Quality Painters of Florida LLC
Quality Painters of Florida is a locally owned painting company covering Gainesville and Alachua County alongside Ocala and Marion County. Owner Kayla Thornton runs the scheduling and staffing, James Thornton walks every project, measures it, writes the itemized estimate and then runs production, and Pamela Olila answers inquiries and confirms estimate windows. Gainesville work centers on interior repaints, cabinet refinishing and rental turnovers, with neighborhood coverage listed for Haile Plantation, Duckpond, Tioga, Jonesville and Newberry. Interior jobs cover walls, ceilings, trim and doors, with furniture masked, floors protected and same-day cleanup. Exterior work starts with pressure washing, caulking, repairs and priming on stucco, block, siding and wood so the finish holds up to Florida sun and storms. Cabinet and island painting is sprayed to a factory smooth finish, with doors removed, labeled and re-hung, at a fraction of the cost of replacement. Commercial projects include offices, medical facilities, retail spaces and apartment community turnovers, with after-hours scheduling available. The company is contracted with Sherwin-Williams and uses those products by default, though it will work with another brand if you prefer. It states it is licensed, insured and locally owned, and it holds a 5.0 rating on Google. Estimates are free, itemized and written on site, with windows available seven days a week from 8 AM to 7 PM.

FAQs
Do you paint in Gainesville, or only Ocala?
Both. The company runs a dedicated Gainesville service page and lists interior repaints, cabinet refinishing and rental turnovers as its Gainesville work. Neighborhoods named on that page are Haile Plantation, Duckpond, Tioga, Jonesville and Newberry. The wider stated service area covers Ocala, Belleview, The Villages, Dunnellon, Silver Springs, Summerfield, Marion Oaks, Alachua County and Marion County.
Is the estimate free?
Yes. The company gives a free, no-pressure estimate that is itemized and written on site, covering scope, products and schedule. It states there are no hidden add-ons. Estimate windows are available seven days a week from 8 AM to 7 PM, and same-day estimates are offered. You can also text a photo of the project to get an estimate on the calendar.
What paint do you use?
The company is contracted with Sherwin-Williams and calls it the paint of choice for Florida sun, humidity and storms, so those products are used by default. If you prefer a different brand or product, the site says it will always go with your preference.
How long does an interior repaint take?
The company says a typical three bedroom interior takes three to five working days, including prep, cutting in, two coats and daily cleanup. A schedule is provided up front.
Do you paint kitchen cabinets?
Yes. Cabinet and island painting is offered for kitchens and bathrooms. Doors are removed, labeled, prepped and sprayed for a smooth, factory quality finish using professional grade coatings, then re-hung. The site describes this as a fraction of the cost of replacing cabinets.
What does the exterior painting process include?
Surfaces are pressure washed, caulked, repaired and primed before painting begins. The crew works on stucco, block, siding and wood, with the preparation aimed at a long-lasting finish that stands up to the Florida climate.
Do you handle commercial and rental properties?
Yes. The company paints offices, medical facilities, retail spaces, apartment communities and other commercial properties, and it lists apartment turnovers and Gainesville rental turnovers among its work. After-hours scheduling is available for commercial projects to keep disruption down.
