EXPRESS YourSELF Paint

Services We Provide
Express Yourself Paint is about more than just painting your home. Sure, we paint interiors and exteriors and take pride in doing so, but we also offer many other services which might interest you. These aesthetic upgrades will add value and vibrancy to your home. Here’s a look at what we offer!

Interior Painting
When it comes to painting the inside of your home, the benefit to hiring a professional cannot be understated. It can seem like a simple enough process or even an easy DIY job, but it’s a lot of work and getting it done right takes great precision. It is our goal to finish the job both quickly and efficiently, without leaving behind any rough edges or damage to your furnishings or flooring. With paint, it’s easy for things to get messy quickly, especially if you don’t know what you’re doing. When you hire us you can rest easy that your home is in good hands.

Part of our process involves removing electrical covers, taping up baseboards, and covering fixtures and ceiling fans so as not to spread paint to any undesirable surfaces. We also cover your floors and furnishing with drop clothes and plastic to prevent damage. We offer repair of tape seam separation for rooms where the removal of painter’s tape causes a harsh line that’s unappealing, and also minor sheet-rock blemish repair (such as nail pops, dings, and dents). We also offer wallpaper removal before painting. If you’ve ever tried to peel a sticker off anything, you can probably guess how challenging wallpaper removal can be. We’re happy to take care of that hard work for you.

Exterior Painting
Repainting the exterior of your home can extend the life of your home. It’s not just about keeping things pretty; it actually protects your home from the damaging effects of nature. Your home can take quite a beating over the years. Wind, rain, dust, and dirt can really wear down your home’s exterior. In our process, we pressure wash away any mold, mildew, or dirt from the surface of your home before we begin painting. We take care to cover any outdoor furniture or flooring (just as we would in the interior) to protect it from any paint splatter that may occur. We also sand and prime all surfaces in order to have a smooth canvas for the fresh paint. We want your home to look its very best, so we take care to scrape any chipping and putty any holes or crevices which may cause an inconsistent look to the exterior. We spray the trim and the siding with our Capspray 95 HVLP sprayer, providing the most fine finish available. We can even recommend exterior fixtures and fittings that could compliment our work, like MastershieldAtl gutter guards, which are available in an attractive copper finish.

Epoxy Garage Floors
Painting your garage floors makes them shiny and colorful. It brightens up the space, but also offers an oil and stain resistant surface. Epoxy garage floors allow water to bead on the surface, which makes cleaning easy, and provides a skid-resistant surface for extra traction. While painting your garage floor may seem like an easy enough DIY job, we recommend having us do it for you instead. Our experienced installers take care to make sure your floor is finished quickly and efficiently, while saving you the hassle and backbreaking labor of treating it yourself. Our attention to detail makes it worth skipping doing it yourself, providing you that showroom feel to a space that can sometimes feel like more of a dingy workroom. We’ll create a smooth, shiny surface that will add value to your home.

Deck Staining
Outdoor decks get a lot of traffic and constant exposure to the elements. That’s why it’s important to have them treated professionally so they stay looking their best as long as possible. At Express Yourself Paint, we start the process by cleaning your deck. It’s critical to clean before you stain because you don’t want anything trapped under the stain which might reduce the quality of the finished job. Having your deck professionally stained has been proven to extend the life of the stain, as it’s more likely to be applied properly and with the highest quality product. It will save you in the long run on the expense of touch ups and repairs. We offer a variety of stain options, including matching a stain to your exterior paint or customizing a solid stain match. If you prefer a natural wood look, we also offer transparent stains, which will enhance its natural beauty and add luster to your outdoor space. We can also stain in multiple colors and add patterns should you so desire.

Popcorn Ceiling Removal
The quickest way to update an older home is to remove the outdated popcorn ceiling. We offer a smoothing process and attention to detail that will have your ceiling looking brand new and shinier than ever. Aside from being an eyesore, popcorn ceilings can create a lot of dust and can damage with even the most minimal contact. We can scrape and refinish your ceiling to provide the smooth, sleek surface most modern homeowners desire.

Cabinet Resurfacing
Cabinet Resurfacing is a great way to achieve a kitchen remodel without the expense of replacing them entirely. Most older cabinetry is well-built, so preserving it is actually more beneficial than replacing it. By refinishing and resurfacing your cabinets, our team at Express Yourself Paint is able to bring your old cabinets back to life. We provide high-end results, and a price you’ll love. We offer three resurfacing options: wood staining, paint, and lacquer.

Wood staining is the best option for solid cabinets with a beautiful grain to the wood. It brings out the wood’s natural beauty and adds natural depth and long-wearing protection. Painting is simple and cost-efficient. We offer a vast selection of colors so you should have no trouble matching it to the decor of your home. Lacquer provides highly saturated color and a flawless finish. It covers the cabinet with a thicker coating than paint and dries more quickly. With whichever finishing option you choose, our professionals will help you select the best sheen and color available to make your cabinets look better than ever.

Commercial Painting
We have completed several commercial business painting jobs around the Raleigh and Durham area. These have included restaurants, multi-house complexes, and retail shops. Having Express Yourself Paint complete your commercial job saves you the time away from running your actual business to do it yourself, and allows you the assurance of knowing your space will look spotless and professional when we finish. Whether you’re in a new business about to open up or in an older space in need of a touch up, we can help. We provide interior, exterior, rooms and more with fresh paint to give provide your space a unique and personal look in both private businesses and corporate environments.
Our goal in each job we do for you is to customize your home to look exactly as you’ve always wanted. Your home is a canvas, and we can paint it any way you want. Likewise, for our commercial jobs, the way your business looks says a lot about the business itself. Make a bold or a subtle statement, but let us help you.
