We offer interior painting across Norfolk County, from Simcoe and Waterford to Delhi and the Port Dover shore. You get one published rate per sq ft of floor, the same as everywhere we work. Norfolk is a longer drive from our base, so the smallest project here is typically $1,000, about 210 sq ft of floor, walls only. Owner-run, liability insured, with a written 2-year workmanship warranty.
Norfolk's houses carry the story of its farms. The tobacco decades left big square farmhouses on the side roads. Many have wide staircases, tall main-floor ceilings and plenty of rooms. New owners often work through them one floor at a time, and a room-by-room written price suits that well. Each phase is charged at the same published rate.
Simcoe is the county's main town. Its older streets mix Victorian brick with postwar blocks, and the trim there has usually been painted many times. Delhi keeps tidy homes from its tobacco years. Waterford adds new subdivisions to a historic main street, and those builder walls are quick, clean work.
Then the county meets Lake Erie. Port Dover is a harbour town, with cottages and rentals on the streets above the beach. Turkey Point, Long Point and Port Rowan add more cottage lanes around the bay. Lake air is humid, so washrooms near the shore need a finish made for wet rooms. The product is named in your specification.
Ceilings over 8 ft are common in the old farmhouses. That extra height is priced in writing before you agree, never added at the end. A long job here runs as consecutive full days, so the work does not wait on a supply run.
Norfolk's towns sit at a similar distance from our Mississauga base, so the smallest project is typically $1,000 in each of these four towns. The rate per sq ft does not change. With Fresh Start, $1,000 covers about 210 sq ft, walls only: one large bedroom, or two small ones. The figure is for walls in normal condition at $2.65, before HST. Doors and other extras count toward it, so less floor fits inside. Most whole-floor jobs pass the minimum easily, and after that only the formula matters. The town is a guide; the exact address decides.
Port Rowan, Turkey Point, Long Point or a farm road: send the address, and we confirm its minimum in our first reply.
Residential painting, priced by the size of the rooms. The three standard packages get the same preparation, protection, cleanup and warranty; the difference is which surfaces are included. Signature Finish adds enhanced prep and premium coatings. Move the slider to see the total for your floor area.
Set your painted floor area, pick a package and add your town for a typical minimum. It runs on the same rates as the cards.
Phase one of a tobacco-era farmhouse is often the main floor: entry, hall, kitchen, dining and front rooms. Say that is 1,250 sq ft of painted floor with 8 ft ceilings and seven interior doors. Complete Home covers walls, ceilings, baseboards and casings, with the first door included. In normal condition, the total is $6,405 before HST. If every room needed extra prep, the top of the range is $7,095. The stair railings are a separate line.

See this example in the calculatorThe rates are ranges, but your written price is one number. It says which rate applies to each room and why.
You choose the colours and give us the codes. The exact product is named in your specification, so you can look it up before we start.
We use the finished floor area of the rooms we paint. Paint rooms totalling 900 sq ft in a 2,500 sq ft home and the price uses 900.
Doors and extras count toward the total. If that total comes in below the minimum for your address, you pay the minimum, and your written price lists exactly what it covers.
A lived-in home, ceilings up to 8 ft, previously painted drywall in normal condition. Colour changes are included when two coats cover.
Most homes can be priced from photos alone. If something in them is unclear, we ask before we put a number on paper. A written price keeps both sides on the same page.
That can be a fair quote. To compare like for like, check what each one includes: how many coats, whether ceilings are in, what prep is listed, and whether the warranty is in writing.
A price over the phone would be a guess. Photos show the state of your walls, and that decides which rate applies to each room.
Getting set up, protecting the floors and cleaning up take nearly as long for one small room as for a bigger job. The start price covers that, so a small job gets the same care. Every sq ft beyond the start is charged at the published rate.
Start with the walls. Fresh Start paints walls only. Ceilings and trim can follow later as a separate job, priced in writing, though doing them together usually costs less.
We work across the whole county, from the farm belt to the end of the cottage lanes. A Simcoe semi and a Long Point cottage are priced on the same rate card. Send photos and room sizes with your town, and you hear back the same business day.
East along the lake, see interior painting in Haldimand County; to the north, Brant County and Oxford County. What each package includes is on our main interior painting page.
Your price per sq ft is the same in every town. Only the smallest project changes, and your written price shows what it covers.
Setting up, protecting floors and cleaning take nearly as long for one room as for a bigger job, and Norfolk is a longer drive. The rate per sq ft is the same as anywhere; only the smallest project is higher. At $1,000, Fresh Start pays for about 210 sq ft of floor, walls only.
Yes. Choose the colours for the whole house at the start, then paint one floor or a few rooms at a time. Each phase gets its own written price on the same published rate.
Most owners pick the quiet months, when no guests are booked and the building is heated. Tell us your opening date. The room order and work days go into your written specification.
Paint alone rarely does. We point out signs of a likely cause, such as poor ventilation, a leak or damp in the wall. Once you have the cause fixed, the surface is cleaned, dried and finished with a wet-room product.
Usually not; photos and room sizes are enough. If we do need to come out, the visit is free across Norfolk, Signature Finish included, and there is no obligation to go ahead.
By then, you have your specification, price and warranty terms in writing.
