What good prep includes
Good prep means scraping failed paint, patching holes, sanding and caulking gaps. Bare wood gets primed before the first coat. Prep is where bids differ most, so ask what’s in the price.
Older homes and lead paint
In Spokane, about 68% of homes were built before 1980. EPA says about three-quarters of U.S. homes built before 1978 still contain some lead-based paint, and its Renovation, Repair and Painting rule covers paid work that disturbs paint in them. If your house is older than that, tell the contractor before work starts.
Exterior timing
Most nights from November through March drop to freezing at NOAA’s Spokane Felts Field and Coeur d’Alene stations (1991-2020 normals). Outside paint is a warm-season job, from late spring through early fall, and the label on the can gives the minimum temperature. Ask how landscaping and windows will be protected.
Cabinets and coats
Cabinet painting needs degreasing, sanding and a bonding primer, then a hard-wearing finish. Ask how many coats are included; bare wood or a big color change usually needs primer plus two coats of paint.
Inside the house
Ask whether moving furniture is in the price, because it is often listed separately.
Recent work
When is the best time to paint outside?
Late spring through early fall, when the air stays above the minimum temperature on the paint label.
Do I need a permit to paint my house?
Painting itself usually doesn't need one. In a house built before 1978, the EPA's lead rule can apply to paid work that disturbs paint.
Do painters move furniture?
Sometimes. Ask whether it is in the price.

We cannot recommend Elite Construction enough. Sergey and his team (Elijah, Paul, and Sawyer) are top notch and were recommended to us from a friend. They are trustworthy, professional, amazing craftsmen, and pay so much attention to detail. Beyond that they are genuinely nice guys. They built us a beautiful new deck with a gable over part of it. It fits our house so nicely and looks like it's always been there. They also built us a custom fireplace/entertainment wall with privacy wall on both sides. It's just beautiful. They also installed a new slider with windows on either side and a new glass door. I will recommend them to everybody doing any home construction project.

You can definitely tell this company is about quality with the work they put in. They removed our old bathtub shower and installed just a shower. They made sure that the shower was going to be stable and level and took extra steps to ensure that in our really old house. Only thing I would say that could be improved is the communication on timelines between each step. But we will definitely be using Elite for future projects. I love my new shower!

Serg and his team did an amazing job updating our deck! They were efficient, timely, and did quality work. Everyone who worked at our site were respectful, kind and professional - we would highly recommend their business and services!

Sergey and his team did a wonderful job on our basement remodel. He comminuted with us every step of the way and updated us about any delays or progress. His team was professional and very skilled. In the bathroom, we had a fully tiled steam shower installed that is spectacular. There are numerous custom carpentry projects and overall the basement is better than we anticipated. Sergey went above and beyond for us and I wholeheartedly recommend elite construction for projects big or small.

Sergey and his crew did a phenomenal job on our river house in St Maries. Even though they had to travel and bring supplies with them, they secured our foundation so that it will last, replaced our old deck with new Trex decking, and remodeled our master shower. We thought all of this would take the whole summer, but Elite got it handled in under 7 weeks. We are thrilled with the results and not only will ask Elite to come back, but have been recommending them to everyone in the area.

Elite Construction did an excellent job on the repair/remodel and siding of the front of our house. Eli, Roman, Daniel and the rest of Sergey's crew were very professional, friendly and very hardworking. They always showed up on time and communicated what they would be working on that day. After the project was completed the job site was left spotless with no nails or debris in sight. They were also able to start and complete the job before our scheduled start date which was an added bonus. I will continue to recommend Elite Construction to my family and friends and will absolutely hire them again for future construction projects.

We had a wonderful experience with Elite Construction from beginning to end. Sergey detailed every step, work began when scheduled and consulted us for things that came up unexpectedly. The workers were respectful of our home, and were well prepared to keep dust and debris from spreading throughout the house. We are very happy with the end result and would and have, highly recommend them for future projects.

We have hired Elite Construction & Remodeling several times for projects at our home and we'll keep doing it based off of Sergei and his crew's craftsmanship and professionalism. The projects have ranged from small to big and each one is done with care and in a timely manner. Our most recent collaboration with Elite was for our kitchen remodel and the process was smooth and the end product is outstanding. It looks smashing! The team did a great job keeping us updated on the timeline, how the work was coming along and arrived consistently each day when they said they would show up. As the kitchen remodel wrapped up, we told them that it would just be a matter of time until we find something else for them to do and we'd give them a call. I'm glad we found Elite to help us improve our home.
