What our customers say
They were fast with their estimate and sent us a bid that included a breakout of each part of our project in an online form so we could customize the project and determine what areas of the house we wanted to start with and what that would cost… In 20 years of living in Bloomington, I have never had a better experience with a contractor.Joann A., Google review, June 2026
They were quick to give me an estimate and schedule the work. They completed the job in a timely manner and were friendly and easy to work with. The rooms look beautiful!Melissa B., Google review, October 2026
The quality of work was outstanding. The room I had painted was a very big job — 2 story, stairs, etc. Very happy with the results. When the painter left, he left the room cleaner than he found it.Kellan W., Google review, August 2025

What's included
Prep is where a great paint job starts
Careful prep is what gives you a smooth, even finish and paint that lasts longer. It also keeps your home clean while we work. That's why it comes standard on every job.
- Filling nail holes
- Pole-sanding every wall for a smooth finish
- Wiping down baseboards
- Protecting floors with plastic and rosin paper
- Drop cloths while we paint
Repairs like wall damage, tape fixes and texture matching are quoted separately after we see them at the walkthrough.
- Premium paint
- Sherwin-Williams SuperPaint, Duration or Emerald inside, and SuperPaint, Duration or Benjamin Moore Aura outside, depending on the option you choose.
- Furniture
- Standard: you move the furniture before we start. Premium and White Glove: we move all the furniture for you.
- Masking and protection
- Standard and Premium: floor protection stays in place until the job's done, and we'll uncover anything you need along the way. White Glove: removed and disposed of each evening and fully re-prepped each morning.
- Daily cleanup and a final walkthrough
- We clean up at the end of each day and walk the finished job with you.
- Insured
- Fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage.
Warranty
Workmanship warranty covering peeling, blistering and flaking: 2 years with Standard, 3 years with Premium and 5 years with White Glove, inside and out.
Warranty applies to surfaces in sound condition at the time of painting. It doesn't cover failure caused by rotted or deteriorated wood, moisture, rust, previous coatings failing, or structural movement. If we find a surface problem, we'll point it out before we start.
