Project Overview
PAINT Philadelphia completed a cheerful interior painting refresh for a home on Barringer St, Philadelphia, PA. The homeowners wanted a lighter, happier palette that would brighten the main hallway and a newly finished lower level while keeping the trim crisp and durable. With no specific products requested, our crew focused on protection, smooth prep, and clean cut lines so each space feels organized and welcoming.
Colors & Surfaces We Painted
From the photos, the primary wall color is a soft pastel green—a fresh, pistachio-mint tone that lifts light in both natural and recessed settings. Ceilings were finished clean white to keep rooms open and airy, and door frames, baseboards, and doors were painted bright white for sharp contrast.
Surface type & areas:
- Drywall walls in the upstairs hallway, bedrooms, and full basement
- Ceilings throughout, including low basement soffits with recessed lighting
- Interior doors and frames for a uniform, like-new profile
- Baseboards and trim, tuned for tight, shadow-free edges
The soft green reads calm in the hallway and lively in the basement, pairing well with light gray carpet and white fixtures.
Prep, Process & Results
We protected flooring, rails, and fixtures, then repaired nail pops and seams for smooth, level planes—important for the long hallway sightline and the extended basement walls. Caulk closed small gaps at casings and baseboards; sheen variations were controlled with spot priming so the final finish looks even under every light. We brush-and-rolled the walls for a consistent texture, refined corners for straight color breaks, and finished doors and trim with a durable, wipe-clean sheen.
The result is a home that feels brighter and more connected. The soft pastel green brings energy without overwhelming, the white ceilings add lift, and the crisp trim frames every opening. Another tidy, long-lasting interior painting update—delivered on schedule and with a thorough cleanup—by PAINT Philadelphia.
