Fine Finish Millwork & Doors in Schwenksville, PA

Brushed high-gloss and satin enamels on doors, built-ins, trim and window sash, plus stain and marine varnish on wood entry doors, from a Fine Paints of Europe certified painter. Serving Montgomery, Bucks and Chester Counties.

Fine Finish Millwork & Doors

Brushed gloss, done the old way, on the woodwork you touch every day.

Doors, built-ins and trim are where a finish gets seen up close and handled daily. They are also where Mitch's work has gone furthest. He is a Fine Paints of Europe certified painter and brushes their Hollandlac, a Dutch alkyd enamel that levels into a deep, hard gloss, along with their water-based Eco line.

The gloss is only as good as what is under it. In Mitch's words: "There's insane levels to gloss & in my opinion it's all what lies beneath the paint." That means oil or universal primers, sanding between coats, and brushes built for these coatings.

Wood doors get the same care. A freshly installed mahogany entry door was stained a custom color and finished in place with more than six coats of Marine Yacht Varnish, weather strip and all.

“We had such a great experience with MK Custom Finishes. Mitch is one of the most genuinely nice and professional contractors that I have ever hired. MK Custom Finishes made sure to cut no corners, protected our property during the painting of our custom built in, wasted no time, and provided top notch quality service. The built in looks amazing. Can’t wait to have him back to refinish our kitchen cabinets. 10/10 recommend for any painting projects.”

“We had a very positive experience working with Mitch and his team and would highly recommend them. They painted our foyer and 4 other rooms, as well as the foyer balusters. We were so impressed by their attention to detail and keen focus on keeping things clean. Their work on trim, including painting some quarter round in a number of rooms, was meticulous. It is so clear that Mitch and team take a great deal of pride not only in their work, but also ensuring a ...”

Questions

Good to know.

Insured, Army veteran owned, and a Fine Paints of Europe certified painter.

What is Hollandlac?

Hollandlac is Fine Paints of Europe's alkyd enamel, made in Holland. Brushed correctly over the right primer, it levels out into a deep, durable gloss that is hard to get with standard trim paint.

Can you refinish a door without taking it off?

Often, yes. The mahogany entry door on this page was stained and varnished in place, with the weather strip already installed.
