WHAT HOME OWNERS LOVE ABOUT BRUSH UP PAINTING

Thinking about selling your home? A fresh coat of paint is one of the smartest investments you can make before listing. Not only does it make your home look newer and well cared for, but it also creates the blank canvas that buyers are looking for — helping your property stand out and sell faster, often for a higher price.
At Brush Up Painting, we specialize in helping homeowners refresh their interiors with neutral, inviting colors that appeal to a wide range of buyers. With over 20 years of trusted service in Durham, our family-owned team knows exactly what today’s market demands and how to make your home show its best.

Get Your Home Market-Ready with Professional Painting That Sells

Fresh, neutral walls that help your home show its best and appeal to every buyer.

Clients often say, “They treat our home as if it were their own”
and we take that to heart on every single project.

When selling your home, color matters more than you might think. Neutral shades like soft grays, warm whites, and light taupes help buyers picture their own furniture and style in the space. These tones photograph beautifully for listings and open up rooms, making them appear larger and more inviting.

Not sure which colors will appeal most to buyers in your area? Our experienced team can guide you through the best-selling color palettes that realtors and stagers love — ensuring your home looks polished, timeless, and ready to impress.

CHECK LIST

At Brush Up Painting, we recognize that every interior painting project is unique and requires individualized attention. 

Here's what you can expect when working with us for all your interior painting needs: 

Initial Consultation We begin every project with a detailed consultation to discuss your goals and answer any questions you may have. This allows us to fully understand your vision and the scope of the work, ensuring we can recommend the most suitable products, techniques, and timelines.

Preparation Before any work begins, our team takes great care to protect your home and ensure superior results. We start by covering all floors, carpets, and furniture to safeguard your space. Next, we meticulously prepare the surfaces by patching holes, filling cracks, caulking where necessary, and sanding to achieve a smooth and even finish—setting the foundation for exceptional, long-lasting results.

Painting & Finishing Touches
 

Once all preparation is complete, we begin the painting process using only premium products and proven techniques to deliver exceptional, long-lasting results. Depending on your project’s needs, this may include multiple coats of paint and detailed finishing touches to ensure a flawless, high-quality finish.


START PAINTING PROJECT

"We've been working with Michael and his team at Brush Up Painting for over 10 years. Shortly after we moved in, Michael painted the entire interior of our home and later, the entire exterior as well. Over the years, we’ve brought him back many times for “room refreshes” as our children grew out of their childhood spaces, as we renovated.

Michael always provides honest quotes with no surprises, and his work is impeccable. When you hire Brush Up Painting, you can expect the highest level of professionalism from clear, timely communication to a beautifully finished job. They truly treat your home as if it were their own, which is why we continue to trust them with all of our projects, big and small.

Give them a call and get a quote, you’ll be so glad you did."

First impressions count. When potential buyers walk through your home, they’re not just looking at walls — they’re imagining themselves living there. Clean, freshly painted rooms signal that a home has been well maintained, while dated or damaged walls can leave the opposite impression.

Our team helps you eliminate the distractions that turn buyers away — such as cracks, nail pops, stains, scuffs, and uneven paint. We repair minor wall imperfections, smooth out surfaces, and apply crisp, even coats of paint that make every room feel bright, clean, and move-in ready.

FANTASTIC!  Turned a giant grass green bedroom into a beautiful place!  Michael is professional, punctual, skilled, articulate and has an A+ work ethic!  Can't give him enough praise for his hard work and skill.  His edging techniques are superior!  Gorgeous smooth, straight lines at ceilings, in corners and at base boards!  Thanks, Michael!  Here's to our next project!

"Can't give him enough praise for his hard work and skill."

Will E.

This is the second time I've hired Michael and once again he's done an excellent job.  He's without a doubt the most professional, courteous and conscientious painter (and frankly best tradesman) I've ever dealt with. I through all sorts of challenges his way including rescheduling, working around other trades, changing wall colors in two rooms half way through.  You name it and he took everything in stride. When we're ready to paint our exterior I will hire him again.
