Project Showcase
This gallery shows recent work in local homes and light-commercial spaces. You will see repaints, drywall repair, feature walls, exterior refresh work, and make-ready resets.
Each set reflects the actual work delivered, photographed on site. Use it to judge surface readiness, linework, and the finished result.
Method-first execution, controlled details, and a turnover-ready finish.
Showcase at a glance
Featured: La Grange Commercial Refresh
Wallcovering sealed or removed, plaster defects corrected, then primed and painted for a uniform, bright finish. Ceiling tiles and grid were spray-finished to match. Cables were routed and the space returned lease-ready.
Work Included
- Seal/remove wallpaper; prime and paint
- Plaster crack and corner repairs for straight edges
- Spray finish on ceiling tiles and grid
- Neutral wall color for a smooth turnover
- Light cable management and reset at finish
Ideal for turnovers, pre-lease make-ready, utility rooms, and back-of-house areas. To price a similar project, use the Estimate page and share a few photos.

Before & After
Drywall Repair
Cut-out patch with corner reinforcement, then primer and paint for a flat, blended finish. Camera angles match so the change is easy to judge.
Interior Repaint
Straight lines, protected floors, and sharp trim edges. I color-match when practical or plan a light refresh that lifts the room.
