For designers and builders

Boards you can hand to a client

Designers send us the palette and the room. We loan boards in those colors for the client meeting, send a spec sheet for each finish, and write the estimate wall by wall so you can pass it along.

  • Boards loaned in your palette for a client meeting

  • A spec sheet for each finish: coats, base, sheen, cure time

  • An estimate with every wall on its own line

  • One contact, Estefania, for the whole job

For the trade

Can designers borrow boards for a client meeting?

Yes. Ask Estefania for a loan of boards in your palette and a spec sheet for each finish. We keep a list of what is out, and we ask for the boards back after the meeting.

What does a written estimate state?

Each wall and its size, the repairs we expect, the finish and the number of coats, the colors, the days on site, the payment schedule and what is not included. The How pricing works page shows a good one next to a vague one.

Do I need HOA approval or a permit?

Interior finishes rarely do. Exterior limewash or a new color on a stucco wall often needs your HOA's approval, and we can supply a sample board and a photo for the request. Check with your HOA before booking exterior work.

Who on the crew speaks Spanish?

Ariadna, Florencio, Azucena, Estefania and Macario speak Spanish and English. Alana writes and speaks English. Tell us your language at the first call.

Have a client with a wall?

Send the palette and the room. We will find a day for the boards.
