Another A+ Paint Job! Interior Painting for a Tinley Park School
Our Jondec Painting team is known for house painting, but did you know that we have full
commercial painting capabilities too? We love applying our same skills and standards, just on a larger scale.
In this case, we had the opportunity to refresh a local Tinley Park school before that bell rang for the first time. After the wild and rocky year our students have had, it felt good to provide them with a warm, colorful welcome.
Planning and Prepping
Every commercial painting project starts with carefully mapping out the scope and our approach. The schedule is also all-important, especially in a case like this. We’re used to working off-hours and on weekends, as needed, just to make sure that our painting doesn’t interfere with daily operations.
After planning the details, we got to work prepping the halls and surfaces. These initial steps lay the groundwork for an efficient painting process.
Take a Look At These Fresh Hallway Paint Colors!
Bright and vibrant, these colors are much more fun and inviting than the original white. We carried the palette right up the stairwell too, keeping that happy vibe going.
Just in case you’re interested in the more technical details, we used a product called
Ultra Spec Scuff-X from Benjamin Moore. It’s a high-performance latex coating, specifically designed for high-traffic commercial spaces. Perfect for a school, right? Repeated cleaning and scrubbing is no issue, and it has scuff-resistant properties to help maintain the integrity of that fresh eggshell finish.

Let's Talk Paint!
Your kitchen cabinets take up a huge amount of visual space. And you know what that means? It means a fresh coat of paint can do more than just make them look brand new. It can transform your kitchen’s style and save you thousands compared to a full remodel. But here’s the catch: painted cabinets can be stunning…or they can be a DIY disaster. Before you grab a paintbrush and start slapping on color, there are a few golden rules you’ll want to follow. Here’s our list of do’s and don’ts to keep your cabinets looking polished instead of patchy. The Cabinet Painting Do’s Do Clean Thoroughly: Grease, dust, and kitchen grime are sneaky. If you don’t clean your cabinets properly before painting, all that gunk will show through the new paint, or worse, prevent it from sticking. A little elbow grease goes a long way. Do Remove the Doors and Hardware: It’s tempting to cut corners, but trust us: painting around hinges and handles never looks neat. Take the doors off, label them, and store hardware in a baggie so you don’t end up with the world’s hardest jigsaw puzzle later. Do Sand (Yes, Really): Sanding is the unglamorous step nobody wants to do, but it’s the secret to a smooth, professional finish. Even if your cabinets don’t look glossy, a light sanding helps paint adhere and prevents chipping. Do Use the Right Paint: Cabinets need durable paint that can handle daily wear. Satin, semi-gloss, or specialty cabinet paints are designed for the job. Flat wall paint? Not invited to this party. Do Test a Sample First: Colors can look completely different under your kitchen lighting than they do on a tiny paint chip at the store. Paint a test section before committing to “soft sage” that mysteriously turns into “swamp green” under your pendant lights.
