish, sprayed and back-brushed. Day four you get your garden back, power-swept.
The kitchen spray
We tent the run, extract through a window, and spray four coats of 2K enamel that cures hard enough for keys and kettles by the weekend. The hardware goes back on the same doors it came off — labelled in a muffin tin, because guessing is how handles get lost.
The colour call
Every quote includes an hour with large swatches on your own walls under your own light. North rooms eat colour; south rooms inflate it. We would rather lose an afternoon than watch you live with a gallon of regret.
Halfmoon did the outside in April and the kitchen in June, and it was the same three faces both times — the person who quoted it, the person who sprayed it, and the person who swept the drive at the end of both. Try finding that anywhere else in the valley.
Name the job. We will name the coats.
Inside, outside or the cabinets — one visit, one quote, every coat listed with its price. crews@halfmoonpainters.example
