Our Process

Stand Out -We Make it Happen for You

INTERIOR / EXTERIOR

Unless otherwise requested, upon agreement to terms, together we will agree on an approximate date for the start of your painting project.

If we are running late because of weather or other unforeseen circumstances will will let you know as soon as we are aware of the situation.

If you need a particular date for the job to be started it can generally be arranged, however, if it’s the exterior of a home or office we are of course limited by weather conditions.

You will also be informed approximately how many days we expect it to take to completion.

When we start your job we stay until it is finished to your satisfaction. We don’t start your home then go and start another job. The exception to this rule is exteriors and weather.

You are free to inspect all progress at any point and are of course welcome to ask questions about our process or any other part of the job. The staff takes pride in their work and will talk at length if you wish about why we do what we do.

If you have special requests, dealing with pets or children, let us know and we’ll do our best to accommodate you. From experience small children and excitable pets are a poor mix with freshly painted surfaces.
