“Our first and foremost priorities with Fresh Coat Painters of Mentor is our customer service, customer satisfaction, and the high-quality professional services provided when a project is scheduled and then completed. We pride ourselves on hiring professional painters, who are screened, photographed, and identified upon entering a customer’s property.”

“We feel that painting and home improvements are a wonderful way to bring new colors, textures, and ideas to a home. It’s exciting and gratifying to us as owners, to the painters as craftsmen, and to the customer, who will live with a beautified space in which they reside or work daily."
