10 Things You Need to Know About the Wow 1 Day Painting Franchise

2.  Scudamore was inspired to start Wow 1 Day Painting in 2010 after he had his home painted in one day. He wanted to offer painting services that would be both speedy and of high quality. Today, there are over 35 Wow 1 Day Painting locations in the United States and Canada.

Opening New Locations

How the Company Paints a Home Quickly and Thoroughly

4.  Wow 1 Day Painting’s biggest selling point is the company’s promise that it can paint a customer’s house quickly, with minimal mess and chaos. To do this, the company has a three step process: Estimate, Prepare, and Paint.

5.  The company also assures that the smell of paint fumes won’t be left behind after a project is complete. Wow 1 Day Painting uses zero Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) paints, which are better for the environment and customers’ health.

6.  When a customer schedules a free estimate, they are given a detailed outline of what painting services are needed. Trained estimators give customers an accurate up-front cost for the project and the company says there are never any hidden fees.

7.  After the customer is satisfied with the proposal, Wow 1 Day Painting sends a checklist that tells the customer everything they need to do to prepare the space to be painted. An employee will also call the customer to go over all the details and answer any questions. Before painting begins, the crew will do one final walk-through to make sure everything is ready and answer any more questions a customer may have.

8.  To get the painting job done quickly, the company always makes sure to have the right number of painters working on a project. The painters also use a painting technique that is both quick and efficient.

9.  To complete the process, the crew does one final walk-through to check for any needed touch-ups. The customer will then receive a call the next day to make sure that the work, colors, and products have met their expectations.
