FROM OUR NEIGHBORS
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.
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.
