Project Description

This four-day stairwell painting in Southside Binghamton, NY was a custom interior house painting project for a returning client. Laura M, a respected local realtor, trusted us once again to handle the fine detail work in her beautifully updated home. Our Brushes Over Broome team, led by a skilled professional house painter, delivered a clean, polished finish in a challenging space.

Services Provided

  • Spraying new decorative board and batten with precision prep
  • Hand-painting stair railing and spindles in two colors
  • Painting stair risers and kickplates
  • Setup of a full spray booth in the stairwell for a controlled finish

Paints/Products Used

  • Fine Paints of Europe Eco Satin – Caviar (railing)

A rich, deep black with a luxurious satin sheen that elevates the handrail’s appearance. This high-end European formula offers outstanding smoothness, creating a dramatic visual contrast against the lighter tones in the space.

  • Benjamin Moore Regal Matte – Agreeable Gray (walls)

A timeless greige that balances warm and cool undertones. Its versatility brings a calming, modern sophistication to the stairwell, making the space feel both updated and cozy.

  • Centurion 1111 Primer

Used for board and batten base. A reliable, bonding primer that creates a smooth foundation for paint. It enhances adhesion and fills minor imperfections, ideal for freshly installed decorative woodwork.

  • Scuff X Satin

Durable topcoat used throughout, applied via spray and brush. A professional-grade coating designed for high-traffic areas. It resists scuffs, wear, and everyday abrasion while delivering a uniform satin finish across intricate stairwell features.

Scope of Work

  • Prime, fill, and spray finish on board and batten
  • Hand-paint railing with Fine Paints of Europe (Caviar) and Uni primer
  • Repaint stair spindles white after sanding
  • Scuff-sand and topcoat kickplates and risers

Before: A Blank Canvas with Great Potential

Before the transformation, the stairwell featured unfinished wood railings and spindles, with a warm natural oak tone dominating the space. The kickplates and risers were clean but plain, and the walls lacked visual depth. While the staircase had a beautiful structure, it needed color and contrast to elevate its presence. This clean and neutral starting point gave us the perfect foundation for a quality interior house painting update.

During: Bringing the Vision to Life

With the vision set, our house painter carefully set up a spray booth in the stairwell to begin the detailed work. We installed the custom board and batten, ensuring every angle aligned beautifully with the existing architecture. Each panel was primed, filled, and prepped to perfection. The railing was coated in primer and hand-painted with care, while spindles were taped off and prepped for their crisp white finish.

After: A Bold, Beautiful Finish

The final result speaks for itself. The decorative board and batten now look seamless against the freshly painted Agreeable Gray walls, providing depth and elegance. The handrail, finished in Caviar, adds a modern edge while the crisp white spindles and risers ground the look in classic charm.

With flawless lines, smooth finishes, and a perfect blend of tones, the stairwell feels elevated and cohesive from every angle. This space is no longer just a pass-through — it’s a design feature and a standout result of expert stairwell painting in Southside Binghamton, NY.

Details That Make the Difference

The stairwell was transformed into a refined focal point using a carefully controlled spray application. The hand-painted railing in Caviar black adds bold contrast against the crisp white spindles and Agreeable Gray walls. Every surface was cleaned, sanded, and primed for perfect adhesion by our experienced professional house painter.

Our client especially appreciated the attention to detail and professionalism shown during the job. Her feedback?

“Hi Nicole, Mike was fantastic, really happy with him and the job done. He was extremely polite and courteous.”

Why This Project Stands Out

From delicate trim lines to bold color choices, this project is a perfect example of expert stairwell painting in Southside Binghamton, NY.
