Walls, ceilings, doors, and trim — meticulously prepped, cut in by hand, and finished in low-VOC paints safe for your family.

THE PALMETTO DIFFERENCE
Old-school craftsmanship
in a one-and-done world.
The painting industry runs on speed. We don't. Every Palmetto job is treated like it's our own home — that's why the prep takes longer, the lines come out cleaner, and the finish still looks new five years from now.
- No subcontractors. The crew that quotes your job is the crew that paints it.
- No corner-cutting. Every surface gets prepped right — washed, sanded, primed.
- No surprise charges. Line-itemed estimates, signed before we lift a brush.
HOW IT WORKS
A simple, honest process.
No high-pressure sales. No surprise charges. Three clear steps.

ABOUT US
Painting is the easy part.
Preparation is the craft.
Anyone can roll a wall. What separates a coat of paint from a finish that endures is the work that happens before the first brush is loaded — washing, scraping, sanding, caulking, priming. We don't skip steps because nobody can see them. We don't skip steps because we can.
Every Palmetto job is led by a working foreman, finished by a small crew you'll see every day, and signed off in person. No subcontractors. No surprises. Just a finish you'd be proud to leave to the next family in the house.
SERVICE AREA
Proudly serving the Columbia metro.
We're based in Columbia and we stay in Columbia. Same-day responses, local references, and a crew that knows the difference between a 1950s Forest Acres ranch and a new build in Lake Carolina.
