Ceiling Painting.
Carrigan Painting / The Carrigan Archives / Interior Painting / Ceilings
We repair minor ceiling damage prior to applying two full coats of paint to all ceilings. While in some cases a single coat of paint will “cover” a ceiling, often there are holidays and sheen mismatching. Two coats makes for a better looking ceiling in almost all instances.
