General Painting Services in Durham, NH
Here's the thing about painting – it sounds simple until you're standing in your living room at 9 PM, covered in paint, wondering why your "quick weekend project" looks like a crime scene.
That's where we come in. At Handymasters Painting Co., we handle everything from touching up a single room to completely transforming your home's exterior. We're not talking about slapping some paint around and hoping for the best – we're talking about the kind of work that makes your neighbors slow down when they drive by.
Whether you're refreshing a bedroom, finally doing something about that outdated kitchen, or tackling the exterior project you've been putting off for three years, we've got the experience and patience to do it right. We've been serving Durham and the Seacoast area long enough to know that good painting isn't just about the paint – it's about the prep work, the right materials, and actually caring about the final result.

What We Actually Do (The Full Picture)
Every painting project is different, but our approach stays the same: listen to what you want, use quality materials, prepare properly, and don't leave until you're genuinely happy with the results. Simple concept, but you'd be surprised how many painters skip steps.
Interior Painting That Actually Lasts
Bedrooms, kitchens, hallways, stairwells – we paint it all. But here's what sets us apart: we use low-VOC paints that won't turn your home into a chemical wasteland, we actually know how to cut clean lines around trim and baseboards, and we treat your furniture like it's our own.
You know that feeling when you walk into a freshly painted room and everything just looks... crisp? That's what we're going for every single time.

Exterior Painting (The Real Deal)
Anyone can paint over old paint. We actually prepare surfaces the right way. That means pressure washing, scraping off loose paint, sanding rough spots, and priming properly. Yes, it takes longer. Yes, it costs a bit more upfront. But when your paint job is still looking great in five years while your neighbor's is already peeling? You'll thank us.
We handle everything – siding, shutters, trim, garage doors, porches, you name it. Because curb appeal isn't just about first impressions; it's about protecting your investment.

Cabinet Painting (Kitchen Makeover Without the Renovation)
Want to update your kitchen without the hassle and cost of a full renovation? Cabinet painting is honestly one of the best bangs for your buck. We remove all the grease and grime buildup (trust us, there's more than you think), sand everything smooth, apply professional primer, and finish with high-quality enamel that can handle daily use.
The result? A kitchen that looks like you spent way more money than you actually did.

Deck and Porch Restoration
New England weather is rough on outdoor wood. Rain, snow, sun, humidity – it all takes a toll. We don't just paint over weathered wood and call it good. We repair damaged boards, prep surfaces properly, and use protective stains or paints that can actually handle what Mother Nature throws at them.
Whether you want to restore that natural wood look or go with a fresh painted finish, we'll make your outdoor space somewhere you actually want to spend time again.

Commercial Painting (For Business Owners and Landlords)
Running a business or managing rental properties? We get it – you need painters who show up on time, work efficiently, and don't disrupt your operations. We've worked with plenty of local business owners and landlords who need reliable service without the drama.
Clean, professional, and always respectful of your tenants and customers. That's how we roll.
