Been in the Insurance Restoration Business since 1992. Number of employees 15 to 25.

"The quality of work was great. All of the workers were exactly what you would hope for. We had work on an exterior wall, interior wall, sliding patio door replaced, new vinyl flooring by two doors, lots of wallpapering, and carpet replaced, requiring different workmen on different days, stretching the completion time over a few months."

"Extremely poor. I don't often write reviews. Like most people, if a contractor meets my expectations and does a good job, I don't take the time to write a review. I felt the need to write this one. We have had several contractors work on our house in the last year as we went through some upgrades. I did decide to write reviews for the ones that went above and beyond in terms of expectations. Unfortunately this is NOT one of those. Got 3 estimates and chose "Just in Time Painting" because Justin told me he had worked for bigger companies and branched out on his own 5 years ago. I like giving new young businesses a chance, so I went with him. MISTAKE. He needs more experience in both professionalism and quality. I, the homeowner, had to point out blatant quality issues that should have never happened.... flaking paint that I could get up with my fingernail AFTER they scraped, painting over flaking paint, not adequate coverage, areas not painted at all. It was extremely frustrating. When he said they would be done by the afternoon of the first day, I questioned their optimism and speed and said I was very concerned about the quality of the job, not the time. You simply can't do a quality job on 50 windows in a few hours but that was their plan. They did slow down and took another day but it was still shoddy and I am STILL finding areas that were completely missed. I work in commercial design/construction so I know quality painting and have seen it many times. This was not it. He kept telling me to "wait for the final product"..... in painting you can't ignore the process.... the prep work and inspection of the prep work is the key to successful repainting of any old surfaces. He also told me that the parts of the window that were previously painted but didn't show when the window is closed is "extra" and not part of typical window painting. Wait/what? So when you open the sash/casement only 1/2 of the sill would be painted? NOT typical. I do NOT recommend them.... and I don't say that often. Maybe they would be OK on an interior wall with no trim but not on windows for sure! Sorry....I hope you can improve your quality so you can survive as a business. If they would like to come back and do a better job, I will edit/remove my review but I rely on reviews and assume others do too, so this was important to say.... A few pictures to show the "finished product". I would have stopped payment of the check but he quickly cashed it."

Exterior home or structure paint or stains FAQs

Exterior paint costs around $20 to $80 per gallon, while interior paint costs around $20 to $30 per gallon. Outside paints tend to be pricier because they need to withstand the elements, such as abrasion, moisture, and color corrosion from the sun. In addition, painting the outside of a home is more costly at around $3,100, while painting a home interior costs around $2,000.

Use our paint calculator to determine the number of gallons of paint needed for your project. The average gallon of exterior paint covers 350 square feet in a single coat. So, a 1,500-square-foot home with a paintable area of 1,100 square feet requires seven gallons of paint for a two-coat application.

When determining how much extra paint to purchase and whether to apply primer, clear planning is essential. Rounding up your paint requirements ensures complete coverage and prevents gaps during the application process. Extra paint acts as a safeguard against miscalculations, while proper primer application—decided by the paint type and exterior condition—secures adhesion and long-lasting protection.

When determining how often to repaint your home’s exterior, careful evaluation of both the current paint condition and building materials is crucial. Exterior paint is engineered to last five to 10 years. Aluminum surfaces require repainting every five years, wood requires a new coat every three to seven years, and painted brick needs refreshing every 15 to 20 years. Visible chipping or cracking signals the need for prompt repainting to sustain protection and curb appeal.

When deciding whether to roll or spray exterior house paint, the method chosen directly influences the overall finish and work efficiency. Rolling delivers precision and control for tight, detailed areas, whereas spraying achieves a smooth, even coat on large surfaces with high efficiency. The equipment used and labor intensity are key considerations; homeowners must choose the technique that best suits their project scale and quality requirements.

When evaluating the duration of an exterior painting project, a professional team completes an average-sized house within three to four days. Larger or more complex projects—such as three-story homes or residences with extensive architectural details—require five to six days due to increased surface area and additional setup. A contractor provides an exact timeline after reviewing all project specifics.
