The 5 Best Painting Companies Around Frederick

When it comes to refreshing a home’s look, few things are as transformative as a new coat of paint—according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average renovation budget for a paint job ranges from 5%–12% of the total remodel cost, making painting one of the most budget-friendly upgrades to boost curb appeal and interior ambiance. With that in mind, the Best of the Best highlights top-ranked local painting companies that stand apart in craft, customer service and community roots.

Albaugh & Sons

Albaugh & Sons began as a father-and-sons home-improvement trio and has since matured into a full-service remodeling and painting firm serving the greater Frederick area. On their website they emphasize a “meticulous process” for both interior and exterior painting: they plan around weather forecasts, recommend paint types, prep surfaces by removing grime and sanding, and maintain communication from planning through final clean-up. They also hold licensure for home-improvement work. What sets them apart is their combined service offering—they don’t just paint; they also offer remodeling, decks, fences and electrical work, which means clients benefit from a contractor who understands the broader context of a home-improvement project.

Brushes With Flair

Brushes With Flair opened its doors in 2009 and is female-owned — a differentiator in a field often dominated by larger teams. Their website states that they specialize in both interior and exterior painting but put an emphasis on “cabinet painting, fireplace and exterior brick transformations” and say “we love color and texture.” The founder notes that what sets the company apart is their ability to listen to what customers want and work with attention to detail. For homeowners seeking a stylistic refresh rather than a standard repaint, Brushes With Flair brings personality to their craftsmanship.

De Leon Painting Services

Founded in 2006, De Leon Painting Services markets itself as a locally owned firm offering painting, refinishing and epoxy-flooring work across Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia. On their “Our Story” page they describe a team of 16, with each member having between 5 and 35 years’ industry experience. They highlight punctuality, respect for clients’ homes and an “industry-leading warranty.” In addition to traditional painting they cover cabinetry, furniture refinishing, shutters, decking and natural-wood stains. That breadth makes them appealing for clients who want more than walls painted and want fine-tuned specialist work.

RBE LLC / Renovations By Ed

While RBE (Renovations By Ed) is often thought of as a general contractor because of remodels, their listing includes “painting” among the services they provide. Their website says they are licensed, insured and treat every job “like it’s our name on the line.” They focus on craftsmanship, reliable scheduling and good communication, and serve Maryland, Washington, D.C. and Virginia. For homeowners doing a larger renovation rather than a standalone painting job, RBE offers a one-stop solution where painting is part of a broader project timeline.

Frederick Painting & Supply, Inc.

Frederick Painting & Supply traces its roots to 1975, founded by Phil Zimmerman, and emphasizes decades of local experience in Frederick County and surrounding areas. Their residential painting page notes that the owner and team have “more than eight decades of combined experience,” and that they serve both interior and exterior painting, wallpaper and murals, deck and siding staining, historical painting, pressure washing and roof painting. They also offer commercial and industrial coatings. Because of their depth and longevity, they may appeal to homeowners with large estates, historic homes or commercial clients looking for high-capacity service.
