Our Journey

Started with a brush, a truck, and a growing family.

With over 7 years in the painting industry, our founder started out with the largest privately owned residential painting company in the U.S., helping the business expand from Colorado into Texas. He and his wife, a Tallahassee native, saw the chance to put down roots here and start Elmwood Painting.

Today, we bring that same big-company craftsmanship to a small, family-run operation — one that still shows up on time, treats your home with respect, and stands behind every job.

Common Questions

Painting FAQs for Tallahassee Homeowners

How much does painting cost in Tallahassee, FL?
Cost depends on the size of the space, the condition of the surfaces, the paint quality selected, and how much prep or repair work is needed. We provide a free, no-obligation estimate after seeing the project so you get an accurate number, not a rough guess.
How long does exterior painting last in Florida's climate?
With proper prep and quality paint, exterior painting typically lasts 5–8 years in Tallahassee's heat and humidity. Homes with more direct sun exposure or older siding may need attention sooner.
Is surface prep really necessary before painting?
Yes. Scraping, sanding, patching, and priming are what make a paint job last. Skipping prep is the number one reason paint peels or fails early — it's a step we never cut corners on.
How long does a typical painting project take?
A single room usually takes 1–2 days. A full interior or exterior repaint can take several days to about a week, depending on size and scope. We'll walk you through a clear timeline during your free estimate.
Do you handle cabinet refinishing as well as painting?
Yes — cabinet refinishing is one of our core services, along with interior painting, exterior painting, deck staining, and wood replacement for damaged trim or siding.
How often should I repaint my home?
Interior walls typically need repainting every 5–7 years depending on wear. Exterior painting in our climate is usually recommended every 5–8 years, though sun exposure and surface material can shift that timeline.
