Questions

Fair Questions, Straight Answers

Do coastal homes really need different exterior paint?

Yes. Saltwater exposure and strong onshore winds wear finishes fast. We use high-quality, durable coatings selected for coastal conditions, over thorough prep — that combination is what makes the finish last.

What's your cabinet painting process?

Doors and hardware come off, surfaces are cleaned and sanded, then we apply a shellac-based primer and multiple coats of high-quality lacquer for a smooth, durable, factory-like finish. It's a fraction of the cost of replacing cabinetry.

Are you licensed and insured?

Fully licensed, insured, and OSHA-certified, and we're a PCA Accredited Contractor. We'll happily provide documentation before work begins.

How long will my project take?

It depends on size and complexity — most interiors take a few days. You'll get an estimated timeline with your free estimate, updates throughout, and on-time completion without cutting corners.

Do you handle commercial projects?

Yes — offices, retail, and more, with flexible scheduling (including nights and weekends) to minimize disruption to your business.

When's the best time to paint my exterior?

Dry months with moderate temperatures — spring and early fall are ideal here. Those calendars fill first, so if you're eyeing this season, book your estimate early.
