Painting services in Umatilla

What painting services do you offer in Umatilla?

We handle the full range of painting and coatings for Umatilla homes. Every job gets full caulk-and-tape prep and two coats wherever paint goes on. Here’s what we do most for homeowners around here.

Exterior painting

Two coats over washed, sanded and caulked surfaces, with a 7-year peel-and-chip warranty built for Florida sun and storms.

Interior painting

Clean lines, careful masking of floors, furniture and countertops, and full cleanup when we’re done.

Cabinet refinishing

A higher-end kitchen look without a full remodel. Prepped, sprayed and finished smooth to hold up to daily use.

Epoxy and polyaspartic floors

Epoxy and polyaspartic coatings for garages and lanais, with a lifetime warranty on interior epoxy.

Our prep

How long will your paint last in Umatilla?

Paint lasts when the prep is done right. In our climate, sun, humidity and afternoon storms find every spot that wasn’t caulked, sanded or sealed. So before any paint goes on, we:

  • Wash the surface, with pressure washing or softwash where it fits
  • Scrape and sand loose spots
  • Caulk the gaps and tape the edges
  • Seal where it needs sealing
  • Apply two full coats of quality Sherwin-Williams products

That’s why we can stand behind exterior and interior paint for 7 years against peeling and chipping.

The honest part

What does a cut-corners paint job really cost you?

When you pick a bid just because it’s the lowest, you often pay for it later. We’ve walked into Umatilla and Lake County homes where the last crew charged for two coats but only put one on the wall, and you could see the old color bleeding through in the afternoon light. The lines were sloppy. There was paint on the floor, the furniture and the countertops that nobody bothered to wipe.

Skip the prep and the paint fails early. Then you’re paying twice: once for the cheap job, and again to fix it. Doing it right the first time is cheaper in the long run.

Why trust us

Why trust McWilliams Painting with your Umatilla home?

McWilliams Painting is owned by Weston McWilliams and based in Fruitland Park, here in Lake County. This isn’t a national franchise sending whoever is available. Our crews have been together 6-plus years, so the same hands that start your job are the ones that finish it, and that’s a big part of why our lines stay clean and consistent.

We back it up in writing

The proof is in the numbers, not the adjectives. We’ve painted 2,000 to 3,000 homes in The Villages alone. We put two coats on everything and do full caulk-and-tape prep before a drop of paint goes on. Then we back it up: a 7-year peel-and-chip warranty on interior and exterior paint, a lifetime warranty on interior epoxy, and a one-year follow-up where we call you to make sure everything still looks right. Weston is a member of BNI and BEST 352, married with kids, and takes pride in the little touches most crews skip.

Umatilla and nearby

Do you serve Umatilla and the towns around it?

Yes. Umatilla sits in northeast Lake County near the Ocala National Forest, and we cover the whole area, from lakefront lots to the older neighborhoods near downtown. If you have neighbors, family or a second home in a nearby town, we most likely paint there too.

Close-by towns we serve include Eustis, Mount Dora, Tavares, Grand Island, Altoona, Paisley and Sorrento. We work throughout Lake, Sumter and Marion counties, from the lake homes up here to the 55-plus communities down south. Wherever you are, the same crews, the same prep and the same 7-year warranty come with the job.

Can you refinish my kitchen cabinets instead of a full remodel?
