Hiring a residential painter is different from hiring a commercial painting crew. Your home is where your family lives. The people walking through your front door need to be vetted, professional, and held to a standard that most painting companies simply don't enforce.
A New Leaf Painting Contractors has specialized exclusively in residential homes across Northeast Florida since 2001. We don't split focus between commercial warehouses and your living room — every system we've built, every product we specify, and every protocol we follow is designed specifically for the residential homeowner. That specialization shows in every project. If you're searching for the best interior painters near you or need a fully licensed painting contractor near Jacksonville, we're the company Northeast Florida homeowners call first.
Jacksonville's residential housing stock is diverse — from 1960s concrete block homes in Mandarin to new construction stucco in Nocatee to coastal wood-frame estates in Atlantic Beach. Our residential crews have painted them all. Here is how we approach each home type.
These are the standards we hold on every residential project. Not some projects. Every project.
Every A New Leaf residential project starts with a fully itemized written contract. Exact product name, sheen, coat count, prep scope, timeline, and fixed total price. The number you agree to is the number on your final invoice — no change orders, no surprises.
Every painter who enters your home has passed a full background check. No subcontractors, no rotating day laborers, no strangers. The same crew from start to finish — led by a dedicated Crew Leader who provides daily updates throughout your project.
We work in Jacksonville's most demanding residential HOA communities — Sawgrass, Eagle Harbor, Nocatee, Julington Creek, Deerwood, and OakLeaf Plantation. We handle color documentation and architectural review submissions as standard.
We exclusively apply Sherwin-Williams® Emerald and Benjamin Moore® Aura on every residential project. These are the two highest-performing product lines available — engineered specifically for Florida's heat, humidity, and coastal conditions.
pH-balanced pressure washing, stucco crack injection, elastomeric sealing, moisture-managed scheduling — every prep step is tailored to Florida's residential climate demands. Skipped prep is the single biggest reason paint fails early in Jacksonville.
If the finish on your home isn't flawless, your paint is 100% free. Delivered in writing on every residential project. No fine print, no arguments, no expiration. Read the full guarantee →
From full interior repaints to exterior transformations, cabinet refinishing, stucco remediation, and specialty coatings — A New Leaf handles every residential painting scope on your property. All work performed by background-checked residential specialists using premium products exclusively.
We paint the homes Jacksonville families are proud of — from master-planned communities in St. Johns County to historic neighborhoods on the Northside to oceanfront estates on the First Coast beaches.
Luxury residential properties where salt air demands elastomeric coatings, HOA color compliance is strictly enforced, and the finish quality reflects the value of the home. We know these standards inside and out.
Northeast Florida's fastest-growing residential communities. New construction and resale homes where both interior upgrade projects and exterior repaints are in constant demand from homeowners who want more than builder-grade quality.
Riverfront residential estates where humidity management, proper stucco prep, and premium product selection are the difference between a finish that lasts three years and one that lasts twelve.
Executive gated residential communities with large custom homes. Our crews complete full interior and exterior residential repaints throughout this corridor regularly — clean, professional, and on schedule.
One of Jacksonville's premier family residential communities. Established homes ranging from stucco to wood-frame to Hardie plank — each requiring different residential prep protocols and product specifications.
Residential properties within a mile of the Atlantic where salt air corrosion is relentless. We apply elastomeric barrier coatings on all coastal residential exteriors as standard — not a premium add-on.
A large master-planned residential community with active HOAs. Our crews work here regularly — fast turnaround, full HOA documentation, and consistent residential quality on every project.
Coastal barrier island residential estates where wind-driven rain, aggressive salt exposure, and strict community standards demand the most durable residential coating systems available anywhere in Northeast Florida.
Every A New Leaf residential proposal is fully itemized — exact product names, sheens, coat count, and prep scope. Fixed-price contracts mean the number on your estimate is the number on your final invoice. No change orders, no surprise material costs, no last-minute add-ons.
🔒 Fixed-price residential contracts. No surprise charges — ever.
"We recently hired A New Leaf Painting to paint the interior of our home. Billy and Mike arrived at 7:00am each morning, cleaned up after themselves, moved furniture for us, and even fixed our front door that had been dragging without being asked. I love how our home looks and I will definitely refer the company to friends."
"Thomas Drake came out personally for the estimate, explained exactly what would be done and why, and the crew executed it perfectly. Our stucco home in Ponte Vedra had significant cracking that two other painters just painted over. A New Leaf actually fixed it. Three years later, still looks immaculate."
"Our HOA in Nocatee required specific color documentation for our exterior project. A New Leaf handled the entire process — colors, documentation, submission — and we passed the architectural review first try. They clearly know how to work in residential HOA communities."
"After having several rooms painted, I decided to have A New Leaf return to paint the rest of the interior of my home. I'm very pleased with the results. I had four contractors give me bids and they were the only one who measured the room and had specifics in the contract."

Residential painters specialize in the specific challenges of occupied homes — protecting furniture, managing noise and disruption for families, understanding HOA requirements in residential communities, and applying the correct finishes for interior living surfaces. Commercial painters are geared toward large-scale, unoccupied spaces where speed matters more than residential detail. A New Leaf specializes exclusively in residential homes — every system, every product, and every protocol we use is designed specifically for the homeowner, not the warehouse manager.
Residential interior painting starts around $1,200 for a standard room and scales with square footage, ceiling height, and surface condition. Exterior residential repaints for a standard Jacksonville home start around $2,995. Cabinet refinishing starts at $1,800. Every A New Leaf residential estimate is fully itemized — exact product, sheen, coat count, and prep scope — so you know exactly what you're getting before you commit. See our full residential pricing guide.
Yes — and this is non-negotiable at A New Leaf. Our Sanctuary Protocol covers every residential project: drop cloths on all floors, furniture moved and covered with protective sheeting, trim and fixtures masked, doors and hardware protected. We return everything to its original position when the project is complete and leave your home cleaner than we found it. Every day. Not just on the last day.
Yes — every single crew member. A New Leaf is Google Guaranteed, which requires independent background verification for every employee. We also never use subcontractors or rotating day laborers. You get the same crew, start to finish, led by a dedicated Crew Leader who provides daily updates throughout your residential project. You always know who is in your home and why.
We work on every residential home type in Northeast Florida — stucco homes (Jacksonville's most common exterior substrate), Hardie plank and fiber cement siding, wood-frame homes, coastal and oceanfront properties, luxury estate homes in HOA communities, and new construction. Each substrate requires different preparation protocols and product specifications. Our residential crews have painted every type across 5,000+ completed projects in Northeast Florida.
Yes. We regularly work in Jacksonville's most demanding residential HOA communities — Sawgrass, Eagle Harbor, Nocatee, Julington Creek Plantation, Deerwood, Bartram Park, and OakLeaf Plantation. We provide the technical color documentation needed for HOA architectural review committees and can assist with color palette selection and submission. Our residential crews are familiar with gate access procedures throughout Northeast Florida's gated communities.
A single interior room takes one to two days. A whole-home interior repaint for an average Jacksonville residence — 1,800 to 2,500 square feet — takes three to five days. A full exterior residential repaint takes three to five days for a standard single-family home. Larger homes or those requiring significant stucco remediation may take five to seven days. We provide a clear written timeline before starting and stick to it.
