Services we offer

Fine-Finish Spraying (HVLP & Airless) – Mirror-smooth doors, trim, and built-ins with minimal overspray and razor-sharp lines.

Services we don't offer
A Quick “We-Don’t-Do” List (so you know exactly what to expect) 🎨🚫 Hazardous remediation – We’ll happily paint once surfaces are safe, but we don’t remove lead paint, asbestos, or mold (we’ll refer you to certified specialists). Major drywall/framing installs – We patch, skim, and perfect surfaces, but we don’t hang full sheets or build new walls. Big-ticket carpentry & construction – Door/window replacements, deck-board rebuilds, and roofing or gutter work are handled by dedicated trades. Full remodel trades – No plumbing, electrical, tile, or HVAC—paint and protective coatings are our lane. Industrial blasting & confined-space tank coatings – We stick to standard commercial/residential protective systems. Specialty artistic finishes – Murals, Venetian plaster, or gold leaf aren’t in-house (but we’ll gladly connect you with an artist). Extreme-temperature exterior painting – If temps drop below manufacturer specs (≈ 35-40 °F), we pause rather than compromise quality. Food-plant/24-hour shutdown epoxy floors – Those require niche crews and overnight shifts beyond our current lineup. If you’re unsure whether a task fits, just ask! If we don’t do it, we likely know a trusted pro who does. 🙌

"Thank You [Member Name Removed]"
consider to put things back the way they found them, I would have been happy and there was like on these doors that they painted they took the hardware off, put the back on I had brand new hardware on these doors and they were damaged so when they went to reconnect them to the doors so I was really happy about that it's hundreds of dollars on hardware that was damaged so scratched some of it been off put them back on so I wasn't very happy with that. Their painting though I would say it was above average.
The reason I would recommend them because we got in right away had everything done that day like they said everything was done in a timely manner has they said it would be overall their workmanship was overall I would say it was pretty good, like I said I don't know if I would recommend them or not because I wasn't really happy with the hardware being damaged. Just one painting services yes I would recommend them on the their re installation of things I would say no.
"[Member Name Removed] , If you had called the office or talk to the lead on the job we would have taking care of this problem. We never knew there was a problem on this job."
Ben and his team did an awesome job under an intense deadline. We can't recommend them highly enough. Not only did Ben come out last minute to assist us, he even fielded a call from us during a holiday weekend and added us into his schedule that Monday.
In short, they really did save the day and kept our project on schedule.
"Was Great working with you [Member Name Removed] and I wish you luck on your move."
