Home Areas Burlington

Community Works provides full-service residential & commercial painting across Vermont interior, exterior, cabinets, drywall, plaster, and restoration work. Our lead painter has over 25 years of experience and approaches every project with a prep-first methodology: assess, patch, sand, prime, caulk, tape then paint.

We use Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams products exclusively because premium paint on properly prepared surfaces is what makes a paint job last. We send daily photo updates on every project so you can see exactly what’s happening, and we provide references from every completed project not a curated handful.

Pricing & Process FAQs

How do your estimates work?

We provide free estimates within 48 hours of your request. For most projects, we can begin estimating from photos you send us, then confirm with an on-site visit if needed. Every estimate includes a detailed written proposal with clear scope, pricing, and timeline. No obligation.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes. We collect a 50% deposit when you approve the proposal and sign our project agreement. The remaining 50% is due upon project completion and your satisfaction. This is standard industry practice and protects both parties.

What areas do you serve?

We serve South Burlington, Burlington, Essex, Williston, Shelburne, Charlotte, Hinesburg, Stowe, Waterbury, South Royalton, and surrounding communities throughout central Vermont. We stack projects by geography to keep scheduling efficient.

Are your crews background-checked?

Yes. Background-checked crews on every project. Every person who enters your home has passed a background check. No exceptions.

Do you have references?

References available from every completed project. Not a curated handful, every single job. Ask us and we’ll connect you with past clients in your area.

How far in advance should I book?

It depends on the season. During peak exterior season (May–August), we recommend booking 4–6 weeks in advance. Interior projects during winter have more flexibility. Call us and we’ll give you an honest timeline for your specific project.
