What Our Painting Service Includes
Full-Scope Interior And Exterior Painting
True Grit Construction provides complete painting services designed to protect surfaces, improve appearance, and deliver consistent color and sheen across every area. Our work can include interior walls and ceilings, trim and doors, cabinets, exterior siding, fascia, soffits, fences, and other paintable surfaces—each approached with the right coating system for the material and exposure conditions.
A successful paint job depends on more than the final coat. We plan the workflow around surface condition, lighting, ventilation, humidity, cure times, and how you use the space. This helps minimize disruption while ensuring proper adhesion, even coverage, and a finish that looks clean and stays durable over time.
The Steps That Make Paint Last
Preparation is the foundation of a long-lasting finish. We inspect surfaces for peeling, chalking, stains, cracks, and prior coating failures, then address issues with appropriate methods such as cleaning/degreasing, scraping, sanding, patching, caulking, and spot-priming. For exteriors, we focus on removing contaminants and stabilizing weathered surfaces so new coatings bond correctly.
We also protect your property throughout the project. Floors, fixtures, landscaping, and non-painted surfaces are masked or covered, and work areas are kept organized to reduce dust and overspray risk. Edges and transitions—around baseboards, windows, outlets, and hardware—are carefully detailed to produce crisp lines and a professional, finished look.
Choosing The Right Coating For Each Area
Different rooms and exterior surfaces require different products. We help select paints and primers based on traffic, moisture, sunlight exposure, existing coatings, and substrate type. For example, washable and stain-resistant options are often ideal for hallways and living areas, while moisture-resistant coatings are better suited for bathrooms, laundry rooms, and kitchens.
Sheen selection matters for both appearance and maintenance. Flat and matte finishes can reduce the look of surface imperfections, while eggshell and satin provide a balance of durability and cleanability. Semi-gloss and gloss are commonly used for trim, doors, and cabinets where abrasion resistance and wipeability are important.
Color choices affect mood, brightness, and how consistent walls appear under changing light. We can help you evaluate undertones, coordinate trim and wall colors, and plan accent walls or feature areas. When needed, we recommend testing samples on multiple walls to see how color shifts throughout the day before committing to the full application.

Our Process And What To Expect
Clear Communication From Start To Finish
In Porterville, True Grit Construction begins with an on-site evaluation to understand your goals, surface conditions, and the level of preparation required. We discuss color plans, sheen preferences, repair needs, and any scheduling considerations, then outline the recommended scope so you know what will be painted, how it will be prepped, and what results to expect.
Once the plan is approved, we schedule the work and keep you informed as the project progresses. In Porterville, we focus on consistent coverage, uniform cut-in lines, and proper dry and cure times between coats to avoid flashing, lap marks, or premature wear. We also maintain a clean jobsite and work carefully around furnishings, landscaping, and daily routines.
After completion, we walk through the painted areas with you to confirm the finish meets expectations. In Porterville, our goal is a result that looks great on day one and continues to perform—so we provide guidance on ventilation, gentle cleaning methods, and reasonable care tips to help your new paint job stay vibrant and durable for years.
