What’s the correct way to prepare our walls for finished painting?

Painting interior flat walls is simple to do correctly and provides a foundation for a superior interior paint finish. This will make the interior finish look like a true seasoned pro.

Gypsum board walls or older lathe and plaster walls may be prepared in the same manner.

For flat walls with no texture, we like to sand the walls with a pole sander to remove any old flaws or bumps and drips from prior painting jobs. We then wipe down to clean off any dust, fill in small cracks and holes, and make the edges of the patches clean and smooth. We call this feathering—it will make the repairs invisible. We use caulking at edges and smaller openings where trim and walls meet. Caulking is applied as needed with a caulk gun and excess wiped off, most importantly finished with a damp cloth. This is the key to a seamless finish that will not show through when the paint is applied.

RRP and Lead Paint considerations for safe work practice with lead paint for interior painting projects

EPA regulates work done on residences and daycare facilities built before 1978, stating that any painted area with over 6 SF of peeling paint in a building must be considered to have lead paint. Emerald Isle Painting Inc is an EPA-certified renovator contractor with knowledge and experience to protect you and your family from lead paint hazards. Emerald Isle Painting Inc is one of the few Denver Area Painting Contractors that is EPA RRP Certified and has been keeping Denver families safe from lead paint since 2010.

Why is lead-safe practice important?

Lead exposure can occur through inhalation of lead dust or ingestion of lead-contaminated paint chips, dust, or soil. This exposure is particularly dangerous for young children, who are more likely to ingest lead due to hand-to-mouth activities and their growing bodies, which absorb lead more easily.

Here are some of the most serious health effects of lead exposure:

  • Brain and Nervous System Damage
  • Slowed Growth and Development
  • Hearing and Speech Problems
  • Reduced IQ
  • Kidney Disease
  • Heart Disease
  • Reproductive Health Issues
  • High Blood Pressure
  • Anemia
  • Immunotoxicity
  • Toxicity to Reproductive Organs

Children under six years old are most at risk from lead paint exposure because they put their hands and other objects into their mouths, and because their bodies are still growing.
