FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Step 1: After requesting a quote from Color Wave Painters, our Office Manager schedules an in-home estimate around your schedule. Precise measurements are taken, and our estimating software accurately calculates the cost of labor and materials on-site, meaning you’ll receive your estimate the same day! Step 2: With an approved estimate, clients move into the color selection process. We can source or match colors from any manufacturer and in certain locations we have professional Color Consultants available to support you in your color decision. We also utilize the Sherwin Williams digital color wall as a resource to help you with color selection. Our Office Manager works with you to select the best dates for painting of your home based around your schedule. Step 3: Preparation is key to beautiful, long-lasting results, and our professional crews at Color Wave Painters are rigorous during the prep stage of painting. Surfaces are cleaned, irregularities are patched, fixtures and flooring are masked off. When painting begins, each layer is applied to follow the manufacturer’s best practices. This prevents premature peeling & cracking and ensures beautiful, long-lasting results! Once fully dry, site clean-up begins. All tape, tarps, and coverings are removed and disposed of; all furniture is re-set to the original configurations, and your re-painted home is ready to be lived in. Step 4: Your Project Manager accompanies you on a final quality check to ensure our highest quality standards are met — and that your expectations are exceeded!

As a kid I painted houses with my father.
- What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
1. Are you planning on painting this year? How soon are you looking to get your project done? 2. Do you have colors picked out? Or would you like the estimator to bring a color booklet? 3. Do you notice any peeling, fading or cracking paint? 4. How long would you like your paint job to last.
