"I was so impressed with Top of the Line Painting. Weather held up the work for over a week but Matt stayed in touch almost every day. His team came at the designated time and finished staining not only a two-tier deck but also painted the front porch in less than a day. They also pressure-washed the house and it looks beautiful. The work they performed was absolutely professional and I am extremely happy with the job they did. I highly recommend this company!"

"Ben helped me with my front door. Every year it needs to be repainted since it faces the sun. He was ale to strip the paint, put new enamel primer and paint on it. He has also did some work in my home with pressure washing on my patio. He did the best job I have ever seen done. He took time to cover my patio ceiling fan. He is very deliberate in what he does doesnt waste any time. I am very pleased and looking forward getting more work done with him in the future."

FAQs for painting projects in Columbia, SC

We make finding a painter easy. Simply use our directory to find a painter. Here you can browse local pros, check their reviews and do your first screening without ever having to call. We’ve also prescreened all the pros for you, to give you peace of mind.

Painters usually price a job by the square feet of the project. Sometimes they’ll include flat fees for fixed expenses, like overhead and permits.

Painters usually supply their own paint. They have access to contractor discounts and usually buy in bulk, meaning you pay less for higher quality paint. You should still ask what kind they use and do a little research to make sure you approve.

Choosing between rolling or spraying an exterior depends on a lot of factors, including climate, wind, siding type, house shape and height. Your pro will know which method provides better results.
