How long will the work take?

Small Fourth Ward jobs can be a day or two; larger scopes run longer. The written quote states the working days we expect and what could change them.

Can you handle other work while you are here?

That is the point of hiring a company that does more than one trade. Painting, carpentry, doors, remodeling: one Fourth Ward scope, one crew, one schedule.

Do you take on small interior door installation jobs?

Yes, and we quote them the same way everywhere in Harris County: in writing after a look, so a small job never turns into a surprise invoice.

Do I need a permit for interior door installation in Fourth Ward?

It depends on the scope. Purely cosmetic work usually needs no permit, while anything structural, electrical or plumbing-related often does. We check the rules that apply to your address and handle what is required before work begins.

Do you cover Fourth Ward?

Fourth Ward is home turf: it sits in Harris County, which we cover end to end, so there is no travel surcharge and no long wait for a crew.

Why us

Why Fourth Ward homeowners call JM Painting

We are not the cheapest bid in Harris County and do not try to be. The bid that skips preparation is cheaper right up until the work fails, and our Fourth Ward customers tend to be people who have bought that lesson once already.

Touch-ups and callbacks are where distance shows. Harris County is a standing route for our crews, so coming back to Fourth Ward to make something right is a detour, not a lost day, and it actually happens.
