How the bigger projects are priced
Exterior: $4,200 – $17,500
A 1,800 sq ft ranch with good siding sits near the bottom; a 4,500 sq ft two-story with heavy prep, lots of trim and a premium line sits near the top. Stories, siding type and prep drive the number more than square footage alone.
Cabinets: $1,700 – $8,000+
Priced by the count of doors, drawers and boxes. A small galley kitchen or bathroom vanity is at the low end; a large kitchen with 60+ pieces, an island and a color change is at the top.
What is never in the price
Surprise change orders. Once we measure and you sign, the number is the number — unless you add scope. That promise is in writing on every estimate.
The prices are real. So is the work.

Questions homeowners ask before booking
Still wondering about something? Call (317) 850-8212 — a real person answers.
Why a range instead of an exact price?
Because prep, ceiling height, color change and trim count change the work. After we measure in person you get one fixed written number — the ranges tell you where it will land.
Do you charge for the estimate?
No. In-home estimates and color consultation are free, with no obligation.
Can I get a price without a visit?
Yes — the Instant Estimate tool gives you a real range in 30 seconds. The in-home visit turns it into a fixed price.
Ready to transform your home?
Tell us about your project and we will call within 2 business hours to set up a visit. No pressure, no obligation — just a fixed written price you can plan around.
