Interior Painting in Covington, KY for Older Homes

Covington’s median home was built in 1947, and 44% of its houses are older than 1940. Inside, that means plaster walls, tall baseboards and many layers of old paint. Queen City Painting and Decorating paints these interiors with the prep those rooms need.

We Know Covington

From the rowhouses around MainStrasse Village to the streets near Devou Park, much of Covington was built before drywall. Plaster moves with the seasons and with the Ohio River humidity, so a good interior job starts with the walls, then the color.

  • Plaster cracks repaired and primed before any finish coat
  • Original trim and built-ins sanded and painted, not replaced
  • Rooms sequenced so you can stay home during the work
  • Cleanup and a progress update at the end of each day
  • Free color consultation for rooms with tall ceilings and older windows

Questions About Interior Painting in Covington?

Do you paint plaster walls in older Covington homes?

Yes, and most of the work is in the prep. We open up and fill cracks, secure or repair loose areas, and prime the repairs so the finish coat looks even across the whole wall.

Yes. Loose and flaking layers are scraped and sanded back to a sound surface, then primed. Trim in good shape only needs cleaning, sanding and fresh coats.

Yes. Our service area covers Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky, including Covington and Newport, just across the river from our Cincinnati base.

Eggshell or matte usually suits plaster, because higher sheens show every ripple in an older surface. Trim and doors take a tougher satin or semi-gloss so they stand up to hands and cleaning.

The condition of the walls comes first, along with how much repair they need. Then ceiling height, trim and the number of rooms. We don’t publish prices, and your free written estimate arrives within 24 hours.
