The Paint That Goes on Your Walls
Benjamin Moore is the standard product on every interior project — Regal Select, Aura, ben, or a specialty product depending on the room and the finish you want. Higher-end paint hides better, blocks stains better, and resists scuffs and scrubbing far longer than budget alternatives. On the trim and doors, we use a paint built for hard-wearing surfaces. On ceilings, a true ceiling paint that lays down flat without flashing.
If you've got a color in mind, bring it to the walkthrough. If you're not sure yet, we can talk through palette options, sheens (flat through gloss), and where each one belongs in a room.
What Interior Painting Can Fix
Most homeowners book interior painting because something specific is bugging them. A few of the most common:
- Walls that look tired after years of family life — scuff marks, faded color, builder-grade beige.
- Trim that doesn't match anymore because a previous owner painted half of it and stopped.
- Yellowed or cracked ceilings that drag down a room no matter what's below them.
- Dated colors that don't fit your style anymore, especially in kitchens and primary bedrooms.
- A room that needs to feel bigger or brighter — the right color and sheen will do that without knocking down a single wall.
- Patchy DIY work from a project that started strong and ran out of steam.
Each one has a clear fix. We'll talk through what you actually need versus what's nice to have.

Why Homeowners Choose AJ Painting for Interior Work
AJ Painting is a veteran-owned local crew based in the Lake Sunapee region. Founder James Hannon spent years on job sites learning the craft before starting the company in 2020, and the same standards he brought home from the service shape how every job runs today: punctual, organized, accountable.
The crew is small on purpose — two or three painters per project, led by an experienced lead — so you see the same faces every day and the communication stays direct. Want the longer version? You can meet the owner on our About page.

Why Homeowners Pick AJ Painting
Painters can be hard to compare on paper. Here's the short version of what makes the difference once the work starts:
The same crew for the whole project — not a rotating cast.
A written warranty, not a verbal promise.
An owner who's actually on your job, not just on the marquee.
A clean site every evening, not a half-finished mess to live around.
Five Years of Workmanship Coverage
Every interior project comes with a 5-year workmanship warranty. If a covered issue shows up in that window — say, a corner that lifts or a seam that needs attention — get in touch and the team will take care of it. You'll have the written terms with your project paperwork. A premium interior finish should last, and we put that in writing.
