This painting portfolio is our own work around Daytona Beach and the rest of Volusia County. Houses, a few commercial buildings, one garage floor and a bathtub or two. Each project with more than one photo has its own page, where we explain what was done and why.
Every photo is labeled. Before, during or finished. You should never have to guess whether you are looking at the end result or a wall halfway through its first coat.

Single photo projects
Some jobs only have one good photo. Those are collected on two pages, one section per project.
Why do some projects show work that is not finished yet?
Because the preparation is the part you cannot see once the job is done, and it is the part that decides how long the paint lasts.
A finished wall looks much the same whether it was washed, scraped and caulked first or not. The difference shows up two summers later, when the cheap job starts peeling around the windows. So where we have them, we show the in between shots: plastic wrapped over the shrubs, windows masked, a crack in a garage slab being filled before anything goes over it. Those photos are always labeled "During" or "Before" in the caption, so nobody mistakes them for the result.
Three of the projects here only have in progress photos so far. They are included because they show how we handle new wood, raw framing and a tall vaulted room, and they are sorted to the end of the list. The finished shots will be added when we have them. If you want to know how a job like yours is prepared, the exterior painting page covers our process in more detail.
What do these projects have in common?
They were all priced by the same person. Robert Bennett has been painting around Volusia County since 2014, and he walks every property before the estimate is written.
That matters more than it sounds. The Port Orange auto shop had a faded metal roof that needed washing and rust checks before any coating went on. The Ormond Beach pool home had bare wood siding at the back, under the pool cage. A bathtub in Daytona Beach went from yellow to white without being torn out. None of those jobs could be priced properly from a phone call, and all of them started with a walk around the building and a written number.
Most of the houses are block and stucco, which is what gets built here, and most are within a few miles of the ocean or the Halifax River. Salt air and hard sun are the conditions we plan for on every exterior, and the same is true inside, where humidity decides which paint goes in a bathroom. Our interior painting page explains how that plays out room by room.
How do you get an estimate for a project like one of these?
Call or send a message and tell us which project looks closest to yours. That one detail gives us a head start.
We will set a time to come out, look at the surfaces and measure. Expect questions about the house itself: how old the last paint job is, whether water gets in anywhere, and whether an HOA has to approve the color. You get a written estimate that lists the prep, the products and the number of coats, not one number on a business card. There is no charge for it and no pressure to sign on the spot. If your house does not need a full repaint yet, we will tell you that too.
Commercial owners and property managers get the same thing, plus a certificate of insurance for our $3,000,000 in general liability coverage. You can request a free painting estimate online or phone Color Masters Painting at (386) 631-6056. Robert usually answers himself.
Is one of these close to what you need?
Tell us which project it is and we will come out, look at yours and put a written estimate in your hands.
