What should I do to prepare for my painting estimate?
There's no prep needed. Just have access to the areas you want painted. During the estimate, we'll assess the space, talk about your vision, and discuss any prep work we'll handle (like furniture moving, patching, or sanding).
What areas do you serve?
We serve Kansas City, KS and the surrounding metro — including Overland Park, Olathe, Shawnee, Lenexa, Mission, Lee's Summit MO, and Independence MO — generally anywhere within about 25 miles of 66102. If you're nearby and not sure, just ask.
About Our Services & Expertise
What services do you offer?
Interior and exterior house painting, home remodels (kitchens, bathrooms, and full rooms), home additions, and cabinet and trim refinishing. From a single accent wall to a whole-home addition, we handle projects big and small.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Craft Painting & Remodeling is licensed and insured, BBB Accredited with an A+ rating, and EPA Lead Renovator Certified. You're protected and working with a verified local contractor.
What does "EPA Lead Renovator Certified" mean, and why does it matter?
Homes built before 1978 can contain lead-based paint, which is hazardous when disturbed during painting or remodeling. EPA Lead Renovator Certification means we're trained and authorized to follow lead-safe work practices that protect your family during the project. It's an important credential for any work on older homes.
Do you provide references or past project examples?
Absolutely. We have a portfolio of completed projects you can view on our website and gallery. We also have BBB-verified customer reviews and are happy to provide references from recent clients upon request.
Paint & Materials
What kind of paint do you use?
We use premium, durable paints from two of the most trusted brands in the industry — Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore — chosen for rich, long-lasting color and a beautiful finish.
How do I choose paint colors?
We recommend getting paint samples from Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore, painting them on your wall, and observing them in different lighting throughout the day. We're happy to offer our thoughts during the estimate. Many customers bring inspiration photos or palette ideas we can help match.
Timelines & Project Duration
How long will my project take?
It depends on scope. A single interior room is often done in one to a few days, a full exterior repaint typically takes several days, and remodels or additions run longer depending on the work. We'll give you a clear timeline with your estimate.
How long does interior painting typically take?
A single room usually takes 1–3 days depending on size and prep needs. A whole-house interior can take 2–4 weeks. The timeline includes prep (patching, sanding, priming), painting, and cleanup. We'll give you a specific timeline with your estimate.
How long does exterior painting take?
Most exterior repaints take 5–10 days for single-story homes and up to 3 weeks for larger homes or when significant prep work is needed. Weather can affect scheduling. We'll plan the project to minimize weather delays and provide a clear timeline upfront.
How long does paint take to dry before I can use the room?
Most interior paint is dry to the touch within 1–2 hours and cured enough for light use within 24 hours, though we recommend waiting 3–7 days before moving furniture back. We'll give you specific guidance based on the paint brand and conditions.
The Painting Process
What preparation work is involved in painting?
Proper prep is essential for lasting results. For interior work, we handle patching holes, sanding rough surfaces, priming new drywall, and protecting floors and furniture. For exterior work, we power wash, scrape loose paint, caulk gaps, and prime bare wood. Good prep takes time but ensures a professional, long-lasting finish.
Do you move furniture and protect my belongings?
Yes. We move furniture away from walls, cover and protect floors and remaining furniture with plastic and drop cloths, and clean up thoroughly at the end of each day. Your home is treated like it's our own.
Can I stay in my home during painting or remodeling?
Yes, for painting projects, most homeowners stay home. We protect your furniture and flooring, work cleanly, and minimize disruption. For major remodels, we'll discuss what to expect based on the project scope. Lead-safe work may require temporary ventilation or room closing, which we'll explain.
Remodeling & Additions
What does the remodeling process look like?
We start with a free estimate and discussion of your vision, timeline, and budget. We then provide a detailed proposal with a timeline. Once you approve, we schedule the work, manage permits if needed, coordinate the project day-to-day, and keep you updated. Our 2-year workmanship warranty covers all work.
Do you handle permits and inspections for remodels?
Yes. For remodeling projects, we manage permits and coordinate inspections with the city. We make sure all work meets building codes. This is included in your project estimate.
Do you handle cabinet refinishing?
Yes. We refinish kitchen and bathroom cabinets, doors, trim, and custom woodwork with a smooth, professional finish. Cabinet refinishing is a cost-effective alternative to replacement and can transform a room.
Pricing, Payment & Warranty
How much does it cost to paint or remodel my home?
Every project is different, so pricing depends on the size of the space, the condition of the surfaces, the prep work involved, and the materials you choose. That's why we provide a free, detailed estimate up front — with no surprises and no obligation.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We offer financing options to help make your painting or remodeling project more affordable. Just ask about financing when you book your free estimate and we'll walk you through what's available.
What's your payment process?
We typically work on a project-based price with a deposit to schedule the work and final payment upon completion. Financing is also available. We'll discuss payment terms in detail during your estimate.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. Every project is backed by our 2-year workmanship warranty. We take pride in careful prep, premium Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore paints, and clean job sites, and we stand behind our work. We're happy to go over the details with you during your free estimate.
What if I'm not happy with the work?
We stand behind our work with a 2-year workmanship warranty. If you have any concerns, contact us immediately and we'll address it. Our goal is complete customer satisfaction, and we're committed to making it right.
Scheduling & Flexibility
Can you work around my schedule?
Yes. We offer flexible scheduling and can work around your routine. For painting, we typically work Monday–Saturday, 7am–7pm. If you need evening or weekend work for a specific reason, just ask during your estimate.
