A job can be started within a week or two (exterior depends on the weather), once we receive a signed proposal, a deposit and the selected paint colors. A job cannot be started unless all paint colors have been chosen.
Once a project is started, we show up every day (Monday through Saturday) until the job is complete. We work 6 days a week 8 – 10 hours a day. The only exception is under certain weather conditions (exterior projects).
An estimator will arrive at your home during regular business hours of Monday through Thursday 9:00 am – 4:30 pm. Each appointment has a 1 1/2 hour window. The first appointment of the day is scheduled between 9:00 am and 10:30 am and the last appointment of the day is scheduled 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm.
Unfortunately we do not have evening appointments. It's imperative to have as much natural light as possible when doing an estimate, this will ensure the most accurate assessment of your home.
