Why is interior painting different in North Coastal San Diego?

Production homes in Carlsbad and Oceanside were shot with flat contractor paint on every surface, including high-traffic hallways and kitchens — a finish that marks easily and can't be wiped. Most of our interior paint jobs here involve upgrading to eggshell or satin throughout so the walls hold up to daily life.
