Frequently Asked Questions
How does your work hold up against the Florida climate?
Florida's humidity, intense sun, and heavy seasonal rains are tough on paint, so we build our process around that reality rather than treating it as an afterthought. In our humid and tropical Florida climate, it's imperative to make sure your home is completely water tight, and we pay close attention to detail to make sure of it. We also use quality, climate-appropriate paint products—because as any painter will tell you, an inexpensive paint might make sense in the short term, but higher-quality paint goes on smoother and lasts longer, meaning fewer retouches down the line.
Why is getting a yearly softwash important?
Florida’s heat and humidity create the perfect environment for mold, mildew, algae, and bacteria to grow on your home’s exterior. An annual soft wash safely removes these contaminants, protects your paint and siding, enhances curb appeal, and helps prevent costly repairs. Regular soft washing is an affordable way to keep your home looking its best while extending the life of your exterior surfaces
What does your preparation process look like?
We are very careful and calculated, paying great attention to every detail, and many hours of meticulous preparation have gone into our systems and processes. For interior projects, this includes maintaining an extremely clean workspace throughout, since we need a sterile environment to apply our premium coatings. For exterior projects, prep also includes waterproofing measures, since keeping your home completely water-tight is essential in Florida's humid, tropical climate.
What is the importance of Hiring a Licensed Contractor
A licensed contractor ensure your property is worked on by proven accountable professionals. Licensing ensures we meet state standards, carry proper insurance, and stand behind our work, so you're never liable for accidents on your property and always have recourse if issues arise. Elite Fishhawk Painting is fully licensed and insured for your peace of mind.
What forms of payment are accepted?
We accept a variety of payment methods for your convenience, including cash, check, Zelle (with a 1% servicing fee), Credit Card (with a 3.25% servicing fee), Venmo, and wire transfer. Please let us know your preferred payment method when finalizing your project details, and we'll be happy to accommodate.
What is the scope and length of a typical job?
Every project is different, but here's a general idea of what to expect. A single interior room typically takes about a day, while a full interior repaint of a home can take several days depending on square footage and the level of prep needed. Exterior projects usually run a bit longer, often 3 to 5 days for an average-sized home, since they involve pressure washing, drying time, and more extensive prep work to hold up against Florida's climate.
We handle both residential and commercial projects, from single-room refreshes to full home exteriors and larger commercial spaces. Before we start, we'll walk your property and give you a clear time estimate based on the specific scope of your job.
