Hawaii Residential Painting

Interior painting single rooms or entire homes is just one of Adam’s specialties. Professional interior painting is no small task, and choosing the paint color and type that will best suit your needs is an important first step.

Whether you need the exterior of your home freshly painted or re-painted, Adam can get it done for you. Because of his experience with power-washing and paint maintenance, Adam understands how to paint exterior walls, roofs, and siding for large and small homes.

Re-painting doors, windows, cabinets, trim, decks, and furniture is a cost-effective way to revitalize an entire room or house without re-painting the whole room. Broke Slipper Paint will re-varnish and re-paint doors, windows, furniture and decks to not only increase the aesthetic value of your items but preserve them even longer against Hawaii humidity and exposure.This is the text area for this paragraph.

Broke Slipper will power-wash decks, driveways, walkways, exterior walls, and pretty much anything else you need. Some of the serious benefits of consistent power-washing services include increased home value, improved curb appeal, prevention of expensive repairs, cleanliness, and radical decreases in airborne contaminates.

A repainted roof is a long-lasting roof. The hot Hawaiian sun, salt air, and heavy rains all contribute to the deterioration of your roof over time. A fresh coat of paint combined with routine power-washing services will ensure you and your ohana have a long-lasting roof over your heads for years to come.

Broke Slipper Painting is proud to offer paint maintenance services alongside a year-long guarantee of quality on every project. When you hire Broke Slipper Painting for any exterior house painting services, your first paint maintenance service is complimentary.

Hawaii Home Painting Tips

It’s important to understand the degree of traffic any room of the house will be experiencing, and whether you’re looking to paint a high-traffic area such as a living room or kitchen, versus a guest bathroom that’s rarely used, influences the types of paint you’ll need.


Basic rules of thumb include knowing which type of paint is already on the interior and exterior before starting, such as whether it’s a latex, oil, or water-based paint. Next, you’ll want to decide on the best choice of paint finish.


A flat finish paint is ideal for ceilings and low-traffic interior walls. Because it’s the most prone to marks, you don’t want to use a flat finish for high-traffic areas where children might scribble on the walls or stains are likely to occur. The most common choice for low-traffic rooms that you still want to have a bit of shine is an eggshell finish. This finish is great as a wall paint color, but still not as easy to clean.


The best choices for higher-traffic wall paint colors are satin finish, semi-gloss, and high-gloss finishes. Satin finish is one of the most popular choices because it combines easier cleaning with a higher level of shine than eggshell or flat finishes. Satin finish is commonly used for bedroom, dining rooms, interior walls, and hallways.

Improve and Protect Your Home with Painting Services

Just as with interior paint, there is a wide range of house paint colors, exterior paint types, and finishes to choose from.


One of the most important things to consider with exterior house paint is the weather quality and conditions of your area. A great house paint for the Windward side might not be great for the hotter and dustier West side of the island, while some colors are best suited to more humid areas of Oahu like Nuuanu and Manoa.


Exterior painting, no matter your location or home, can significantly increase the property value and beauty of your home. Newly painted siding can save you tons of money you might have spent on replacing siding, while consistent paint maintenance is crucial for protecting your investment and making the paint last significantly longer.

The Benefits of Consistent Power-Washing

Consistent pressure washing is shown to add a potential $10,000 to $15,000 to the sales price of your home, according to the National Association of Realtors. When you compare that to the average cost of a power-washing a house, we think the ROI is pretty much a no-brainer!


If you’re planning to sell your house, or simply want to keep your house looking it’s best for the most amount of time possible, consistent power washing (every 6 months, depending on your home’s location) is necessary. Even in the best of conditions, exterior paint needs bi-annual or annual power-washing to maintain its beauty. Power-washing driveways, walkways, concrete and steps is also important for safety, as moldy walkways can present a serious safety risk to your family, renters, visitors, and potential buyers.

Protect Your Home for the Long Haul

Mold is a common problem in the humid climates of Oahu and generally in Hawaii. Prevent dangerous contamination of the air around your home and save yourself money on rot-related repairs with consistent power-washing and paint maintenance today.


You have weekly, monthly, or maybe even bi-annual servicing for your pool, yard, cars, appliances, technologies, and many other things in life. Repeated servicing and maintenance for your home’s paint should be no different. Paint maintenance is an often overlooked aspect of painting services. It’s often thought that once the house is painted, it can be left alone for 1, 5, or even 20 years. But you wouldn’t go 20 years without changing your oil, just as you shouldn’t go 20 years without paint maintenance.
