Cover Pro Painting is a licensed, bonded, and insured painting company serving Mercer Island with interior and exterior painting, rot repair, siding replacement, and carpentry handled by one team. Alex founded the company at age 20, has run the business for over 13 years, and personally oversees each project from our home base in Edgewood. We're EPA Lead-Safe (RRP) Certified, which matters on an island where much of the housing stock predates 1978.

Licensing and insurance aren't paperwork details in Washington State, they're your protection if something goes wrong. Every exterior project we complete carries a 3-year workmanship warranty, and we use premium paint products.

Residential Painting and Repair Services on Mercer Island

We cover the full range of residential painting and commercial work on the island, plus the repairs that often come with it. Whether your project is a single room or your entire home, surface prep is part of every scope we write, because paint only lasts as long as what's underneath it.

Interior Painting: Walls, Ceilings, Trim, and Doors

We paint walls, ceilings, trim, and doors to refresh your home's interior while protecting the surfaces underneath. With nearly half of Mercer Island homes carrying four or more bedrooms, interiors here often mean real square footage, so we clean, patch, sand, block stains, and prime before a brush touches a wall.

Exterior Painting: Siding, Trim, Windows, and Decks

Exterior painting protects siding, trim, window casings, doors, and decks from weather, moisture, and wear, and it's the fastest way to restore your home's curb appeal. Power washing comes first to clear dirt and mold, then we scrape peeling paint, sand, caulk open joints, and spot-prime every exterior surface before coating. On the island that usually means wood siding and trim that have absorbed decades of Puget Sound rain. Preparing a house properly is the time consuming part, and it makes the difference between a finish that holds and one that fails early.

Rot Repair, Siding Replacement, and Carpentry

When prep uncovers soft trim or failed siding, we repair it with the same crew, so there's no waiting while a separate carpenter fits you in. Rot repair restores structural stability and protects long-term property value, and new paint over a soft board simply hides the problem.

Deck Staining, Millwork, and Cabinet Refinishing

Wood staining protects decks and fences while bringing out the natural grain instead of covering it. Cabinet refinishing, bathroom vanities, and millwork painting can refresh a kitchen without a full remodel, and all of it depends on degreasing, sanding, and priming done properly.

Commercial Painting for Condos, Apartments, and HOA Properties

We paint for homeowners and businesses alike, including condominiums, apartments, HOA properties, offices, and community buildings. Mercer Island's 76-acre Town Center holds nearly all of the island's multifamily housing, so we schedule that work around residents, tenants, and access.

Why Mercer Island Homeowners Choose Our House Painters

You get a founder-led team with a direct stake in the result, not a rotating crew. Alex personally oversees each project, and our painters collectively bring over 100 years of combined experience. A journeyman painter earns that title after a three to four year apprenticeship, and the house painters on your project bring that trade training to cut lines, caulking, and how a repair blends into the surrounding surface. We arrive with our own tools and materials, and keeping an extremely professional job site is the baseline here, not an extra.

More than half of Mercer Island's housing stock dates from roughly 1950 through 1979, and the state's historic preservation office has documented notable mid-century houses here from the 1950s into the early 1970s. The challenge with homes of that era is layered coatings, aging trim, and pre-1978 lead considerations, all of which we handle under our EPA Lead-Safe certification.

Our proof is checkable. We're licensed, bonded, and insured in Washington State, we back exterior work with a 3-year workmanship warranty, and our official site reports 100+ verified 5-star Google reviews. We've completed hundreds of projects across the region, and we're glad to walk you through pictures of past projects so you can judge the quality yourself. Most of our work now comes from repeat clients and referrals.

Every project includes a free color consultation, and we offer 0% APR financing plus 10% off for first-time customers. See our full interior and exterior painting services or call 206-222-0435.

How Your Mercer Island Paint Job Works, Start to Finish

  1. Free estimate and walkthrough. We walk the property with you, check substrate condition, and look at access and staging before we quote anything.
  2. Transparent written scope. Your estimate names the surfaces included, the prep level, any repairs, the number of coats, access equipment, furniture and landscaping protection, cleanup, warranty coverage, and a schedule window. Cost depends on your specific project, so we don't publish fixed rates.
  3. Surface prep and repairs. Furniture gets moved and covered, surfaces get washed so paint can adhere, loose paint is scraped, cracks and seams are caulked, taping is done with the patience that detail deserves, and repaired areas are primed before finish coats.
  4. Finish coats, cleanup, and final walkthrough. We apply premium products, clean the site daily, and walk the finished work with you before we call it done. Clear communication start to finish is what keeps the process stress free.

What Painting a Mercer Island Home Actually Involves

Older housing, careful prep. Almost two-thirds of the island's housing is detached single-family, much of it built in the postwar decades. Mercerwood, the island's first major postwar development, and First Hill, built largely through the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, both mix original houses with replacements and additions. That means two homes on the same street can need very different prep.

Terrain and access. The City's environmental mapping includes steep-slope, erosion, potential-slide, landslide, and wind-exposure layers, and neighborhoods like Island Point sit on elevated south-island terrain. We settle ladder, lift, and staging plans during the estimate rather than discovering them on day one.

Permits. Mercer Island lists painting and nonstructural wood siding and vinyl siding as building-permit-exempt finish work, so a standard repaint usually involves no permit at all. We serve the island from Edgewood and plan each project around its access, weather, and site conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

These are the most frequently asked questions we hear before a project starts, so you know what to expect.

There's no fixed price we can publish, because scope drives cost: home size, stories, surface condition, repairs, trim complexity, and prep level all change the number. We give you a transparent estimate before work begins, and 0% APR financing and 10% off for first-time customers are available.

A few tips: confirm the company is licensed, bonded, and insured in Washington State, ask about EPA Lead-Safe certification on any pre-1978 house, read the written scope line by line, and ask who will be on site each day. A professional crew answers all four without hesitating.

We repair it ourselves, so you never have to hire a second contractor mid-project. Before any repair work proceeds, we show you what we found and give you a revised scope and a clear number. Coating over rot only buys a season or two.

Yes. We're EPA Lead-Safe (RRP) Certified, which applies when painted surfaces are disturbed on qualifying pre-1978 properties. Given that more than half of Mercer Island's homes date from about 1950 through 1979, we have that conversation early and plan containment and cleanup into the scope.

Drier stretches, often June through September, are easiest to schedule, but we build weather flexibility into every exterior timeline and never coat a damp substrate. Worth knowing: the City's October 1 through April 1 wet-season restriction on hazard sites applies to clearing, grading, filling, and foundation work, not to painting.

Yes, island-wide, from Roanoke and East Seattle down through Mercer Island Estates, and we work across the greater Seattle-Tacoma region from Edgewood. Don't see your city listed? Contact us to confirm service availability.
