New Mexico's UV intensity and monsoon cycles punish cheap paint. We select coatings rated for high-altitude sun exposure, apply them over properly prepped surfaces, and back our work with a written warranty. Your home's exterior is its first impression — we make it count.

From single rooms to whole-home refreshes, we work cleanly, efficiently, and with full furniture protection. We match New Mexico's warm light — consulting on undertones and finishes so your colors look right at golden hour, not just in the store.

A full cabinet replacement costs thousands. A professional refinish — done with the right prep, primer, and topcoat — delivers a near-identical result at a fraction of the cost. We spray, we don't brush, for a factory-smooth finish.

Limewash, clay paint, Venetian plaster, faux adobe — New Mexico homes call for finishes that honor the territory. We bring the technique to deliver them authentically, not as an afterthought.

Most single-family exteriors take 2–4 days depending on size, surface condition, and prep needed. We factor in New Mexico's afternoon wind and UV — we don't rush dry times to hit a schedule.
We specify high-solids, UV-resistant exterior coatings rated for high-altitude sun exposure and freeze-thaw cycles. Brands like Sherwin-Williams Duration and Emerald are standard on our exterior jobs. We never use builder-grade paint on a client's home.
Yes. We'll review your space, lighting conditions, and existing finishes before recommending colors. New Mexico's golden-hour light reads very differently than a paint chip in a store — we account for that.
Typically 1–2 weeks for most residential jobs. Spring and fall book fastest in New Mexico. If you have a deadline — a sale, an event, a rental turnover — tell us upfront and we'll work around it.
