SSKM Construction Corp paints interiors in New Paltz and across the Hudson Valley with the prep that makes a finish last: holes patched, trim caulked, surfaces sanded and primed, and floors and furniture fully covered. Most rooms are prepped and painted in a day or two, finished in two coats with clean cut-in lines.
- Prep? Patched, caulked, sanded, and primed before any color goes on.
- Coats? Typically two finish coats for full, even coverage.
- Timeline? Most rooms done in a day or two.
A paint job is only as good as the prep underneath it, the patching and caulking nobody sees but everybody notices when it is skipped. SSKM paints Hudson Valley interiors with careful prep, crisp lines, and full protection of your floors and furniture.

Real Reviews
Rated 5.0 stars by Hudson Valley homeowners
The roof was completely done and cleaned up in 2 days, his guys had even cleaned out my gutters.
SSKM Construction did an outstanding job replacing the sheathing and removing and replacing the existing siding on my home.
It has been a pleasure and honor to work with Luis and his crew for the past 5 years.
Luis and his crew did a great job swapping out two nasty pull-out windows in my basement.
Those reviews are real, and they are on Google. If you would like to be the next one, the estimate costs nothing.
Local Conditions
What good interior painting looks like in New Paltz
- Nail holes, dings, and cracks patched and sanded before a single coat goes on
- Trim and edges caulked so lines stay crisp instead of showing gaps months later
- Older plaster or drywall on New Paltz's 17th-century stone houses beside a college town's newer construction, under the Shawangunks that needs extra prep before paint will hold evenly
- Full protection of floors, trim, and furniture, not just a plastic sheet tossed over the middle of the room
- Two finish coats for even color, not a single thin coat that shows roller marks
About New Paltz, Ulster County
New Paltz sits in Ulster County on the eastern shore of the Wallkill River, which flows north into the Rondout Creek and eventually the Hudson, beneath the Shawangunk Ridge. Founded in 1678 by French Huguenot settlers, the village preserves the stone houses of Historic Huguenot Street, among the oldest surviving European-built stone houses in North America. It is also home to SUNY New Paltz, founded in 1828, the New Paltz Downtown Historic District, and the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail on a former rail corridor. Nearby are the Mohonk Preserve, Minnewaska State Park, and the Mohonk Mountain House in the Shawangunks. That mountain-valley setting brings meaningful snow and ice, so the village's mix of very old and newer homes needs work that can take the weather.

How we approach interior painting in New Paltz
The difference between a paint job that looks good on day one and one that still looks good a year later is almost entirely in the prep. In New Paltz homes, that means patching nail holes and dings, sanding rough spots smooth, caulking the gaps at trim and ceiling lines, and priming anywhere the color is changing dramatically or the surface is bare. Skipping any of that step is how you end up with cracks reappearing through fresh paint within months.
We fully cover floors and furniture before we open a can, and where furniture needs to move, we move it, rather than painting around it and leaving a visible line later. Most rooms in New Paltz are prepped and painted in a day or two, finished in two coats with cut-in lines you cannot see from across the room. If you are unsure on color or sheen, we will talk you through how a given color reads in your home's light before you commit.

Yes. We protect and, where needed, move furniture, and fully cover floors and fixtures before any painting starts.

Typically two finish coats over primed or previously-painted surfaces; deep color changes or bare surfaces may need primer plus two coats.

Always. Nail holes, dings, and cracks get patched and sanded, and gaps get caulked, as part of prep.

We can guide you on sheens and how colors read in your light; the final color choice is yours.
How long does it take to paint a room in a New Paltz home?
Most rooms are prepped and painted in a day or two depending on size, repairs, and the number of colors.
We pull the permits our work needs and deal with the inspections. If you want to check the requirements yourself, New Paltz permits and inspections are handled by the town, and current requirements are listed on the Town of New Paltz official site.
