Interior & exterior painting
Whole rooms and whole houses, plus the fiddly parts — trim, moulding, doors and window frames.
Painting the south side since 1992, still owner-run. Craig prices the job, and Craig is on it — including the ones somebody else started.
Rooms, outside, or a repair.

Why people call him
Thirty-four years in one city, and the reviews keep landing on the same two things: he does the work himself, and he will take on a job somebody else already made a mess of.
“He does such a wonderful job on interior and exterior. He fixes other people’s mistakes and makes it even better than it was before with his kind of work. I can only pick 5 stars on here but I give him a 10!”
Alex M., Google review
“Stand up guy and his word is as good as his work. Highly recommend!”

What we do
Whole rooms and whole houses, plus the fiddly parts — trim, moulding, doors and window frames.
Decks, porches, fences and siding stained or re-stained, so the timber stops greying off and starts matching the house again.
Holes, cracks and water damage made good and finished flat before any paint goes near them.
Sprayed lacquer and specialty stain work — cabinets, built-ins and finishes a roller cannot do.
How it goes
Free estimate. Say what the rooms or the outside of the house need and you get a number.
Repairs and prep first. The reason a job lasts is almost always what happened before the first coat.
Cut in, finished and the site left clean — no tape and no drop sheets left behind.
About
Kimberlin Painting has been painting in Indianapolis since 1992, owner ran and operated. The man who quotes the job is the man who paints it, which is why the estimate and the finished work tend to be the same thing.
The work is interior and exterior painting, deck and fence staining, drywall repair, and the specialty stain and lacquer spray work that most painting outfits will not take on. A fair amount of it is putting right what a previous crew left behind.

Questions
