Older homes near downtown

The City of Farmington is smaller and older than the surrounding township, and many of its homes near the downtown area are bungalows, Cape Cods and colonials built decades ago. They tend to have plaster or older drywall, wood trim with many coats of paint, and smaller rooms where careful cutting-in shows.

Interiors with character

We repair plaster cracks, sand down old trim and prime repairs before finish coats. In smaller rooms, clean lines at ceilings and trim are what make the job look finished.

Exteriors

Older wood siding, porches and trim usually need scraping and spot priming, and soft wood is repaired before painting. Brick homes often just need trim, doors, shutters and soffits done well.

Homes built before 1978 may have lead-based paint in older layers. Mention your home's age when you book your estimate.

  • Scraping and sanding
  • Drywall and plaster repair
  • Wood repair where needed

What JMJ Customers Say

★★★★★
“Joe the owner was Very professional, kind and reasonably priced. Employees were just as respectful and thorough through out the whole project. They painted the whole interior of my house, they painted my upper kitchen cabinets and stained my lower and they came out amazing. They also replaced rotted boards on my exterior siding and painted the whole exterior. I have recommended them. They are my go to painters if needed again. Many thanks to Joe and the guys for doing an amazing job. Very pleased.”

“I hired JMJ Painting and Powereasbinh to paint a few rooms in my house and they did a great job. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, and paid close attention to detail. The edges were clean, the finish looks great, and they were careful to protect my furniture and floors. Everything was cleaned up afterward, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. I'm really happy with how it turned out and would definitely recommend them.”
