The Short Hills Painters Who Actually Do the Prep
Buying a house, selling a house, or just done living with beige. Those are the calls we get most. We paint interiors, exteriors, cabinets and trim throughout Short Hills, and we repair the drywall and patch the surfaces that need it first, so the new paint goes on something worth painting.
Paint is only as good as the surface under it, so that’s where we spend our effort. Holes filled, cracks caulked, glossy surfaces sanded, bare wood primed. Then the finish coats go on with premium paint. You’ll see every one of those steps listed in your quote before we start.

Interior, Exterior & Cabinet Painting in Short Hills
Interior rooms, exteriors, cabinets, decks, fences and drywall repair.
Walls, Ceilings & Trim
Walls, ceilings, trim and doors. We cover floors and furniture, patch holes, sand, caulk the gaps and cut clean lines before rolling on premium Benjamin Moore or Sherwin-Williams paint. The color choices are yours. We leave the room clean and ready to use.
Interior painting →Exterior Painting
A full exterior repaint protects the house and changes how it looks from the street. We power wash, scrape, sand, caulk and prime, then paint siding and trim in the colors you choose. When we’re done, we clean up the site and walk your whole Short Hills house with you.
Exterior painting →Cabinet Painting & Refinishing
Dated oak or scratched white cabinets? Cabinet painting gives your kitchen or bathroom a new look while you keep the layout you have. Everything is cleaned, sanded, primed and painted with care, and the countertops, floors and appliances stay protected the whole time.
More on cabinet painting →Deck Staining, Fence Staining & Drywall Repair
These are the jobs Short Hills homeowners put off. We stain decks and fences so the wood looks cared for again, and we repair drywall cracks, holes and water-stained patches inside the house. Both are often added to a bigger painting job, and both get the same careful prep.

How to Tell a Good Painter from a Bad One
Start with the basics. Any painter working on your Short Hills house in New Jersey should have a Home Improvement Contractor registration number and liability insurance, and they should show you both without hesitation. Next, compare quotes on scope, not just price. One quote might include scraping, caulking and priming while another skips it and only looks lower. Ask how they protect floors, furniture and plants. Ask who handles cleanup. And ask what their warranty covers and whether you get it in writing.
Every one of those points is part of how Nail Force paints a house. Prep is listed, paint is named, the site stays clean, and the warranty is written and transferable. Getting quotes for house painting? Make sure one of them is ours. Call (973) 713-1053.
Short Hills Painting FAQ
Honest answers before you hire a painter.
Your price is set by the work, not a formula. A room with sound drywall and one color is a different job from a stairwell with cracked walls, stained ceilings and dark paint going light. Our free estimate breaks it down line by line, so you can see what each part covers and decide what you want done.
Yes. Drop cloths, tape, paint chips and debris all leave with us, and we do a final walkthrough with you before we call the job done. You should get your home back clean and ready to use, not with a list of chores waiting for you.
A full repaint is the right call once the finish is failing in more than a few places. Signs to watch for: flaking on several sides, bare gray wood on sills and trim, paint that rubs off like chalk, or a faded color you can’t match anymore. If none of that is going on, a targeted repair may be all you need.
There’s no charge for it. A free estimate is the only way we can give you a price we’ll stand behind, because every surface is different. We’ll look closely, ask what you want done, and send an itemized written quote with the prep, repairs and paint spelled out.
Every surface gets cleaned, repaired and primed where needed before we paint it. On siding and trim, we wash off dirt and mildew, scrape anything loose and feather the edges so they don’t telegraph through. Inside, we fill nail holes and dents, sand them flat and spot-prime. Only then does the color go on.
Financing is an option. Qualified homeowners in Short Hills can use our financing partner for a painting project, big or small. It’s a good fit when the exterior is failing and waiting would mean more repair work later. Check our financing page for details, or bring it up when we come out.
Yes, you get a written workmanship warranty from Nail Force on every paint job in Short Hills. The terms are spelled out on paper, not promised over a handshake, and the warranty is transferable if you sell. We’ll go over exactly what it covers before you sign anything.
Call a few painters, then compare how they show up, how they quote and what they put in writing. The right one comes to the house, points out problems, itemizes the job and offers a written warranty. Nail Force does all four, and we’re five-star rated on Google. Add us to your list at (973) 713-1053.
Yes. We paint and refinish kitchen and bathroom cabinets, including doors, drawer fronts and the cabinet boxes. The key is prep: cleaning off grease, sanding so the primer bonds, then smooth finish coats. It’s a big change to a Short Hills kitchen without replacing the cabinets. See our cabinet painting page.
We do. Any home built before 1978 gets EPA RRP lead-safe practices during scraping and sanding, so old paint is contained, collected and hauled away properly. Newer homes get the same careful cleanup. Call (973) 713-1053 and let us know when your house was built.
