The Empire Difference

Six Reasons Homeowners Choose Empire

Paint quality matters, but the experience also depends on the estimate, preparation, communication, protection, scheduling and accountability surrounding the work.

1

Preparation Is Part of the Plan

Cleaning, scraping, sanding, caulking, patching, priming, masking and protection are matched to the actual surfaces and written scope.

2

Clear Written Estimates

Homeowners can review the included surfaces, expected preparation, products, timing, warranty and payment terms before approving work.

3

Responsive Local Support

Estimator, office and production support give homeowners local points of contact instead of leaving every question with a crew in the field.

4

Organized Project Management

Scheduling, access, weather, room order, drying time, color decisions and project updates are coordinated around the approved plan.

5

Homeowner-Friendly Payment

No deposit is required. Homeowners pay when the agreed project is complete rather than funding the job before work begins.

6

Established Local Accountability

Empire has served Southeast Wisconsin since 2003 and remains connected to the homes, crews and communities behind its reputation.
