Interior painting for Tumwater homes and rentals
We provide interior painting in Tumwater for homes, rentals and offices, prepping the walls properly and rolling on even coats in the color and sheen you picked. Rooms come back with clean lines at the ceiling and trim, and the dents and nail holes are fixed first.

About a third of Tumwater homes were built before 1980. If yours is one of them, tell us the year so we can plan lead-safe prep.

Prepare wall repairs before painting the room
Bare compound, failed patches, cracks, texture differences, and changes in sheen can show through a new coat. Painting before the wall is ready can leave surface variations visible after the room is finished.
Solis prepares interior surfaces, coordinates drywall correction and texture blending, then applies primer and finish paint. Carrying preparation into painting gives repaired walls a consistent base for the selected coating.
- Wall repairs and texture prepared before painting.
- Primer and finish coats carried through the selected areas.

Painting Tumwater homes
- 33.5%of Tumwater homes were built before 1980

- 1978Washington's lead-safe renovation cutoff
Washington's lead renovation rules cover housing built before 1978, and a firm must be certified to do paid renovation work under them. WAC 365-230-020 and 365-230-360
- Rented homes in Tumwater

Prepare the surface before choosing coverage
Paint shows whatever is under it. We fill nail holes, fix dents and old patches, and sand down ridges before the first coat. A sound wall getting a new color needs little prep. A room with tape lines and dings needs more, and we'll tell you which before we start.
Lead rules for Tumwater's older homes
Roughly 3,800 Tumwater homes, about a third of the city, were built before 1980. Washington's lead renovation rules cover housing built before 1978, and scraping or sanding old paint in those homes falls under them. The rules treat painting walls that are already prepared as work that doesn't disturb paint. If your house is that old, tell us when you text.

Specify color and sheen by surface
Walls, ceilings and trim usually take different sheens: flat on ceilings, eggshell or satin on walls, semi-gloss on trim and doors. Give us your colors per room, or tell us you're still choosing; we can price the prep and coats while you decide.
Turnover painting for Tumwater rentals
More than a third of Tumwater homes are rentals. For a unit between tenants, text us the room list and a photo of each room, and we'll quote the patching and paint together.
Interior Painting questions in Tumwater
Can interior painting include walls and ceilings?
Yes, and trim and doors too. The quote lists each surface we're painting.
Can painting be combined with drywall repair?
Yes. We fix the drywall first, then paint to a corner or the whole wall so the repair disappears.
