We believe in providing high-quality painting services, and while we may not be the cheapest option on the market, we are confident that our expertise and craftsmanship make us the best choice for your project. Our pricing is competitive and reflective of the quality we deliver.
The price we provide is an all-inclusive estimate for your project, covering labor and materials. However, please note that any change orders made after the project begins may affect the final price.
To help you save money and time, we recommend that we procure the paint and materials for you. We have established strong relationships with Sherwin-Williams, allowing us to access deep discounts that can ultimately benefit you.
We also offer a free on-site estimate when you reach out to us, ensuring you have a clear understanding of the project scope and pricing before we begin.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once you reach out to us, we will contact you to schedule your free estimate. During this initial meeting, we’ll assess your needs and discuss your project in detail. If you choose us for your project, we’ll have you sign our proposal, and then we’ll work together to schedule a convenient time for the work to begin.
You will be assigned a dedicated Territory Manager who will be your main point of contact throughout the project. You can reach out to them at any time via text or call, ensuring you always have support and communication.
On the day your project starts, your Territory Manager will meet with you and the lead of our painting crew to confirm all project details. Our crew will work diligently, focusing on completing your project efficiently while being respectful of your home or business and minimizing any disruption.
Upon completion, we will conduct a final walk-through with you to ensure you are completely satisfied with our work. We believe in our quality, which is why we only ask for final payment once you are happy with the results.
We’re dedicated to providing a seamless and positive experience from start to finish!

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
We recently completed a full exterior painting project on a customer's aging barn, which held significant sentimental value for them. The goal was to restore the barn to its former glory while preserving its unique character.
The project took just under a week to complete. During this time, we meticulously prepared the surfaces, selected high-quality materials, and applied several coats for durability and a stunning finish.
Seeing the transformation was truly rewarding—the results blew our customer away, and we felt immense pride in what we were able to achieve. It was gratifying to know that our work not only enhanced the barn’s appearance but also helped our customer cherish a piece of their history.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
First and foremost, ensure that the company you’re considering has a great reputation. Look for reviews and testimonials from past customers to gauge their satisfaction. Always ask if the company is insured and who will be managing your project to ensure accountability.
It’s important to get clarity on what is included in the bid. Ask detailed questions about the type of paint that will be used, which specific items will be painted, and how the preparation work will be handled. Understanding these aspects can help you make a more informed decision.
Remember, price should never be the only factor in choosing a painter or any home service provider. Often, what seems like a bargain can lead to unexpected costs and headaches down the line. Prioritizing quality and communication can save you time, money, and stress in the long run. Choose a provider who values your project as much as you do, and you'll be much happier with the results.
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
Before speaking with professionals, it’s important to consider your budget and what can realistically be accomplished within that range. We offer free on-site estimates to help you navigate your budget and provide options that fit your needs.
Take some time to evaluate the areas that need to be painted and communicate these specifics to the estimator. Think about any colors or finishes you have in mind, as well as any special requirements for the project.
Additionally, consider your timeline. Remember that at 360 Painting, we are here to give you back your weekends. What might take you a month or more to do on your own, we can typically accomplish in just a few days.
By reflecting on these questions and details before your conversation, you’ll be better prepared to discuss your project and ensure a smooth and successful experience.
