Other Services
Beyond standard painting, we offer specialized services to maintain and enhance your home's beauty and integrity.
At TCM Finishes, great results start well before a brush touches the wall. Since 2006, Chester County homeowners have trusted us not just to paint — but to handle the full range of prep, repair, and finishing work that makes a paint job last. Whether you need wallpaper installed, drywall repaired, a power wash before exterior painting, or a specialty finish that turns a room into something truly unique, we bring the same licensed, detail-oriented approach to every job.
Wallpaper Installation
Professional wallpaper installation is one of those jobs that looks easy until you try it — and then you realize how much skill goes into getting seams to disappear and patterns to align perfectly across 12-foot walls. TCM Finishes has been installing wallpaper for Chester County homeowners since 2006, including grasscloth, textured, and specialty papers that require extra care and experience to hang correctly. We also handle full removal of old wallpaper — including the stubborn multi-layer jobs — with proper surface repair and prep before new paper or paint goes on.
Power Washing
Before we paint any exterior surface in Chester County, we power wash it first — and that's not just because it looks cleaner. Proper power washing removes mold, mildew, algae, and built-up grime that cause paint to fail prematurely. We offer standalone power washing services for homeowners who want their siding, deck, patio, walkways, or driveway refreshed without a full paint job. We use eco-friendly, biodegradable cleaning solutions safe for plants, pets, and the landscaping around your home. Whether it's a pre-paint prep wash or a standalone service, we bring the same professional equipment and care to every job throughout West Chester, Downingtown, Exton, and all of Chester County.
Drywall Repair
Nobody notices a drywall repair done right — and that's exactly the point. Whether it's a doorknob hole in a bedroom, a crack running along a ceiling seam, or a larger section that took damage from water or an old fixture, TCM Finishes handles drywall repair throughout Chester County as part of our painting projects and as a standalone service. Texture matching is where most repairs give themselves away — getting a smooth finish to match a skip-trowel or orange-peel texture takes experience, and it's something we take seriously on every repair.
Specialty Finishes
Sometimes a room calls for something more than a standard two-coat paint job. TCM Finishes offers specialty decorative finishes on a project basis — including limewashing for that warm, organic Old World look that's become popular in Chester County dining rooms and entryways, high-gloss lacquering on cabinetry and trim for a dramatic mirror finish, and custom textured wall treatments for accent walls. These aren't services we push, but they're services we know how to do properly when a homeowner or designer asks for something beyond the ordinary.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our additional services in Chester County.
Both. On most interior painting projects, we identify and repair any drywall issues — nail pops, cracks, small holes — as part of our prep process. If you have more significant damage that needs attention before a larger paint job, we're happy to schedule the repair and painting together, or handle the drywall as a standalone visit if you're not ready to paint yet.
Power washing pricing depends on the square footage and surface type. A typical Chester County home exterior runs between $200–$400. Driveways, decks, and patios are priced separately based on size. We provide free, no-obligation estimates — call or text 610-883-0856 and we'll give you a straight number.
Yes — and we'd actually recommend it. We typically schedule the power wash a few days before painting to make sure the surface is fully dry before any primer or paint goes on. Bundling both services is common for our Chester County exterior painting clients, and it simplifies scheduling. Just let us know when you call for your estimate.
We do both. Wallpaper removal — especially older double-layer or paste-heavy jobs — is something a lot of homeowners underestimate. We strip it properly, repair any surface damage underneath, and prep the wall correctly before hanging new paper or painting over it. Trying to paper or paint over poorly removed wallpaper is one of the most common causes of a bad result.
All of these services are available throughout Chester County. We're based in Downingtown but regularly work in West Chester, Exton, Malvern, Chester Springs, Thorndale, Kennett Square, and surrounding areas. If you're not sure whether we cover your town, just call — the answer is almost certainly yes.
