Services
Painting & Coatings
Interior and exterior painting for homes, offices, retail spaces, and multi-unit properties. Surface prep, clean lines, and long-lasting finishes are non-negotiable.
Services include:
• Interior painting
• Exterior painting
• Commercial repainting
• Protective and specialty coatings
• Surface prep and repairs
Venetian Plaster Finishes
Coastal Color Works specializes in Venetian plaster and custom decorative plaster finishes for residential and commercial interiors. These hand-applied finishes add depth, movement, and durability that standard paint cannot replicate.
Venetian plaster is ideal for feature walls, fireplaces, entryways, and high-visibility spaces where texture and light interaction matter. Each surface is built in layers and finished by hand, resulting in a surface that feels refined, intentional, and timeless.

Chris and his team were professional from start to finish. The paint work was clean, precise, and finished on schedule. The decorative feature wall completely changed the space feels intentional and highend. We’d hire them again without hesitation.
