Painting Services in Austin
Racing Drywall & Painting provides professional painting services in Austin for residential and commercial spaces. Our crews deliver clean lines, durable finishes, and dependable timelines, whether you need a single room refreshed or an entire building repainted.
Residential painting
We handle interior and exterior house painting with meticulous surface preparation and premium coatings. Indoors, we protect floors and furnishings, caulk gaps, lightly sand glossy areas, and prime where needed to promote adhesion. You’ll get guidance on sheens suited to kitchens, baths, trim, doors, and high-traffic spaces. For exteriors, we wash surfaces, remove failing paint, spot-prime bare areas, and apply weather-appropriate systems designed for Texas heat and sun.
Commercial painting
From offices and retail suites to multi-tenant buildings, we plan around your schedule to minimize downtime. Our team sets clear phases, maintains tidy work zones, and delivers consistent color across large surfaces. We can color-match brand palettes and coordinate off-hours or weekend work when required.
