What can we paint or coat in Howey-in-the-Hills?

Whether you’re refreshing the inside, protecting the outside from Florida sun, or updating a kitchen or garage floor, we cover the work most homeowners here ask for. Every job gets full caulk-and-tape prep and two coats on everything.

Exterior painting

Full prep, sealing and two coats to stand up to lake air, Florida sun and afternoon storms.

Interior painting

Clean lines, protected floors and furniture, and low mess in a lived-in home.

Cabinet refinishing

A higher-end kitchen update without a full remodel. One of our most popular upgrades.

Polyaspartic coatings

Tough floor finishes for garages and lanais.

Epoxy flooring

Durable epoxy floor coatings, with a lifetime warranty on interior epoxy.

Deck, dock and fence staining

Stain for decks, docks and fences near the lakes.

Popcorn ceiling removal

Take down dated textured ceilings for a smooth, clean look.

Stucco and drywall repair

Repairs done before we paint, so the finish has a sound surface. Drywall services too.

Pressure washing

Pressure washing and softwash to prep surfaces before paint goes on.

The stakes

What does a rushed paint job really cost you?

The cheapest bid feels good the day you sign it. Then the work starts. You see one coat where you paid for two. You see wavy cut lines along the ceiling. You find paint on the floor, the furniture and the countertops. A few Florida summers later, the exterior starts to peel and chip because nobody prepped it right or sealed the surface first.

That’s the real price of picking wrong: you pay again to fix it, and you live through the mess twice. For a retired homeowner who just wants the house to look right and stay that way, that’s a headache you shouldn’t have to babysit. Careful prep and two honest coats cost a little more up front, and they save you the do-over. That’s the quality-over-quantity trade we stand behind on every Howey-in-the-Hills home.

Lakeside homes

Why do Howey-in-the-Hills exteriors need extra care?

Howey-in-the-Hills is a small, higher-end lakeside town, and the homes here deserve careful work, not a franchise assembly line. The lake air, sun and afternoon storms are hard on exterior paint, so proper sealing and two coats matter more here than in many places.

That’s why every exterior starts with full caulk-and-tape prep and sealing before the first coat. It gives the paint something sound to grip, and it’s the step a rushed crew skips.

While we work

What happens while we work, and after?

We keep it simple so you always know what’s next: the three steps above, no surprises. Along the way we cover your floors and furniture, tape and caulk before we paint, and put two coats on everything. And we don’t take a payment until you tell us it’s right. That’s the promise that lets you relax while we work.

Do you back your work with a real warranty?

Yes, and it’s in writing. Painting carries a 7-year peel-and-chip warranty. We also do a one-year follow-up: about a year after the job, we check in to make sure everything still looks the way it did on day one.

And here’s the part that removes the worry entirely: you don’t pay until you’re satisfied. We walk the finished job with you first. If something needs fixing, we fix it before any money changes hands.
