Questions I get a lot

How much does it cost to paint a room in Hickory, NC?

My Room Refresh special is $199 flat for a standard bedroom or office up to 12×12, and that includes the wall paint. Larger spaces like living rooms, kitchens, and master suites run a little more, and you'll have the exact number before I start.

Do you supply the paint?

Yes. Professional-grade wall paint in standard neutrals is included in the price. If you have a specific color in mind, mention it when you text me and we'll sort it out.

How fast can I get a price?

Text your room dimensions or 2 quick photos to (704) 657-8382 and I'll usually have a locked-in price back to you the same day. You don't need an estimate appointment.

Are you insured?

David Santos Painting is fully insured. In North Carolina, a state contractor license is only required for projects of $40,000 or more, so jobs like the ones you see here don't call for one.

What areas do you serve?

I'm based in Hickory and work across Catawba and Iredell counties, including Newton, Conover, Statesville, Mooresville, and the Lake Norman area.

Do you only paint?

Painting is the main trade, but I also install carpet and LVP flooring, rebuild decks, and pour concrete footings and pads. I take commercial work too, like gyms, offices, and apartment buildings.
