Interior Painting in Shelton, CT | Black Staircase & Stained Wood Beams
This interior painting project in Shelton, Connecticut, brought together fresh painted surfaces, rich wood details, and a striking satin-black staircase. Fairfield Pro Painting worked across the home’s open living spaces, emphasizing careful preparation and complementary finishes that preserve the character of its exposed ceiling beams.
A Complete Interior Refresh in Shelton, CT
Our work included the ceilings, walls, stair railings, and wood beams. The project combines flat white ceilings with matte beige walls, giving the living and dining areas a soft, neutral backdrop. Dark satin-black stair rails introduce a contemporary contrast, while warm-stained beams remain a focal point of the vaulted ceiling.
Satin Black Staircase Painting with Benjamin Moore Regal
We refinished the staircase railings in black satin using Benjamin Moore Regal. The new darker finish provides definition around the open stairwell and works with the room’s natural wood flooring and stone fireplace.
Custom Wood Beam Staining: Golden Oak and Early American
The exposed ceiling beams were finished with a custom blend of Golden Oak and Early American stain colors, followed by satin polyurethane. The warm tone brings out the wood grain without covering the beams with opaque paint, creating a natural contrast against the white ceiling.
Ceilings, Walls and Exterior Front Door
- Ceilings: flat white finish.
- Walls: matte beige finish.
- Staircase and railings: Benjamin Moore Regal satin black.
- Wood ceiling beams: mixed Golden Oak and Early American stain, protected with satin polyurethane.
- Exterior front door: Mahogany Brown, low-luster finish.
The exterior front door was also refinished in a low-luster Mahogany Brown finish, tying the home’s entry into the broader project.
