- Perform high-quality interior and exterior painting on walls, ceilings, trim, doors, cabinetry, millwork, and architectural details.
- Produce exceptionally smooth, consistent finishes with clean lines, uniform sheen, and minimal visible brush or roller texture.
- Execute brush, roller, and spray applications as appropriate to the substrate and specified finish.
- Work confidently with premium waterborne and solvent-based coatings, primers, enamels, stains, and clear finishes.
- Match existing paint colors, sheen levels, and finish appearance when performing repairs or selective restoration.
- Perform detailed preparation and finishing of fine millwork, doors, cabinetry, baseboards, crown moldings, and other architectural elements.
- Protect adjacent finished surfaces, furnishings, flooring, hardware, stone, glass, and other architectural materials.
- Maintain an exceptionally clean and organized work environment, particularly within occupied residences.
- Identify substrate or existing-finish conditions that may affect the final result and communicate concerns before proceeding.
- Perform punch-list corrections and final touch-ups to a high standard.
- Follow project specifications, approved samples, manufacturer requirements, and direction from project supervision.
Requirements
- Minimum 5 years of professional fine-painting experience, preferably within luxury residential, museum-quality, hospitality, or similarly demanding environments.
- Strong knowledge of surface preparation and premium architectural coating systems.
- Demonstrated ability to achieve high-level finishes on walls, ceilings, trim, millwork, cabinetry, and doors.
- Excellent cutting, brushing, rolling, sanding, and finishing skills.
- Spray-finishing experience is highly desirable.
- Ability to recognize imperfections under critical lighting and correct them appropriately.
