Home painting and house painting for Baton Rouge homeowners, from one room to the whole house. Professional painting services from one crew and one project manager:
Walls, ceilings, trim, doors and accent walls. Furniture is moved and covered, surfaces are patched and primed, and two coats go on before the cleanup.
Kitchen cabinets, islands, bathroom vanities and built-ins. Doors, drawers and hardware come off, every surface is degreased and sanded, and everything goes back on when the finish is done.
Siding, trim, doors and shutters, with a power wash and repairs before paint. Exterior projects carry a written 3-year labor warranty.
Nail holes, small drywall damage, cracked caulk and worn trim are fixed before painting begins.
How it works
We talk through the project, the rooms and the colors you have in mind.
Measurements and photos, in-person color samples and digital renderings of your actual walls.
Scope, prep, products, timeline and price in writing: no vague scopes and no surprise line items.
Prep first, then paint, with daily updates from your project manager.
We walk the finished project with you before final payment.
Upfront pricing
The price on your written proposal is the price you pay: no vague scopes and no line items added halfway through. We walk the finished project with you, room by room, before final payment, and anything that needs attention is taken care of while we're still on site.
