Here’s what Fagan Painting LLC brings to your next project:
Walls, Trim & Ceilings
* Flawless Finishes: From smooth plaster walls in historic homes to new drywall in recent builds, we perfect surfaces before applying any paint. Expect crisp, straight lines (never wavy tape marks), smooth corners, and even color saturation in every room. * All Finishes—Your Choice: We apply matte, eggshell, satin, semi-gloss, and gloss finishes to suit bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, and living rooms—always advising on the best durability, reflectivity, and style for each surface. * Multi-Room & Whole House Expertise: Whether it’s one accent wall or your entire interior, our teams manage complex projects with ease, balancing speed and care.

Our cabinet painting services can dramatically refresh the look of older built-ins, vanities, and shelving units—saving you thousands compared to a full replacement. * Detailed Trim Work: Baseboards, chair rails, crown molding, and mantels receive the same attention as your walls. With precise cutting, premium products, and careful masking, we help your woodwork pop, adding charm and value to every room. * Unique Finishes: From distressed looks to sleek, modern tones, we can match existing colors or create something truly custom.
Drywall Repair & Surface Prep
A perfect paint job requires a perfect surface. Our team can:
* Patch and smooth holes from old nails, cracks, or settling. * Repair dents, water damage, or rough finishes on existing drywall and plaster. * Replace small sections of drywall if structural repairs are needed. * Skim coat walls to level out texture, block stains, and ensure an ideal painting surface. * Stain blocking and spot priming to prevent bleed-through from previous finishes or moisture.
Kitchen & Bathroom Painting
* Moisture-Resistant Coatings: Bathrooms and kitchens see plenty of humidity, splashes, and temperature swings. We select paints designed to shrug off water, resist mildew, and hold up to frequent cleaning. * Color Advice for Tough Spaces: Our team offers tips for making small kitchens feel brighter, choosing non-yellowing whites for bathrooms, and coordinating with tile, stone, or cabinetry.
Apartment, Condo & Rental Unit Painting
Fagan Painting LLC works with property managers and landlords as well as homeowners. We provide:
* Fast turnover for rentals: Quick, efficient scheduling and cleanup help you prep units for the next tenant without delay. * Common area painting: Entrances, hallways, and shared spaces receive the same detail and professionalism as private homes.
Color Consultation
Choosing the right colors can feel overwhelming. Our experts guide you through palettes that suit New Kensington’s character, recommend on-trend or timeless combos, discuss how different lighting affects paint, and even provide large-format samples for peace of mind before you commit.
* Designer Input Available: For those opting for a fully guided process, we connect you with design pros who blend color theory, your style, and current trends.
Our Interior Painting Process
Transparency builds trust. We want you to feel confident, relaxed, and excited—not stressed—at every stage of your project. From the first call to the last sweep of the brush, here’s what the Fagan interior process looks like:
1. Free In-Home Estimate: We visit your home to take careful measurements, assess surfaces, and discuss your vision. We note any repairs, special requests, and work with you on budget and timing. Your detailed estimate lays out all services, options, and an exact timeline. 2. Color Guidance & Planning: Need help choosing shades? We provide expert recommendations, sample swatches, and local color trends to help you find the perfect palette. 3. Furniture Covering & Room Protection: Before painting starts, all furnishings are moved or covered with plastic, and all flooring is protected by drop cloths and specialty rugs. This ensures your belongings stay safe and dust-free throughout. 4. Surface Preparation: We fill cracks, repair holes, sand surfaces, and prime as needed to create a base for rich, even paint application. If old wallpaper needs removal or surfaces need cleaning, we provide those services too. 5. Painting: Walls, Ceilings, Trim: Our skilled house painters use high-end brushes, rollers, and airless sprayers to guarantee smooth, even coats without brush marks or inconsistent coloring. We always ventilate spaces appropriately and use low-odor paints for your comfort. 6. Final Touches & Quality Check: On completion, we check all surfaces under strong “inspection” lighting, touch up any thin or missed spots, and address small concerns immediately, so you’re happy from the get-go. 7. Thorough Clean-Up: After the painting is done, we vacuum and mop floors, put furniture back in place, remove all protective material, and dispose of debris. Many clients have remarked that their homes are cleaner after our service than before\! 8. Walkthrough With the Homeowner: No job is finished until you’re delighted. Your project manager (often the crew leader you’ve met throughout) walks you through every room and answers any final questions. Any issues? We remedy them on the spot or schedule a quick follow-up.
Our commitment: We make every painting project as transparent, convenient, and low-stress as possible.Local Expertise: Painting Homes in New Kensington

Interior Painting Pricing Guide
No two painting projects are exactly alike. Prices vary based on factors such as:
* The number and size of rooms/areas to be painted * Height and complexity of walls/ceilings (vaulted ceilings, crown molding, etc.) * Surface preparation needs (repairs, patching, priming) * Paint quality, brand, and finish selection * Color change (deep, bold colors may require extra coats) * Furniture and belongings requiring movement/protection
A rough estimate for most interior projects in the New Kensington area ranges from $X–$Y per room, or $X–$Y for larger, whole-house undertakings. For apartments, condos, or unique spaces requiring special care (historic homes, accent features, intricate moldings), we provide customized quotes.
The best way to determine your actual cost is through a free onsite estimate—which we always provide with no obligation.
