Services

Interior is the specialty. Everything else is welcome.

Every job starts with a walk-through and a written estimate. Interior work is where Doug spends most of his time, so that's where the list starts.

The specialty

Walls & ceilings

Patching, sanding, priming, and two finish coats. Ceilings cut in cleanly against the wall color, and drips are not part of the deal.

The specialty

Trim, doors & baseboards

Caulked, filled, sanded smooth, and brushed or sprayed for a finish that looks like it came from the factory.

The specialty

Cabinets

Kitchen and bathroom cabinets degreased, deglossed, primed, and finished in a durable enamel — doors and drawers done off-site or on a rack.

Also available

Exterior siding

Wood, fiber cement, and trim: washed, scraped, spot-primed, and painted in the right window of Wisconsin weather.

Also available

Decks & fences

Cleaning, brightening, and stain or solid-color coatings that hold up through freeze and thaw.

Also available

Basements, garages & small commercial

Block walls, floors, utility rooms, and small offices or storefronts — the practical jobs most painters would rather skip.

About Doug

One painter, start to finish.

Doug Wallace has been painting homes for [number] years. He grew up in [hometown] and got into the trade [how — e.g. working summers for a family friend's painting crew, or after leaving another line of work]. Today he runs a [solo / two-person / small] operation out of Madison, which means the person who quotes your job is the same person who shows up to do it.

Most of his work is interior: walls, ceilings, trim, and cabinets in older Madison houses and newer ones alike. He likes the careful part of the job — the prep, the cut lines, the second coat that most people would skip — and he'd rather take one extra day than leave a wall that isn't right.

Doug is usually booking about [lead time — e.g. two to three weeks] out. He is [certifications or insurance he actually holds — e.g. EPA Lead-Safe certified; insured — or delete this sentence].

Note to Doug (delete before publishing): fill in each highlighted blank, then delete the highlighting. Do not list a license, certification, or insurance you don't currently hold — leave that sentence out entirely rather than guess. "EPA Lead-Safe certified" in particular is a specific federal certification; only claim it if you have the certificate.
