Stained woodwork to bright white.

Jcb Painting just finished this paint job in Taunton, MA.

It was a total house transformation from dark stained woodwork to bright white.

A lot of prep work went into this job including caulking, puttying, and sanding.

Then 1 coat of bonding primer was applied and finished with 2 coats of top-shelf semi-gloss from Benjamin Moore.

Painting over stained woodwork to bright white makes for a real home improvement project.


This makeover also increases a home's resale value.

From Remodel Or Move.👇

"Painting trim white can definitely increase the value of a home. White trim brings a bright, clean, classic look to a home, instantly increasing its aesthetic appeal. Aside from the cosmetic benefits of painting white trim, white also helps reflect natural and artificial light, which can make rooms appear larger, warmer, and more inviting."👇

"White trim can also be used to highlight architectural features in a room, whereas darker trim can often look flat and boring. Finally, white trim offers flexibility when it comes to styling and accessorizing, as it can easily be matched with virtually any color scheme or design style."

Painted white door and jamb.



"White trim is not going out of style any time soon. White trim is a classic look that has been popular for many years and continues to be sought after. Many people prefer white trim for its clean, classic look, which can make any interior design look crisp and modern."

"People often paint trim white because it provides a crisp, finished look that can brighten up a room and make its architecture stand out. White trim can help draw attention to the various details in a home and create an illusion of more space."

"Finally, white is a timeless, classic color that can pair both warm and cool colors, so it can easily be used in traditional, contemporary, or modern home designs."

Mansfield Bathroom Painters


This is what happens in your bathroom when you take long hot steamy showers and don't use the ceiling fan. Or you have a ceiling fan that is inadequate to do the job. 



Jcb Painting sees a lot of bathrooms like this. Our plan of attack will be to bleach all the moldy areas, (pretty much the whole bathroom here.) scrape away loose peeling paint, and clean up. 

Caulk around the tub enclosure, 
prime the walls and ceiling with a stain-killing oil-based bonding primer, then
paint the ceiling with white ceiling paint. 

and paint with 2 coats of the customer's color choice. Done.

Interior Room Painters in Taunton, MA.

Jcb Painting with another stain to paint job in Taunton, MA.
We first applied a coat of a bonding primer called "StixBonding Primer".
It bonds to the woodwork to give a good foundation for the final 2
coats using Benjamin Moore Regal Classic semi-gloss.
And the walls were patched, sanded and painted with 2 coats of another shade
of gray.
Jcb Painting is getting more and more calls for this type of paint job.

Bathroom prepping before painting.

This is what happens when your bathroom isn't properly prepped and painted. Priming and caulking would have prevented this and saved the homeowner money when they hired Jcb Painting to fix it. 
The original paint job had a really bad caulking job around the vanity and along the baseboard which Jcb Painting had to completely remove and redo. Where the other painter should have absolutely caulked was around the shower enclosure as you can see from the images. 
This bathroom will be finished next Tuesday. Stay tuned.

We see this type of bathroom paint failure quite often. We will be doing mold remediation also.

Starting an interior re-painting job in Foxboro painting walls, ceilings, windows, trim and doors. 5 rooms total. We will first start off with the preparation of the room to be painted, covering all furniture with clean plastic sheeting and the floor with clean drop cloths.
Then remove all pictures, switch and plug plates off the walls to start wall sanding and patching.
After that is done, we will re-caulk all trim. (baseboards, windows, jambs) The caulking will set for 1 day before painting to give a good firm foundation for painting over.

Bonding primer test spot

Yesterday Jcb Painting did a primer test spot on the pool deck to see how it would hold up. Today we will do a test to see how durable the primer is. If it's good to go we will be priming the whole deck.
