The 5 Best Painters in Houston

Founded in 2011, That 1 Painter Houston specializes in revamping masonry through Brick Painting and Limewashing.

We love how this contractor uses a calcifying, mineral-based paint that binds to the brickwork. The whole process leaves a matte finish that resists chipping and fading, unlike latex paint.

They can also perform Limewashing, which includes painting the masonry with a limestone-based solution that accentuates the texture of the stone walls. It leaves a luminous finish that makes buildings glow in the sunlight.

Homeowners must remember to choose painters that specialize in painting over stone walls to ensure that they use paint that binds to that surface. This is because standard paints like latex can trap moisture from the stone, which causes peeling.

While That 1 Painter Houston excels in painting masonry, they have fewer services for commercial properties. It’s perfect for those needing residential painting, but may not be a right fit for those with businesses or public establishments.

There are also times when the company misunderstands the requests of customers, especially when there are many people inquiring about their services.

Still, it’s wonderful that That 1 Painter Houston provides a 3-year warranty for all their projects, which can be transferred if you are planning to repaint the property you’re selling.

Since 1992, CertaPro Painters has been providing Commercial Painting services for business owners in the Central and Northeast Houston Area.

We like that the company’s commercial painting offering includes simple repairs on surfaces like carpentry and drywalls for the paint to stick better. Their painters will also caulk gaps in walls and windows to give the buildings a more polished appearance.

The company will also provide painting contracts if you need painting jobs for multiple branches of the same business. If necessary, they’ll send out specific painting details to their branches across North America so that the work is consistent.

We think the company’s commercial painting services can save a lot of time for business owners. It takes away the need to find and contact other painting companies when you need a project done on your buildings outside Houston.

Although, this contractor is slow at times when calling new clients about their inquiries, which can be inconvenient for those who are busy working. Their quotes for residential-type services also cost a bit more than other companies.

Regardless, we love that CertaPro Painters offers multiple discounts for projects priced above $1,000. The company also provides credit options through Acorn Finance, which will benefit those on a tight budget.

What sets Perfect Painters apart from others is its decorative painting and parking lot striping services.

The decorative painting uses different design strategies to paint drywall and mimic materials like wood or inlaid brick, giving it a seemingly different texture. Aside from that, their painters can also do detailing and lettering on walls and objects like mailboxes.

On the other hand, the company also has an excellent parking lot striping service. They use bright, fade-resistant paint to create parking divisions and signs including numbers and handicap symbols.

For those who own commercial spaces, it’s recommended to hire painters to make these divisions so that customers would have a guide to follow. This service will also ensure that handicap signs are more visible.

This company, however, is difficult to book due to the high number of their customers. At times, this firm will send out appointment dates two weeks after the call.

In addition, the painters will only do hand painting when fixing mistakes in their work. While it’s excellent that they provide this service, this touchup takes a lot of time.

Still, it’s commendable that Perfect Painters works seven days a week. Those who are working during weekdays will surely benefit if ever they need a painting job done.

What we love about Fresh Coat Painters of West Houston is its focus in providing solutions to improve and restore the appearance of wooden decks and terraces.

Besides providing a new coat of paint, the company can also apply sealants to protect the wood from mold and weather damage. The said deck sealing service starts with wood testing to check for rot, followed by the sanding and application of the coating.

Likewise, we think this contractor’s deck staining is a marvelous alternative for paint. The wood stain penetrates the inside of the deck, tinting it with earthy colors that can restore the color of fading wood.

In relation to that, people should note that painting wooden surfaces will conceal the texture of the material, making it look closer to shiny plastic or metal. It’s also important to stain the wood to prevent cracked and peeling coats caused by industrial paint.

Although, clients must note that the company doesn’t provide prepping services for their painting work. This means you need to clean and remove things like stickers off the walls before you call the company.

Nevertheless, we love that Fresh Coat Painters of West Houston includes a professional color matching session for every painting project for your house. If you’re unsure of the look you want to achieve, you can ask experts for aesthetic advice.

911 Houston Painters, LLC, a locally-owned painting company built in 2020. It stands out from the competition because of its stucco painting and kitchen and cabinet refinishing services.

We find the company’s stucco-related projects noteworthy because the company painters give special attention to these types of sidings. The company also meticulously chooses the right color and paint type before starting the project.

It’s important to know that stucco sidings need a painted cover to prevent moisture from seeping from the walls. It also insulates the walls by repelling UV rays, which can weaken stucco.

Besides Stucco Painting, 911 Houston Painters, LLC are also proficient when it comes to refinishing kitchen and cabinet surfaces. 

The company’s kitchen and cabinet refinishing starts with paint and texture selection. During the selection process, their painters will recommend styles to match the existing color of the area and the built-in furniture.

This painting contractor, however, doesn’t specialize much in painting commercial areas. It’s also unfortunate that they don’t provide warranty policies on their projects.

Regardless, it’s wonderful that 911 Houston Painters, LLC is thorough in painting areas, inspecting every side of the property several times so that they can find and rapidly address issues like uneven coats or accidental paint drips.
