How it works

Tape and sand

We mask adjacent walls, floor, and any hardware, then lightly sand the casing to give the new paint something to grip.

Fill and prime

We fill any damage, apply primer to bare spots, and let it dry before the finish coat.

Brush finish coats

We apply two coats of trim paint with a quality angled brush, working along the profile of the casing for a smooth, chip-free result.

We can help

Problems we fix

Paint chipping at the corner edges of casings where they get frequent contact from opening doors
Brush marks on flat casing profiles that needed thinning or better technique to flow out
Paint bleeding onto the adjacent wall because tape wasn't pressed down at the edge

Door Casing Painting in Charleston — FAQ

Should door casings match the baseboard color?

In most traditional interiors, door casings, baseboards, and window trim are all painted the same color, often white or off-white. Matching them gives the room a cohesive, finished look.

Can you paint just the casings without painting the door itself?

Absolutely. Casings and doors are separate surfaces and can be done independently. If only the casings are scuffed, that's all we need to touch.

What sheen is best for door casings?

Semi-gloss is the standard choice for all woodwork because it's durable, easy to wipe clean, and the slight gloss reads as deliberate against flat walls. Satin works well in spaces where you want a subtler look.

Local context

Door Casing Painting across Charleston

Charleston's humid subtropical climate, salt air and active storm season are tough on homes — swollen doors, rusting hardware, mildew-prone caulk and storm-loosened trim are all common. Downtown's historic houses add original plaster walls and tight, detailed millwork, while West Ashley and the islands bring newer builds with their own quirks. Our pros are comfortable with both.
