Interior Bathroom Paint Case Study
Jack & Barbara Thompson – Lexington, SC**
Project Overview
Jack and Barbara Thompson, longtime residents of Lexington, SC, reached out to Space Transformerz to refresh their primary bathroom. The walls had an older, dull paint color that had lost its brightness over the years. The Thompsons wanted a cleaner, more modern look that would make the space feel brighter, fresher, and more enjoyable to use every day.
They weren’t looking for a remodel — just the impact that a professional, well-executed interior bathroom repaint can bring.
Client Goals
The homeowners had three clear goals:
-
Brighten the bathroom and replace the worn, outdated wall color.
-
Create a clean, calming atmosphere that matched their updated fixtures and flooring.
-
Ensure a moisture-resistant, durable finish built for bathrooms and high-humidity areas.
Our Assessment
During the walkthrough, our team identified several issues:
-
Faded and uneven wall color
-
Minor surface blemishes and small nail holes
-
Light moisture wear common in older bathrooms
-
Existing trim needing a fresh coat for a complete finish
We recommended a modern, neutral color palette and a premium bathroom-rated paint to ensure long-term durability.
Our Solution
1. Color Consultation
We helped Jack and Barbara choose a soft, elegant neutral tone that worked with the natural light and their existing vanity and tile. A satin finish was selected for its wipeability, durability, and moisture resistance — ideal for bathrooms.
2. Surface Prep
Proper prep work was performed to ensure a flawless final look:
-
Filled nail holes and hairline cracks
-
Sanded uneven areas
-
Cleaned walls to ensure proper adhesion
-
Caulked gaps where needed
-
Protected all fixtures, tile, trim, and flooring
3. Premium Bathroom Paint Application
We applied high-quality, mold-resistant interior paint designed specifically for high-humidity environments. Two coats were used for full, even coverage.
4. Trim Refresh
To complete the transformation, we updated the trim with a fresh semi-gloss finish, giving the entire room a clean, cohesive new feel.
The Results
The final space delivered exactly what the Thompsons wanted:
-
A clean, modern, brighter bathroom
-
A noticeably fresher atmosphere
-
Perfectly smooth walls with no more visible blemishes
-
Durable, moisture-resistant paint built to last
-
A cohesive color palette that tied the entire room together
Jack and Barbara were thrilled with how quickly the space transformed — proving that a fresh coat of paint can completely revive a bathroom without the cost of a remodel.
Client Feedback
“We can’t believe how much better our bathroom looks. The color is perfect and the whole space feels new again. The crew was professional, clean, and the results are beautiful. We’re already planning our next project with Space Transformerz.”

Bathroom Painting FAQs
How long does a bathroom painting project like this usually take?
Most standard bathroom repainting projects take one day, including prep, painting, and cleanup. Larger bathrooms or those needing extensive repair may take slightly longer, but we always provide a clear timeline before beginning.
Do you use special paint for bathrooms?
Yes. Bathrooms require moisture-resistant, mildew-resistant paints that hold up against humidity. For the Thompson project, we used a premium, high-humidity interior paint designed for long-term durability.
Can you help us choose the right bathroom color?
Absolutely. We provide professional color guidance based on lighting, tile color, vanity tone, and overall style. Many Lexington homeowners prefer modern neutrals for a clean, spa-like feel.
Will you repair my walls before painting?
Yes. We repair nail holes, cracks, dents, minor moisture wear, and any imperfections before painting. Proper prep ensures a smooth, premium finish, especially in bathrooms where lighting reveals surface flaws.
Do you paint ceilings and trim in bathrooms?
We can. Many homeowners opt for a full refresh—including walls, ceiling, baseboards, door trim, and window trim—to give the space a complete, cohesive look. The Thompsons chose to update their trim for a cleaner overall finish.
How do you protect our fixtures and tile?
We cover and protect floors, countertops, showers, mirrors, and all fixtures with plastic, drop cloths, and painter’s tape. Bathrooms have tight spaces and sensitive surfaces, so we take extra care to ensure a clean, mess-free experience.
How long before we can use the bathroom again?
Most bathrooms can be used again the same evening, depending on humidity and ventilation. Paint dries quickly, but we recommend avoiding long, hot showers for the first 24 hours to ensure proper curing.
How much does bathroom painting cost in Lexington, SC?
Costs depend on room size, repairs needed, and paint type, but most bathroom painting projects in the Lexington and Columbia area range between $250–$650. We provide a clear, itemized estimate before starting.
Do you offer painting for other rooms as well?
Yes. Bathroom projects are just one part of our full service offerings. We provide interior painting, exterior painting, cabinet repainting, make-ready services, drywall repair, and commercial painting throughout Lexington and the Midlands.
