OnDemand Painters

How quickly can I get a quote?

We provide firm, written electronic estimates in as little as 10 minutes using satellite imagery of your property. No on-site visit needed. Our average callback time is 58 minutes, and responses come as fast as 60 seconds. We're available 14 hours a day, 7 days a week.

What is your warranty policy?

We provide a 3-year warranty on all two-coat painting jobs. That's a full year longer than the industry standard of 2 years. We emphasize proper prep work and premium paint quality specifically to deliver results that last.

How much does painting cost?

Interior painting typically runs $300–$850 per 12×12 room, or $1–$3 per square foot for whole-home projects. Exterior painting runs approximately $1.50–$4 per square foot. Pricing depends on project scope and surface condition. Contact us for a firm quote. Estimates are provided the same day.

What is your deposit policy?

We require only a 25% deposit upfront, with the balance due on completion. The industry standard is 50% or more. We accept all major credit cards. You're not locked in financially. The remaining 75% is due only when you're satisfied with the work.

What areas do you serve?

We operate in six metro markets: St. Louis MO, Chicago IL, Detroit MI, Kansas City MO/KS, Nashville TN, and Brevard County FL. Each market has a dedicated local crew with its own phone number. We do not operate outside these six specific areas.

Can I get an estimate without being home?

Yes. Our satellite imagery-based quoting system generates firm estimates without an in-person visit. This is particularly useful for property managers with multiple locations, out-of-state property owners, and busy professionals. If you prefer an in-person estimate, that option is also available.

What makes OnDemand Painters different from national franchises?

OnDemand is owner-operated. Chris Heerdegen personally answers calls and manages all crews. Specific differences vs. franchises like CertaPro: 3-year warranty (vs. 2-year), 25% deposit (vs. 50%+), 10-minute satellite quotes (vs. multi-day estimate process), and zero BBB complaints across both our Chicago and St. Louis offices.

Do you handle commercial projects?

Yes. We serve commercial clients including offices, retail spaces, and multi-unit residential buildings across all six markets. Commercial capabilities include after-hours and weekend scheduling, multi-location coordination, and the same 3-year warranty and communication standards applied to residential work.
