Baltimore painters, here since 2016.

Maryland requires home improvement contractors to be licensed. The mechanism is an MHIC registration, which means the state has vetted the contractor and gives you somewhere to go if a job goes wrong. Rise and Prime Painting holds MHIC #120401. Ask any Baltimore painting contractor for their number before you sign, then look it up, because the register's public and the check takes a minute.

A pre-1978 rowhouse changes who is allowed to do the work. Homes built before 1978 can contain lead paint, and disturbing it is federally regulated under the EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting rule, which requires a certified firm and specific work practices. We are an EPA Lead-Safe Certified Firm, so a rowhouse from that era is exactly what this covers.

The cost of painting in Baltimore depends on the house, and Baltimore and Houston price differently, so we don't publish a Baltimore figure online. Send a few photos of the job or ask for a free estimate, and you'll get a written price for your painting project after somebody has walked the property. That's the only number worth signing.

Rise and Prime has worked in Baltimore since December 2016, seven years before Houston opened in 2023. Baltimore is the original market. Ray holds Maryland MHIC #120401 for the work here.

Basement painting is part of our work in Baltimore, where many rowhouses and detached homes have one. Walls, ceilings, stairs and the trim around them all get painted, and we are Epoxy Certified for basement and garage floor coatings as well.

Yes, Rise and Prime can paint a three-story rowhouse facade, because we're aerial lift certified for the height a ladder can't reach. Baltimore rowhouse fronts, Formstone elevations and tall gable ends are all work we take on.

Yes, rental turns are part of our Baltimore work, including turnovers between tenants and exterior work before renters move in. Tell us the turnover date at the walkthrough so the schedule can be planned around it.

Rise and Prime Painting works in Baltimore City and Baltimore County, including Towson, Pikesville, Owings Mills, Catonsville, Essex, White Marsh, Perry Hall, Parkville, Dundalk, Overlea, Rosedale, Nottingham, Middle River and Glen Arm. If you're not sure your address is inside the city or the county, call and ask.

The 3-Year Workmanship Warranty covers failures caused by our workmanship on surfaces we prepared and painted: premature peeling, blistering or flaking from improper application. Those three years start the day the project is completed. It doesn't cover water intrusion, structural movement, substrate failure, existing coatings failing underneath ours, mold or mildew, rust coming through, wear and tear, impact, third-party repairs, wood rot, caulk movement from the building moving, or a manufacturer product defect.

Rise and Prime Painting uses Sherwin-Williams coatings in Baltimore, matched to the surface they go on. That matters more in Baltimore than in most places, because a brick or Formstone facade is masonry, and masonry wants a coating built for a surface that breathes.

Spanish is spoken here in Baltimore as well as in Houston. Ray Gomez speaks it and so do the crews working Baltimore, so the call that books the visit and the day-to-day on your rowhouse can both happen in Spanish. Información en español para Baltimore

Our commercial work in Baltimore covers offices, apartment buildings, common areas and occupied properties, and the aerial lift certification matters as much there as it does on a rowhouse front. Where a project and its scheduling requirements call for it, that work runs after hours or on a weekend. Tell us the access constraints early, since that's what decides a commercial schedule.
