The Trade We Started With

Chattanooga's painting team — for the home you live in and the storefront you run.

Painting was the trade Bill Goodpaster brought to Chattanooga in 2002, and it's still the work we're most particular about. Residential or commercial, interior or exterior — every surface gets the prep, primer and finish coat it deserves.

Residential — Interior

The prep is the job. The paint is just the finish.

Whether you're freshening up the baseboards or doing a full color overhaul, our interior crews work quickly and carefully — scraping, sanding, caulking, patching and priming so the next coat actually lasts. Drop cloths over every square foot. Furniture protected. Personal items left alone.

  • Walls & CeilingsPatch, prime and two finish coats minimum on every surface.
  • Trim, Doors & CabinetsHand-brushed for a furniture-grade finish — or sprayed for that factory look.
  • Wallpaper & Popcorn RemovalStrip, skim, prime — your walls and ceilings ready for a fresh start.
  • Color Consult IncludedWe bring large samples to your home so you can see colors in your actual light.

Residential — Exterior

Add curb appeal — and protect your investment for years.

Exterior paint takes a beating in the Tennessee Valley — UV, humidity, hailstorms, freeze-thaw. We use paints rated for the climate, applied to a surface that's been properly washed, scraped and primed. The result lasts twice as long as a quick spray-and-go.

  • Full House RepaintsSiding, trim, soffits, shutters — the whole envelope.
  • Pressure WashingEvery exterior gets a thorough wash so paint bonds to bare surface.
  • Wood Repair & CarpentryRotted trim, fascia or siding — replaced before we paint, not painted over.
  • Deck & Fence StainingPressure-treated, hardwood, composite — sealed and protected.

Storefronts, offices, multifamily, churches, restaurants, light industrial — we paint commercial property across the Tennessee Valley without forcing a shutdown. After-hours, weekends, phased schedules, fully insured crews. Corporate color matching available for franchise locations.

FAQ

Painting questions.

What paint brands do you use?

We're a Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore shop by default, with PPG and Behr available on request. For commercial coatings we use Sherwin-Williams ProIndustrial and Tnemec lines.

How long does an interior repaint take?

A standard 3-bedroom interior repaint typically runs 2–4 days depending on the number of colors, whether ceilings are included, and the condition of the trim. We give you a day-by-day schedule before we start.

Can you do exterior painting in winter?

Chattanooga winters are mild enough that we can paint exteriors most days. We watch the forecast carefully — we won't apply paint if temperatures are heading below the manufacturer's minimum overnight.

Do you charge a premium for nights and weekends on commercial jobs?

No. After-hours, weekend and overnight work is part of how we work commercially — we don't upcharge for it.

Can you provide certificates of insurance?

Yes — same day. We carry general liability and workers' comp, and we can name your property manager, building owner or commercial tenant as additionally insured on request.

Do you provide a written warranty?

Yes — every painting job comes with our 5-year labor warranty in writing. If the paint fails because of how we applied it, we come back and fix it on our dime.
