Baltimore, MDPainters in Baltimore, MD
We are a family-owned painting company that has worked in and around Baltimore since 1997. From rowhomes in Canton and Federal Hill to storefronts downtown and homes out in the county, we do interior and exterior painting for people who want it done right and want to talk to an actual person while it happens.
Painting houses in Baltimore since 1997
Baltimore is an old city and it paints like one. Most of what we do here is rowhomes: brick and Formstone fronts, plaster walls that have been patched more than a few times, and trim carrying decades of old paint. That kind of work lives or dies on prep, so we spend real time scraping, sanding and patching before the first coat goes on.
We do plenty of newer and renovated places too, the sort you find around Canton, Locust Point and the harbor, where the goal is clean lines and a color that still looks right a few years down the road. Either way, we cover your floors and furniture, we show up when we said we would, and we leave the place cleaner than a lot of painters do.
If you have been looking for house painters in Baltimore, MD and either got no call back or a pushy quote, that is the gap we have filled since 1997. We are a licensed and insured painting company, not a franchise and not a call center, and we work as both residential and commercial painters in Baltimore, so a rowhome and a storefront are both a normal day for us. Most of our jobs still come from one neighbor pointing us to the next.

We pick up the phone
No call center and no chatbot. You reach a real painter who can talk through your job and give you a straight answer.
We do the prep old homes need
Baltimore is full of older houses, so we are EPA Lead-Safe certified and we do the scraping, patching and priming most people skip.

We carry an MHIC license (#70338) plus liability and workers' comp, so nothing lands on you if something goes wrong.
We respect your place
Floors and furniture get covered, spills get handled, and we clean up before we leave. Every visit, not just the last one.
Word of mouth keeps us honest
Most of our Baltimore work comes from someone telling their neighbor. That only keeps happening if the last job was done right.

We do. We work as commercial painters in Baltimore as well as house painters, so offices, retail, restaurants and rental properties are all fair game, and we can work evenings or weekends to stay out of your way.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We are licensed through the Maryland Home Improvement Commission (MHIC #70338), we are EPA Lead-Safe certified, and we carry liability and workers' comp. If you are comparing Baltimore painting contractors, ask each one for those. They matter more than most people realize.
