painting walls
Roller and brush
Painting walls is the task of applying paint to interior or exterior wall surfaces, whether for protection, decoration, or refreshing a space.
The phrase often stands in for routine home maintenance or renovation work generally: We spent the weekend painting walls and replacing fixtures.
It can also describe the monotonous, low-skill end of a profession: Any house painter can slap on a coat, but painting walls is the least of what a good contractor does.
