Before and after

Most of the work happens before the color goes on

Drag the line across the picture, or tab to it and use the arrow keys. The left side is the house as we found it.

Living room, 1920s bungalow in Waldo. About thirty nail holes filled, a ceiling water stain sealed with stain-blocking primer, cracked caulk cut out and redone. Two coats of deep teal on the walls, white on the trim and ceiling. Lead-safe setup, since the house predates 1978.
Front of a 1950s ranch in Raytown. Loose paint scraped back to a sound edge, bare wood primed, every joint recaulked. Two coats of slate blue on the lap siding, white trim, deep teal shutters and a red front door.

How estimates work

From your request to a price on paper

  1. Send the request

    Use the estimate form or call. We answer the same business day and set a time to come look.

  2. Walk-through at your house

    About 45 minutes. We measure, look at every surface, ask when the house was built and brush out test patches of your colors if you want them.

  3. Written estimate in 2 business days

    Each room or surface on its own line, with the prep, the paint and sheen, labor and materials, a start date and the payment schedule.

  4. Paint, then a final walk-through

    You walk the finished job with the crew lead before the last drop cloth comes up. The balance is due after you sign off.
