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.

Sit Back While We Paint
Our crew shows up on time, does the work right, and leaves your home cleaner than we found it.
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.

Word travels around here.
The crew showed up when they said they would, covered every inch of furniture, and the cut lines on the trim are sharper than the original builder's. Two years on, still looks brand new.
I've had three painters out here over fifteen years. Palmetto is the only one I'll call again. They prepped the cedar siding properly — the others just sprayed and ran.
Cabinets came back looking like brand-new furniture. They warned me upfront it would take a week — it took a week, exactly. Honest people, real craftsmen.
They Hardie siding on our house was peeling badly. Palmetto soft-washed, primed everything, and used Sherwin-Williams Emerald. Curb appeal is night and day.
We had a builder-grade home that needed a real paint job. The two-coat finish they put down looks like a different house. Foreman was on-site every day, very communicative.
Wraparound porch and detached garage — they handled both flawlessly. Crew was respectful, on time, and cleaned up every night before they left. Highly recommend.
