When comparing painting quotes, it's best to consider the following:

• Detailed scope of work - areas to be painted or excluded
• How many coats of paint required to achieve the desired colour
• Which paint product is included (We separately list the paint products and quantities - offering it below retail pricing)
• We also offer the option to upgrade the paint product and list the benefits of each product
• What's included in Standard Preparation. Ours includes repairing wall dents/gouges and filling holes up to 1/2" diameter, Pole sanding of walls, Removal/reinstallation of electrical plates, furniture poly (if required), and tarping of work area 
• Accredited Business -  WCB, Insurance, and Journeyman Certificate #s are listed

Yes! We can quote from photos - If the realtor listing or virtual walk-through is still available, that is ideal. 

We don't give quotes solely from square-footage. There are too many factors to consider.

Yes. A ~10% booking fee is required before work starts, outlined in your estimate with payment instructions. *Specialty products and wallcoverings are paid for upfront to cover ordering.

Yes. Our goal is to make your walls look like new. We can even repair larger holes and replace drywall. 

Yes! Paint consultations are $250+GST, prepaid, or complimentary on projects over $3,500. We use large Benjamin Moore neutral colour panels - not tiny fandeck chips -so you can see true colour before committing.

A lot of our clients work during the day and leave us with a key or door-code. While it is preferable that no one is home, it is not necessary that you vacate. Some clients schedule vacation getaways and come back to a refreshed home!

When you receive the invoice, it will list the payment options. We accept e-transfer (preferred), cheque, credit card (with a small merchant fee), and cash.

We typically start at 8:30 am, but can be flexible to suit your schedule. We end our day around 5 pm, but may stay a bit later to finish off a section. We sometimes work weekends when required.

Yes! We have both WCB coverage and Liability Insurance.

Benjamin Moore is known for its High Quality Durable paint.  

For walls, I quote using the REGAL line, but I give options to upgrade/change to SCUFF-X  or AURA.   If you're on a budget, I will suggest the contractor line (which is still comparable to other company's premium products)

I love to support local - Benjamin Moore stores are individually and locally owned... compared to large corporate or box stores. 

There is a slight odor with any paint. We only use quality products from Bejamin Moore, which have zero to minimal VOCs. We open windows when weather permits. And recommend you turn on your Central Ventilation System. 

We would recommned waiting at least 48 hours before re-hanging items that touch the wall. 

In general, painting should happen AFTER new floors. (*the exception would be ceiling work)

Reason #1 - Installers can accidentally damage walls and trims as they remove old flooring or install new.  Best results are achieved with continous painting rather than "touch-ups" 

Reason #2 - Often baseboards are removed and reinstalled and left "as-is".  We will caulk the tops, fill holes and repaint the baseboards.  

Reason #3 - There could also be wall repair needed if the baseboads are lowered to accomodate a thiner flooring option.  Ex. Vinyl flooring is not as thick as carpet and therefore the baseboards would be lowered when reinstalled.
