Why homeowners and businesses trust Revolve

  • Protection before product

    Floors papered or dropped, furniture moved and wrapped, fixtures and hardware removed rather than taped around. Your house shouldn't need a second cleaning crew after we leave.

  • Surfaces made right first

    Nail pops, cracked corner bead, settling cracks, and old water stains get repaired, sealed, and texture-matched before paint — otherwise they telegraph straight through the new finish.

  • Sheens chosen for the room

    Flat hides on ceilings, scrubbable matte or eggshell on living walls, satin or semi-gloss on trim and baths. The right sheen is why a hallway still looks good after three years of kids.

What we offer

  • Whole-Home Repaints

    Every room, ceiling, and trim run on a single schedule and a single color plan.

  • Walls & Ceilings

    Two-coat coverage over primer where needed, cut lines that stay crisp against trim and corners.

  • Trim, Doors & Cabinets

    Brushed or sprayed finishes on baseboard, casing, crown, stair parts, and interior doors.

  • Drywall Repair & Texture Matching

    Patches, cracks, and water damage repaired and blended into knockdown, orange peel, or smooth finishes.

  • Basements & Garages

    Masonry primers, block filler, and floor coatings for finished basements and garage interiors.

  • Popcorn Ceiling Removal

    Textured ceilings scraped, skimmed, and refinished smooth with full containment.

A Good Interior Paint Job Should Be Boring

The mark of a professional interior crew is that you barely notice they were there, except that the house looks better. Floors covered before anything opens. Furniture moved and wrapped, not shoved and hoped for. Switch plates, outlet covers, register grilles, and door hardware removed rather than taped around — taping around hardware is what produces those thick ridges of paint you can feel with a fingernail.

Cut lines should be crisp against ceilings, trim, and corners without a laser-straight tape line that peels the ceiling paint when it comes off. Coverage should be genuinely two coats, not one heavy coat that looks fine until the light hits it in the afternoon. And the crew should clean up at the end of every day, because you still live there while the work is happening.

Repairs and Prep That Determine the Finish Quality

Nail pops, hairline settling cracks at door corners, dented corner bead, and old water stains all telegraph straight through fresh paint if they are not addressed first. Nail pops get re-set and re-fastened, not just filled. Cracks get taped, not just spackled, or they will reopen in a season. Water stains get sealed with a stain-blocking primer, because a water stain will bleed through three coats of latex without one.

Texture matching is the part homeowners notice most. A knockdown or orange-peel wall with a smooth patch on it looks worse than the original damage. We match the surrounding texture and feather the repair so it disappears under the finish coat.

Glossy existing trim and previously enameled surfaces get scuff-sanded and, where needed, bond-primed. Skipping that step is how new trim paint ends up peeling off in sheets when someone bumps a baseboard with a vacuum.

Choosing Sheens and Colors for Rooms You Actually Live In

Sheen does more work than color does. Flat and matte hide surface imperfection beautifully — ideal for ceilings and for older plaster walls — but traditional flats are hard to clean. Modern scrubbable mattes and eggshells give you most of that hiding power with washability, and they are what we recommend for most living areas. Satin and semi-gloss belong on trim, doors, and in bathrooms and laundry rooms where moisture and cleaning are constant.

On color: the same chip reads completely differently in a north-facing room, under warm LED bulbs, and against your flooring. We recommend sampling on the actual wall and looking at it morning and evening before committing. For whole-home repaints, we help build a palette with consistent trim and ceiling colors so rooms flow instead of competing.

Low- and zero-VOC products have gotten genuinely good, and they are what we default to for occupied homes — meaningfully less odor and faster re-occupancy, which matters when there are kids, pets, or anyone sensitive in the house.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How much does it cost to paint one room?
In the St. Louis area, a typical bedroom or office runs $400 to $900 for walls, and $600 to $1,300 including ceiling and trim. Larger rooms, high ceilings, extensive drywall repair, and dark-to-light color changes that require an extra coat push toward the top of the range.
2. Do I need to move out while you paint?
No. We sequence room by room and use low-VOC products so you can stay in the house. Most people close off the active area and keep living normally. If the whole main floor is being done at once, some homeowners choose to be out for a couple of days — that is a preference, not a requirement.
3. How many coats of paint do you apply?
Two finish coats is our standard, plus primer wherever it is needed — bare drywall, patches, stains, glossy surfaces, or dramatic color changes. Your estimate states the coat count in writing. Be cautious of quotes that do not, because 'one coat over what is there' is a very different job at a very similar-looking price.
4. Can you repair drywall and match the texture?
Yes. We repair nail pops, cracks, holes, corner bead damage, and water-damaged drywall, then match knockdown, orange peel, or smooth finishes so the repair disappears under paint. Texture matching is a skill, and a poorly matched patch is more visible than the damage was.
5. What sheen should I use in a hallway or kids' room?
A scrubbable matte or eggshell. It hides wall imperfections far better than satin while still cleaning up when someone runs a bike handlebar down the wall. Save semi-gloss for trim, doors, and bathrooms.
6. Can you remove popcorn ceilings?
Yes. We contain the area, scrape the texture, skim and sand to a smooth finish, prime, and paint. Note that homes built before roughly 1980 may have asbestos-containing ceiling texture, which requires testing and licensed abatement before removal — we will tell you if testing is warranted rather than scraping first and asking later.
