Paying before the work is done
Most painters ask for a deposit the day you sign, then collect more before the job is finished. Your money is at risk before a brush ever touches the wall.
The Ranger guarantee
No money paid until you are satisfied with the work.
Your Cedar Park painting project starts with a written estimate, not a deposit. You keep your money until the crew finishes, you walk the work, and you are satisfied with what Ranger painted. Take a look at our services, locations, or reviews.
Why it matters
You should never have to gamble
on a painter.
Most Cedar Park homeowners you know have been burned at least once, by a fuzzy bid, a start date that slipped, or a paint finish that did not match the promise. Ranger pulls the biggest painting risks off your plate before a crew ever shows up at your house.
Want the no-deposit terms in writing first?
A start date that quietly slips
A handshake start date moves once the deposit clears. With no written timeline, you have nothing to hold the painting crew to and no clear date for your project.
A finish that does not match the bid
A fuzzy verbal bid leaves room for surprise change orders and a paint finish that drifts from what you pictured, with no written scope to point back to.
No one to call when something fails
Once the check clears, too many painting crews go quiet. Without a written warranty and outside backing, you are on your own if the paint does not hold up on your house.
Three commitments
The three risks Ranger takes off your plate before a crew shows up.
No deposit, payment only after the final walkthrough, and a written scope you hold before you decide. The whole point is to keep your money and your expectations protected from the first call to the last coat of paint on your home.
No deposit
You owe nothing the day you sign. No deposit, no retainer, no holding fee. Your first dollar changes hands only after the painting is done, which almost no Cedar Park, TX painting company will offer you.
Pay after the final walkthrough
You pay only after you walk the finished painting with the crew lead and confirm every line in your written scope is done. If anything on your home is off, we fix it before the invoice ever reaches you.
Written estimate, not a verbal handshake
Your written scope spells out the surfaces, prep steps, paint products, colors, timeline, and payment terms before you decide. No surprises, and no change orders you did not agree to.

How the guarantee works
What happens between your first call and the final invoice.
A no-deposit promise from a Cedar Park, TX painting company only counts if the job runs the way Ranger says it will. Here is the path every house follows, so you can see exactly when your guarantee kicks in.
- 01
Walk the project
We walk your home with you and agree on surfaces, prep, paint products, access, and timeline in writing before any painting is booked.
- 02
Write the estimate
Your written estimate spells out the scope, the products, the schedule, and the payment-after-completion terms, so nothing is left to a verbal promise.
- 03
Protect the home
Our painters protect your floors, landscaping, and furniture, set daily start times, and give you one point of contact the whole way through.
- 04
Finish with proof
We walk the finished painting with you, fix anything that is not right, and only then send your invoice. The guarantee is built into the path, not added on later.
By project type
What the guarantee covers on each kind of project.
Your no-deposit terms, pay-after-walkthrough terms, and BBB and Good Contractors List backing apply to every painting job you book, exterior or interior. The workmanship coverage below is the part that changes from one painting service to the next.
Exterior painting
Read the exterior painting scopeYour exterior painting job is warrantied on prep and application of Sherwin-Williams products against peeling, blistering, and flaking from workmanship defects. Wood rot, settling cracks, and stucco failures sit outside the workmanship guarantee, and Ranger flags them during the walkthrough of your house.
Interior painting
Read the interior painting scopeYour interior painting job is warrantied on prep, primer, and finish coats against streaks, drips, and roller marks from workmanship defects, on the rooms and surfaces of your home in your written scope.
Cabinet painting
Read the cabinet painting scopeYour cabinet painting job uses Sherwin-Williams Gallery Series with sanding, priming, and spray finish steps spelled out in your written scope. Workmanship coverage for the spray finish is in the same document; normal wear from daily use is not covered.
Brick painting
Read the brick painting scopeYour masonry painting job is warrantied on the prep and application Ranger performs. Existing substrate failures, like crumbling mortar or unstable stucco, are noted during the walkthrough so they are never confused with a workmanship claim later.
Stucco painting
Read the stucco painting scopeYour masonry painting job is warrantied on the prep and application Ranger performs. Existing substrate failures, like crumbling mortar or unstable stucco, are noted during the walkthrough so they are never confused with a workmanship claim later.
FAQ
Questions homeowners ask before they sign their estimate.
Does Ranger require a deposit before painting starts?
No. Ranger Painting never asks for a deposit. You pay $0 upfront, and payment is due only after the final walkthrough, once the work is done and you are happy with it. On top of that, the Good Contractors List backs every Ranger job with a $25,000 work guarantee, so the risk is off you.
What paint products does Ranger use?
Ranger names the Sherwin-Williams products on your written estimate, so nothing is a mystery. Exterior projects use Duration or Emerald Rain Refresh. Interior walls use SuperPaint, Duration, or Emerald. Trim uses Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel. Cabinets use Gallery Series. For brick and stucco, the masonry coating is confirmed in writing before work begins.
How long do typical painting projects take?
Exterior projects average 2 to 3 days. Interior projects average 1 to 2 days. Cabinet projects average 4 to 5 days. Your written estimate confirms the timeline for your project before any work begins. Ranger shows up on time, stays organized, and follows through from the first day to the last.
