Lake County painting

Want your Lake County home painted right, not quick and cheap?

You want straight lines, two coats where you paid for two, and a finish that holds up through our hot, wet Florida summers. That’s the whole job at McWilliams Painting. We’re based in Fruitland Park and we paint homes across Lake County every week, from Mount Dora and Eustis to Tavares and Leesburg.

Here’s the short version: you pick the right pro once, then you stop worrying about it.

The real cost

What does the cheapest painting bid really cost you?

A low bid looks good on paper. Then the work starts. You find one coat where you paid for two, so the old color grins through within a season. You find sloppy lines where the tape should have been. You find paint on your floors, your countertops, and the furniture nobody covered.

In Lake County that gets worse fast. Our summer heat, humidity and afternoon storms punish a rushed exterior. Skip the prep and the paint can peel or chip in just a few years, and you’re paying twice for one job.

You shouldn’t have to babysit a crew in your own home

The right painter preps the surface, protects your things, and stands behind the work in writing. That’s the difference between a job you forget about and one you fight about.

Our services

What can we paint or coat for your Lake County home?

One of our strongest services. A refinished kitchen changes a home fast, and the work is backed in writing.

Meet the owner

Who runs McWilliams Painting?

Weston McWilliams runs McWilliams Painting out of Fruitland Park. He’s married with kids and he’s a member of BNI and BEST 352, so his name travels around Lake County by referral, not by loud ads. Weston is direct. He’ll even tell you to get three estimates, because he’d rather you choose him on purpose.

He won’t be on every job site all day, and he tells people that honestly. Instead, his long-tenured foremen run the work and walk each finished job with you. That way the quality holds whether it’s one room or a whole exterior.

Which Lake County cities do you cover?

We paint across Lake County, including Mount Dora, Eustis, Tavares, Leesburg, Fruitland Park, Lady Lake, Sorrento, Umatilla, Minneola and Grand Island. We also serve nearby parts of Sumter and Marion counties. If your town isn’t listed, call us and we’ll tell you if we can reach you.

Do you offer a warranty on painting in Lake County?

Yes. Exterior and interior painting carries a 7-year peel-and-chip warranty. Interior epoxy floors carry a lifetime warranty, and exterior coatings carry a 5-year warranty with a maintained plan. It’s all in writing before you pay. See the warranty details.

How soon can you start my project?

It depends on the season and how big the job is, since summer and repaint cycles get busy in Lake County. The fastest way to get a real date is to book a free estimate. We’ll give you a written price the same day and a realistic start window.

Do I have to pay a deposit before you paint?

No. You don’t pay until the job is done and you’re happy with it. Your foreman walks the finished work with you first, so anything that isn’t right gets fixed before any payment changes hands.

Why are you more expensive than the cheapest bid?

Because we don’t cut the parts you can’t see. We do full caulk-and-tape prep and two coats on everything, and we back it with a 7-year warranty. A cheaper bid often means one coat and no warranty, which costs more when it fails in a few Florida summers.

Do you refinish cabinets and coat garage floors, or just paint walls?

We do both. Cabinet refinishing and polyaspartic and epoxy floor coatings are two of our strongest services. A refinished kitchen or a coated garage floor changes a home fast, and both are backed in writing.

Is McWilliams Painting local to Lake County?

Yes. We’re based at 35247 Janice Drive, Fruitland Park, FL 34731. Owner Weston McWilliams is active in local BNI and BEST 352 groups, and most of our work comes from Lake County referrals.
