One Level 5
A Level 5 wall is skimmed across its whole face, not only at the joints, then primed and painted so no seam, screw or roller line shows under raking light. It is the standard for large white rooms, for walls behind glass that read from inside and out, and for any surface that will be lit at night.
Two Architectural coatings
High-end interior and exterior painting is the core of the practice. Systems are chosen for the substrate and the exposure, not the brochure. Near the coast, salt, sun and wind sit on every surface from the first day, so finishes are picked for how they age, not only for how they look when the scaffolding comes down.
Three Stucco and specialty surfaces
Stucco and exterior plaster, finished to hold a clean line where plaster meets steel window frames. Specialty surfaces to the architect's or designer's specification, agreed on a sample before the work starts.
Four Historic restoration
Older houses are finished the way they were first finished, as far as the fabric allows. Red trained in England under City and Guilds, where painting was taught as a discipline: the history of paints, color theory and the patience to mix a batch by hand.
