About us
Just the two of us, on every job.
Ben painted for a large company for eight years. Marisol ran the front desk of a dental office and kept wondering why no one ever cleaned up properly. In 2017 we started Two Coats with one van, a few ladders and a simple idea: paint the way we would want our own home painted.
We still do every job ourselves. No subcontractors, no crew you have never met. Marisol does color advice, quotes and cutting in. Ben does prep, ceilings and anything on a ladder.

Reviews
From the people whose walls we painted.
★★★★★ 4.9 average from 110 Google reviews.
“They moved every piece of furniture, painted three bedrooms in two days and left the house cleaner than before. Marisol helped us pick a white that actually looks warm.”
“Small job, one hallway and four doors, and they treated it like it mattered. The quote was exactly what we paid.”
“On time, tidy, done by four.”
“Ben fixed a dozen nail holes and a crack over the door I had ignored for years. You honestly cannot tell. Fair price, on time both days.”
“Marisol taped six sample boards up in the living room and told us to look at them morning and night before deciding. We picked the third one and still love it a year later. Our old painter just handed us a fan deck.”
Questions
Good to know.
Do I need to move my furniture?
No. We move and cover it, and put it back afterward. We only ask that you take down pictures, small items and anything fragile.
Do you supply the paint?
Yes, it is included in the price. We use quality low-odor paint and can match any brand's color. If you already bought paint, we are happy to use it.
How soon can you start?
Usually within two to three weeks. Small jobs like a single room or a few doors can often fit in sooner.
Do you paint exteriors?
No. We only do interiors, so we stay good at it. We are happy to recommend someone we trust for outside work.
How do I pay?
No deposit for jobs under $1,500. Larger jobs are a third upfront for paint, the rest after the walkthrough. Card, check or Zelle.
