About Us

Our vision is to offer exceptional painting and carpentry services by embodying qualities of the best professional contractors: thoroughness, efficiency, reliability, promptness, and courteousness. In short, we've set a new “benchmark” (or standard) for customers hiring a contractor.

We are fully equipped to handle all projects - from the smallest job to the most challenging one. And our capable office staff is ready to answer all your questions at our two locations in Washington, DC and Palm Beach, Florida.

Carpentry and Faux Finishes

For the first 5 years of business, Benchmark focused on interior and exterior painting. In 2000, we began offering carpentry services after witnessing a need for this service at our painting jobs. By adding carpentry services, we offer our clients the convenience of working with one contractor for several services.

In 2001, we expanded our painting services by providing decorative painting and faux finishes, due to the high demand for these specialty offerings. In order to provide the best workmanship in these areas, several staff members received specialized training and continue to attend classes and conferences related to these disciplines.

What Sets Us Apart

What makes Benchmark different? We remain focused on creating lasting relationships with our clients and strive to be each customer's “painter for life.”

To that end, we endeavor to do the following:

• We listen carefully to our clients' needs. We'll talk to you in detail about your job before anything begins, and if you're not completely satisfied, we'll fix it.

• We work with the best vendors, suppliers and designers to always ensure our work and your experience will be of the highest quality.
  
  
• We stay on top of all the industry trends and regulations, and are actively involved in Painting & Decorating Contractors of America (PDCA) and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). Of course, we are also fully licensed, bonded, and insured.
