What We Do
One crew for the whole job:
prep, patch, paint, cleanup.
Most of our work comes from homeowners who were tired of chasing separate contractors. We handle the drywall and the finish, so nothing gets blamed on the other guy.
01
Interior Painting
Walls, ceilings, trim, doors and built-ins finished with clean lines and fully protected floors and furniture.
02
Exterior Painting
Pressure washing, scraping, priming and premium coatings that hold up to Virginia summers and winters.
03
Drywall & Repair
Hanging, finishing, patching, water-damage repair and texture matching that disappears into the wall.
04
Cabinet Refinishing
Kitchen and bath cabinets sanded, sealed and sprayed for a factory-smooth, hard-wearing finish.
05
Deck & Fence Staining
Cleaning, sanding and staining that brings tired wood back and keeps moisture where it belongs.
06
Commercial Work
Offices, storefronts and rental turnovers painted on schedule, after hours when you need it.
Why people Work with us
A local craftsman,
not a franchise.
Percy Dillard has been painting Central Virginia homes for over thirty years. Much of his business has been built through referrals and repeat customers, which is why the details matter so much.

Prep is most of the work
Washing, scraping, sanding, caulking and priming. That's what makes a finish last a decade.
You deal with Percy
The person who quotes your job is on site running it. No rotating crews.
We show up on time
Start dates we actually keep, and a straight answer when weather changes the schedule.
Honest, itemized pricing
A written estimate that spells out surfaces, coats and materials. The number doesn't move.
Daily cleanup
Tools packed, trash out, walkways clear. You keep living in your house while we work.
Insured and careful
We're insured, and we protect your property: floors covered, furniture masked, dust kept to a minimum with plastic sheeting where it's needed.

Questions
Straight answers, up front.
Don't see yours? Call and ask. You'll get Percy or someone on the crew, not a script.
How much does painting cost?
Every home is different, so we price by the actual work in front of us: square footage, surface condition, prep needed and paint selection. Estimates are always free, written and itemized so you can see exactly what you're paying for.
Are you insured?
Yes. Percy Dillard Painting & Drywall is insured, and we're happy to provide proof of insurance before we start your project.
What paint do you use?
We use professional-quality paints and coatings selected for the surface, project, and desired finish. If you have a preferred brand or product, let us know when requesting your estimate.
Do you handle drywall repair before painting?
We do: nail pops, cracks, water damage, popcorn ceiling removal and full drywall replacement. It's all done in-house, so there's one crew and one point of contact.
How do you protect my home while you work?
We cover floors, mask furniture, and use plastic sheeting where needed to keep dust to a minimum. Crews clean up at the end of each day, including vacuuming, so you're not living in a construction zone longer than necessary.
