By Gladiators Painting – Trusted Local Pros

Whether you’re updating your kitchen, giving your home's exterior a fresh look, or tackling a full interior repaint, understanding the professional painting process helps ensure a smooth, stress-free experience. At Gladiators Painting, we pride ourselves on transparency, quality, and local expertise across Omaha, Nebraska.

Here’s what you can expect from our start-to-finish painting process – so you’re never left guessing.

📝 Step 1: Free Consultation & Estimate

It all starts with a free, no-obligation consultation. We come to your Omaha-area home, assess your project, and discuss your goals, color ideas, and timeframe.

What’s included:

  • Walkthrough of the areas to be painted
  • Surface and condition evaluation
  • Color and product recommendations
  • A detailed, written estimate

Pro Tip: Our estimates are fully transparent—no hidden costs, just honest pricing.

🎯 Step 2: Project Planning & Scheduling

Once you’re ready to move forward, we’ll schedule your project around your convenience and our weather-optimized calendar for Omaha’s seasonal conditions.

We’ll also finalize:

  • Paint colors and sheens (we often recommend Sherwin-Williams products)
  • Start date and estimated timeline
  • Special prep needs (e.g., drywall repair, cabinet removal, etc.)

🧹 Step 3: Prep Work (It’s Half the Battle)

Prep is the foundation of a flawless paint job. Our team handles everything with care:

  • Moving or covering furniture
  • Protecting floors, counters, and fixtures
  • Sanding, patching, and caulking as needed
  • Priming surfaces for durability and clean color coverage

Did You Know? Omaha’s changing humidity can impact paint adhesion—our surface prep accounts for that.

🖌️ Step 4: Professional Painting

Here’s where the magic happens. We apply premium, top-rated paints (typically Sherwin-Williams) with skill and precision.

  • Two-coat application for lasting coverage
  • Brush, roll, or spray depending on surface and detail
  • Crisp cut-ins and clean lines
  • Daily jobsite cleanup and progress updates

Whether interior or exterior, we treat your property like it’s our own.

🧽 Step 5: Final Touches & Cleanup

After the final coat dries, we:

  • Inspect all surfaces for touch-ups
  • Remove all coverings and clean up the site
  • Reinstall fixtures or hardware if removed
  • Walk through the project with you to ensure satisfaction

Step 6: Quality Check & Satisfaction Guarantee

Before we call the job complete, we walk the space with you and confirm that everything meets your expectations. We’re not done until you’re 100% happy.

We also provide:

  • Maintenance tips for your freshly painted space
  • Warranty information
  • A follow-up check-in after the job
