Each project is specific and unique, which is why we believe in going to your home in person and providing a comprehensive estimate. Price varies depending on the preparations needed, trim details, color scheme, and square footage. Request an estimate to learn more about what your project will cost.

If you would like to get an estimate on your project you can click the “Request Estimate” button at the top of our website to fill out our form with your information. A member of our team will contact you to schedule an on-site and in-person comprehensive estimate.

We service the residential neighborhoods of Seattle and the greater metro area. While the majority of our service area is in the Seattle area, we also service outside of Seattle depending on the scope of the project. If your home is outside of our service area, contact us to learn more.

On an individual level, it requires an 8-hour training course followed by a pass/fail exam at a designated and accredited EPA Lead Training facility. We believe any individual handling a lead project must be properly trained to ensure compliance. The EPA requires only one safety officer per certified business. However, PRP goes the extra mile by individually training and certifying all paint and carpentry leads, project managers, and estimators as EPA Lead Safe Renovators to ensure accountability and compliance.

All PRP Painters, Carpenters, and Management team members are full-time W2 employees except for specialty construction trades partners such as gutter installers, roofers, and masons.

Yes, we are fully licensed, bonded, insured & EPA RRP Lead Safe Certified.

At PRP “Safety First” is our mantra. We believe that even though painting is a dangerous job, nobody should ever have to worry about getting home safely to their family at the end of the day. In case any injuries do occur, every one of our staff members is fully covered through the WA Dept. of Labor & Industries.

We use a combination of EPA-required containment measures such as deploying plastic ground cover, taping tolerances on windows and doors, and using HEPA-contained vacuum systems with all power tools to prevent the spread of lead dust or debris. Our workers are required to employ appropriate PPE to minimize their exposure to lead dust. We also thoroughly inspect and clean the job site at the end of each day and project phase.

No, but we do charge a half-day minimum. When you are thinking of your small projects, think of other projects we could do in that time.

When it comes to carpentry repairs, Time and Materials (T&M) estimates are often used instead of fixed bids. The nature of carpentry repairs can be complex, with unforeseen issues or hidden problems often arising once work begins.

Something that is typically less than a week of work. These types of projects include smaller painting projects like doors, porches, railings, etc. Learn More (link to small projects page)

White wood refers to wood that has a light or pale color, typically ranging from white to cream or light tan. It is not a specific type of wood species but rather a general term used to describe the appearance of the wood. We use this term often to describe building products that do not meet the same durability standard of more commonly used (and far superior) siding and trim materials such as Western Red Cedar and Douglas Fir.

"Rot" refers to the decay or decomposition of wood or other organic materials due to fungal growth. Addressing rot before painting is crucial because painting over rotted wood will not only fail to remedy the problem but may also exacerbate it.

We use a wide range of products and select products based on the type of project and desired finish. Check out our Products page to learn more!

We cover floors with floor paper and place furniture in the center of the room, covered in plastic. We make sure to take all precautions in protecting your belongings and will discuss a strategy with you before we start the project.

Our standard process is to lightly scuff sand by hand any trim to de-gloss the surface to allow proper paint adhesion. If oil-based paint or hi-sheen paint is present, we will add a power sand and a bonding primer coat if deemed necessary. Any nicks and dings in the walls, ceilings, or trim will be filled, sanded, and spot-primed.

A typical interior paint project can take between 6 and 10 days depending on the size and if we are also painting the trim. Trim and door painting often take as long as the walls and ceilings combined.

Yes! We offer free color consultations for almost all of our interior and exterior projects to ensure you get the professional help that these challenging decisions sometimes require. We believe this is key to making sure you are happy with the end result and our paint job looks good.

No. Because interiors are not affected by the elements. The biggest factor that determines longevity is how the surfaces are used and/or abused by the homeowner. Because we cannot control use and wear and tear, we cannot warranty interior finishes. However, just like with our exteriors, all of our products and processes are geared towards long-term durability.

We select from a wide range of products based on the type of project and the specific elements a given surface will be subjected to after we are done painting it. Where and when we can, we prefer to use PNW-specific products made by PNW companies. Check out our Products page to learn more!

We employ a wide range of solutions to protect plants during the prep and paint process. From 5-gallon buckets placed over new plantings to plastic sheeting or even bed sheets to cover larger plants such as Rhodis and Azaleas. To protect soil we use heavy-duty 1-2 ml plastic, catch n cover garden fabric, and even burlap if the situation calls for it. These decisions are discussed between the customer and the Project Manager during the initial project walk-through.

Our exterior painting timelines vary greatly and depend on the size and age of the home as well as particular details such as prep needs and the number of colors. Typically an average size home can take anywhere between 6 and 12 days to complete.

A combination of plastic, paper, drop clothes, etc. are used to mask off things we need to cover and protect. These things include walkways, decks, windows, roof lines, etc. In some cases, we will even remove things such as doors and mounting hardware if it saves time or produces a better result.

Yes! We provide an industry-leading 7-year exterior warranty. This warranty is the result of decades of product testing and process refinement. Paint warranties typically cover the first half of the expected life of the paint job. At PRP we believe our prep, products, and process will consistently produce paint jobs that will last a minimum of 15 years and in many cases longer. Restrictions: Due to wear and tear beyond our control, some surfaces are not covered such as decks, steps, and porches that get walked on as we cannot control wear and tear. In many cases, we also cannot warranty dark colors with an LRV of 20 or lower. *Although we do not provide our warranty on these surfaces we still employ our products and processes to ensure maximum longevity.

Preparation is the key to a long-lasting paint job. On older siding where lead is present, we like to use the Paint Shaver Pro mechanical stripping system which quickly and safely strips the paint down to bare wood while collecting all the paint chips into the EPA-certified HEPA vacuums.
