Inside and out,
every season.

Exterior crews paint from May to early October, when nights stay warm enough for paint to cure. When the weather turns, the same painters move indoors, so the work keeps its quality all year.

  • May to Oct Exteriors, decks and fences
  • All year Interiors and colour consultations
  • All year Cabinets, sprayed in our shop
  • All year Commercial, evenings and weekends

Cutline Painting Co. is a crew of 11 painters on our own payroll, not a rotating list of subcontractors. Since 2011 we've painted living rooms, kitchens, porches and offices across Madison. We're rarely the cheapest quote. We're the one that lists every room, every repair and every coat, then sticks to it.

Our promises, in numbers

After we leave

The lines are perfect

Three rooms and a stairwell. The ceiling lines are so straight my husband asked if they used a laser. They covered everything, cleaned every afternoon, and finished a day early.

Looks like new cabinets

Our oak kitchen was dark and dated. Tran's crew filled the grain and sprayed them navy. Friends keep asking where we bought the cabinets. We had a working sink the whole time.

Honest about the old paint

Our house is from 1924. They tested for lead before scraping and explained the extra steps in plain English. The quote did not change by a dollar. Two neighbours have asked for their number.

Never closed a day

They painted our whole office over five evenings. Every morning the desks were back where they belonged and it barely smelled of paint.

Finally picked a white

I had 14 white chips taped to the wall. Kelsey looked at the floors and the light, painted three big boards, and the answer was obvious in a day. Worth every penny, and it came off our bill.

Great result, worth the wait

Rain pushed our fence back a week, which was annoying at the time. But they wouldn't stain wet wood, and two months later it still looks fantastic. Rosa kept us posted the whole way.
