✅ Interior Painting & Finish Carpentry — Long Island & NYC

At MJG Contracting Corp., every exceptional paint job begins with great preparation. Whether it’s walls, ceilings, doors, or decorative panels—we focus extensively on taping, spackling, sanding, and caulking for an impeccable, long-lasting finish.


🎯 Why Surface Prep Makes All the Difference

Skimping on prep work leads to peeling paint, uneven finishes, and frequent touch-ups. Proper cleaning, patching, and priming ensures paint bonds securely and lasts longer—delivering consistency and pristine results


🔧 The MJG Painting Process

  1. Cleaning & Surface Repair
    Dust, debris, and surface contaminants are removed. Spackling and sanding create a perfectly smooth base.

  2. Caulking & Nail-Filling
    Trim details like chair rails, doors, and casing receive attention—nail holes are filled and seams caulked for crisp, precise lines.

  3. Level-5 Drywall Finish (as needed)
    In light-heavy lit areas, we use Level 5 finishing to eliminate joint lines—even under strong light—ensuring flawless results.

  4. Priming
    We use high-quality primers (like Benjamin Moore Fresh Start or Eco Spec) especially on new drywall, bare wood, or dramatic color changes to boost adhesion, block stains, and enhance durability.

  5. Painting
    Premium paint brands such as Benjamin Moore provide deep color, low odor, and excellent finish uniformity—often requiring fewer coats than lower-quality alternatives.

  6. Protected Execution
    Furniture and flooring are protected using heavy-duty drop cloths and painter’s tape to prevent overspray and damage.
