“David from PTL Painting did an excellent job on preparing and painting exterior wood siding in addition to power washing and sealing wood decking. David is very nice to work with! He listened to my concerns and did great work fixing existing problems before beginning the job. Communication was easy and efficient. Also, David has become a trusted partner in future projects. I would highly recommend PTL Painting and Design!”

“David Riley of PTL painting is a top professional and his quality and attention to detail was impeccable. David’s pricing is fair and he was extremely easy to work with. He painted 3 bedrooms for us and skim coated 2 ceilings and made many repairs. But greater than his work - he is truly a good human being and man of God! I would recommend him highly for working in anyone’s home.”

Prep and protection come standard on every job. Your furniture, floors, and belongings are covered before we start and uncovered only when the work is done.

Worried about that couch next to the wall? No problem, we've got that covered…. Literally.
Couches, beds, dining tables, electronics, and everything in between. We drape, mask, and seal off your belongings with canvas drop cloths and plastic film so they come out of the job exactly the way they went in.
It's not the fastest way to prep. It's the right way. And it's included on every single project we take on.

Kitchens Wrapped
Cabinets, counters, and appliances sealed off with plastic and tape before a drop of paint touches them.

Rooms Fully Masked
Floors laid with drop cloths and every surface masked with 3M film so dust and overspray stay where they belong.

Exterior Surfaces Protected
Siding, railings, and trim taped and papered off so only the target surface gets the new finish.
Simple. Transparent. Done Right.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions we hear most. Do not see yours? Reach out and we will help.
We serve Valparaiso, Crown Point, Cedar Lake, Merrillville, Hebron, Wheatfield, DeMotte, and the surrounding Northwest Indiana communities. Not sure if you are in our area? Reach out and we will let you know.
Yes. Every project starts with a free, no-obligation estimate. Call (219) 401-1313 or request one through our contact form and we will get back to you promptly.
Yes. PTL Painting and Design LLC is a fully insured Northwest Indiana painting contractor. We protect your property and our crew on every job.
We stand behind our work with a 3-year warranty on eligible painting projects and a 30-day touch-up guarantee, so any small details are covered after we finish.
We use premium paints from trusted professional brands like Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore. We stick to low- and zero-VOC lines so the odor is minimal and the finish is durable and long-lasting.
It depends on the room and surface. For walls, we typically recommend a matte or eggshell finish for a clean look that hides imperfections. For trim, doors, cabinets, and high-traffic areas, a satin or semi-gloss holds up better and cleans easily. We will walk you through the best choice for each space during your estimate.
Yes. Most of our customers are not sure exactly which color they want, and that is completely normal. We help you think through color choices, sheen, and how the finishes will flow from room to room so you feel confident before we ever pick up a brush.
PTL stands for the values we built this company on. We are happy to share the story when we come out for your estimate. It is personal to the owner and part of what drives the care we put into every job.
PTL is an owner-operated company with a small, trusted crew. The owner is personally involved on your project, so the same standard of care shows up on every job. We scale the crew to fit the scope, so a 3-room interior and a full-home exterior both get the right level of manpower.
The owner has over 10 years of hands-on painting experience across homes and businesses in Northwest Indiana. PTL Painting and Design LLC was officially founded in 2024, but the craftsmanship behind it was built over a decade.
Timelines vary by scope. A single room can take a day or two, while a full exterior or whole-home interior may take a week or more. We give you a clear schedule up front and stick to it, and we tell you the crew size and expected duration before we start.
Yes. We offer night, weekend, and after-hours scheduling to keep your business running with minimal disruption.
We ask that you remove fragile items and wall hangings from the work area. We handle furniture protection, surface prep, and full cleanup so you do not have to worry about a thing.
We follow a clear four-step process: a free on-site or virtual estimate, careful surface prep and protection, professional application, and a final walkthrough with you to make sure every detail meets our standard. You know what is happening at every stage, so there are no surprises.
Prep is where a lasting finish starts. We clean, scrape, sand, fill cracks, caulk gaps, and prime as needed so the paint bonds to a sound surface. Skipping prep is the number one reason paint fails early, so we never cut corners here.
For interior projects, you do not need to stay home the entire time, but we do need access at the start and for the final walkthrough. Many customers go about their day while we work. We are fully insured and treat your home with respect.
We cover floors with drop cloths, wrap furniture in plastic, mask trim and fixtures with professional-grade tape and film, and isolate the work area. The protection photos in our gallery show the level of care we use on every job.
During peak season (late spring through fall) we book a few weeks out, while interior projects can often be scheduled sooner. Reach out as early as you can and we will do our best to fit your timeline.
Exterior painting needs dry conditions, so we watch the forecast closely and reschedule around rain, high humidity, or extreme temperatures. We will keep you updated and only paint when conditions give you a finish that lasts.
Yes. Your estimate includes the expected crew size and number of working days. Once we start, we stay on the job until it is done right. We do not bounce between multiple projects and leave yours sitting unfinished.
Our 3-year warranty covers peeling, blistering, or excessive fading on eligible interior and exterior painting projects that result from our workmanship or materials. If a covered issue comes up, we come back and fix it at no cost to you.
After we finish, you have 30 days to live with the work and let us know if any small detail needs attention. We will return to take care of touch-ups at no charge, because the job is not done until you are happy with it.
The warranty does not cover damage from flooding, settling, moisture intrusion behind the paint, or structural movement, and it does not apply to surfaces we did not prep or paint. We explain what is and is not covered during your estimate so there are no surprises later.
