What our customers say
Don't go anywhere else, this is THE BEST!!!!!!!
Fortville is really two towns in one for a painter. There is the real, walkable downtown with older character homes around Main and Church Streets, and there is the ring of newer subdivisions filling in around it as the town grows. Those are two different jobs: the careful prep an older home needs, and the first real repaint a newer build is due for. We do both.
We are Heritage Painting, based in Tipton and working down into Fortville and across Hancock County. We are a residential painting company first, and we focus on four things: exterior painting, interior painting, kitchen cabinets, and commercial work. On every one we do the slow part first. Prep. It is what separates a paint job that lasts from one that does not.
Why we serve Fortville
Fortville is a short drive southeast of our Tipton shop, so we are a local option here, not a chain sending a crew through.
The split housing is what makes local knowledge matter. An older home near downtown has wood siding and trim that needs scraping and priming back to sound material. A newer subdivision home has a thin builder coat that has started to chalk and fade. Ever notice how a downtown Victorian and a ten-year-old build fail in completely different ways? They do, and they need completely different prep. We do not run the same playbook on both.
Exterior painting in Fortville
This is our flagship work, and Fortville gives us the full range: historic wood siding downtown and faded builder exteriors in the subdivisions.
Here is an honest opinion. Prep is most of the job. On older wood, that means real scraping and priming. On a newer home, it means washing off the chalk and prepping the failing spots so the new coats bond. Either way we power wash, prep, prime, and paint with top-tier products from Sherwin Williams, PPG, and Benjamin Moore, matched to the surface and exposure.
Before we paint, we give you two free virtual renderings so you can see the color on your actual house first. And if your home needs less than a full repaint, we will tell you, whether it is an older home or a newer one.
Interior painting in Fortville
Inside, we handle everything from older plaster and trim in the downtown homes to full repaints and color updates in the newer builds. We move and cover your furniture, protect your floors, and keep a clean site every single day.
We patch the cracks, dings, and nail pops first, so the finished wall reads smooth instead of showing every flaw under fresh paint. You get a real schedule before we start.
Color giving you trouble? Every Heritage project includes a free consultation with our in-house color consultant, Emily King, who holds a degree in interior design. She helps you pick a color that works in your room and your light before any paint goes on.
Kitchen cabinet painting in Fortville
This is one we feel strongly about. For most Fortville kitchens, painting your cabinets is the smarter money.
New cabinets run fifteen to thirty-five thousand dollars once you count installation. Painting your existing cabinets with us usually runs between $4,200 and $5,800. Same kitchen footprint, brand-new look, a fraction of the cost.
How do we get a finish that holds up on cabinets? We do not brush and roll them in your kitchen. We take the doors and drawer fronts offsite and spray them with a KCMA-certified cabinet system, the same standard cabinet manufacturers use. Each surface is sanded, cleaned, and sprayed, and each step is done three times. A typical kitchen is 120 to 150 hours over three to five days. The result is smooth, hard, and even. We can paint over laminate too.
House Painting
Commercial painting in Fortville
We are not only a home painter. We handle commercial work around Fortville: offices, retail and storefronts, warehouses, and the small businesses along the downtown stretch and the growing edges of town.
A business cannot shut down for a paint crew, so we work around you with after-hours and weekend scheduling, custom maintenance plans, and multi-building coordination. You get a dedicated project manager and weekly progress updates.
What to expect from your Fortville painting project
Hiring a painter should not feel like a gamble. Here is exactly how a Heritage project runs in Fortville, start to finish.
It begins with a free, in-person estimate. We come to your Fortville home, look at the actual surfaces, and give you a written, itemized quote. No guessing over the phone, no vague ballpark. You see the line items, so you know what you are paying for.
Once you are on the schedule, a dedicated project manager owns your job. You are not left wondering what is happening or when. We send weekly progress updates at a minimum, and you can reach a real person instead of a call center.
On the job, our Fortville painters protect first and paint second. We move and cover furniture, mask trim and floors, and prep every surface properly before a drop of color goes on. On a historic downtown home that means careful scraping and priming; on a newer subdivision build it means washing off the builder-coat chalk first. At the end of each day we clean up, because we treat your home the way we would want ours treated.
When the painting is done, we walk the whole project with you. If anything is not right, we fix it before we call it finished. That final walk-through is part of every job.
Want to know why we work this way? Because the cheapest quote rarely stays the cheapest once you count the redo. House painting in Fortville done right the first time, with real prep and a careful crew, costs less over the life of your home than a fast job you pay for again in two years. That is the standard we hold on every Fortville painting project, home or business.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work on the older homes downtown?
Yes, including wood siding, trim detail, and the careful prep historic homes need. We also serve the newer subdivisions around town.
My home is newer. Does it need repainting already?
Often the exterior does. Builder paint is one thin coat, and a decade of Indiana weather wears it through. We will tell you honestly what yours needs.
How much does it cost to paint kitchen cabinets?
For most kitchens we paint, it runs between $4,200 and $5,800, compared to fifteen to thirty-five thousand dollars for full replacement. We give you an exact, itemized price after we see your kitchen.
Do you help with color choices?
Yes, and it is free. Our in-house color consultant works with you on color, and for exteriors we provide two free virtual renderings so you can see it on your home first.
