The Shields Painting Difference: Perfection with Every Brush Stroke
Many painting companies in Florida rely on flashy marketing and big promises to try and attract new clients. But when it comes time to work, they fall short of their promises. This is often due to a lack of experience, qualified painters, and a drive to overachieve. At Shields Painting, we do things a little differently than other painting companies in Citrus County. We believe that a professional paint job should be as close to perfect as possible. Our goal is to leave you 100% satisfied, whether we're touching up an old residential paint job or performing a complex commercial project.

Your home is a haven of relaxation and solitude. It is uniquely you - a place where you can express who you are through style and design.

At Shields Painting, we know how important it is to have a home that highlights your tastes and personality. That's why we offer an extensive array of residential painting services in Citrus County. As tempting as it might be to try a DIY paint job, without the proper skills and experience, there is a good chance that the results will turn out less than satisfactory.
High-quality painting requires skill, experience, and patience.

The majority of our house painting services come in two forms: interior and exterior.
Interior Residential Painting
As an interior painting contractor with decades of experience, our expert technicians have developed an interior painting process that maximizes quality and emphasizes customer satisfaction. We understand that interior painting goes beyond aesthetics. It protects your ceilings and walls and helps you sustain a healthier place to live for your family. When only the finest craftsmanship will do inside your home, Shields Painting is here for you.
Our seasoned team of painting experts and craftsmen is dedicated to respecting your space and providing you with the look and feel you're craving inside your home. Whether you bought a new house and want to make it your own or need minor touch-ups but have no time, Shields Painting is ready to tackle the job, no matter how small or large.
Unlike some painting companies, our interior house painters take the time to get the details right, every time. For instance, color is only one aspect of your interior paint job. The paint sheen or finish is just as important. Certain finishes are better for living rooms and bedrooms than in kitchens and bathrooms. We'll help you find the right finish and paint colors for your home, so you don't have to worry about touch-ups or repainting.
Some of our most popular interior house painting services include:
- Ceiling Painting
- Popcorn Ceiling Removal
- Living Room Painting
- Bathroom Painting
- Basement Painting
- Color Consultations
- More
Cabinet Painting
Citrus County cabinet painting deserves its own section on this page because it requires more time, skill, and quality paint than most sections of your home. If your home's cabinets are built into its woodwork, replacing them can be obnoxiously expensive. Compared to the cost of installing new cabinets, painting your kitchen cabinets is much more affordable.
At Shields Painting, we specialize in transforming old cabinets into new, gorgeous features that are just as usable as they are beautiful. Each step of our cabinet painting process is meticulous and thorough. And we'll take care of the entire job, from cleaning, prep, and sanding to priming, painting, and reassembly. This unique service lets you enjoy a brand-new look in your kitchen without having to go into debt by replacing your cabinets.
Whether your cabinets are new, but you want to change their color or you'd like to transition wood cabinets to a painted finish, Shields Painting has the expertise and experience to give you a new look you'll love.
Exterior Residential Painting
Your home - it's a place that not only keeps your belongings safe. It protects your family and loved ones, too. It's one of your largest investments, and like anything else of value, it should be protected. However, Florida weather can take a toll on your home's structure and paint, lowering your home's value and even putting your family at risk.
While it's true that a beautiful exterior affects your house's value, it shouldn't take thousands of remodeling dollars to make a positive change to your home. There's a fine line between reasonable pricing and top-quality painting, and that sweet spot is what Shields Painting aims for. If you want to transform how your friends and neighbors see your home, never underestimate the power of a professional paint job.
Our exterior residential painting services are designed to boost curb appeal, give your home a fresh look, and help it stand up to Florida's unique weather. But we provide more than that. When you hire Shields Painting for your outdoor painting project, you will enjoy peace of mind in knowing that your home is in truly capable hands. Our goal is to exceed your expectations and help bring out the best in your property, whether you need to re-stain your deck or remove old, peeling paint from your siding.
If you're on the hunt for the very best exterior painting contractor in Beverly Hills, FL, look no further than Shields Painting.

The Premier Commercial Painting Company in Beverly Hills, FL
When it comes to first impressions, your businesses' appearance plays an important role. Your commercial property's paint job factors into its overall aesthetics. A great-looking, well-maintained paint job can mean the difference between a customer walking in your storefront and passing by. Conversely, an old, worn-out commercial paint job can send the wrong message to prospective customers. If you can't take the time to keep up your property's appearance, why would a customer spend their hard-earned money on your products?
The same goes for your businesses' interior paint. Would you want to do business with a company that has peeling paint or unsightly crown molding? At Shield's Painting, our goal is to create a beautiful environment that your customers and employees will love inside and out.

As such, we'll work with your busy schedule to ensure the job gets done right the first time without disrupting your day-to-day commitments.
With decades of commercial painting experience, we know the demands of a commercial painting project necessitate a disciplined and focused approach from the start. Our team of business painters is committed to delivering quality, on-time results on every project, every time - no excuses

Retail Store Painting

From burritos to bowling. From coffee to comestibles. This edition of Comings & Goings has something for everyone.
(Yes, I had to stretch on comestibles to keep the alliteration going).
It’s been awhile since my last column so there is much to cover. So without further fanfare, let’s get started.
Chipotle
Chipotle Mexican Grill is tentatively scheduled to open its first restaurant in Citrus County this summer.
Located at 911 Main St. in Inverness, Chipotle specializes in tacos, burritos, quesadillas and burrito bowls that are made-to-order in front of customers.
The franchise is at the same spot that used to be home to Joe’s Family Restaurant. After 28 years, the family decided to open a smaller, 155-seat building nearby at 1754 U.S. 41 North, a former art studio next to the Roller Barn.
Chipotle has 211 restaurants in Florida and over 3,000 globally.
Bowlero
Speaking of bowls (non-burrito), the new Bowlero sign went up this month in Crystal River, replacing the family-run Manatee Lanes that had been there for more than 40 years.
Bowlero, at 7715 State Road 44, is a Virginia-based chain.
“From our signature blacklight lanes to our sleek laneside loungers to our huge HD video walls, our stunning locations feature modern, upscale amenities and a retro-cool vibe that makes every party a little more memorable,” is how the chain describes itself on its website.
Bowlero Corp. is the largest 10-pin bowling operator in the world with more than 325 bowling centers across North America. In 2019, Bowlero acquired the Professional Bowlers Association,

Aldi
The German-based grocery store is building two stores in Citrus County: one at the under-construction Shoppes of Black Diamond at the northwest intersection of County Roads 491 and 486 in Lecanto and the other at the northwest corner of State Road 44 and Forest Drive in Inverness
The Lecanto site is nowhere near ready.
The ground-clearing, utility work and other infrastructure should be completed on the Shoppes by the end of the first quarter of 2023 – weather permitting, Joe Cappuccilli, with Gulf to Lakes Real Estate Inc., told the Chronicle recently.
Land-clearing at the Aldi in Inverness has not begun so don’t look for that location to open anytime soon.
Starbucks
The Shoppes at Black Diamond will also be home to the Seattle-based Starbucks coffee chain.
Starbucks recently filed a site development permit with the county, which is required before the issuance of a building permit. Look for it to open about the same time as Aldi.
The coffee chain will also build a standalone store off State Road 44 in Inverness. Insight Credit Union will be torn down to make way for Starbucks. A timetable for construction and opening has not been announced.
Jersey Mike’s
Wanted to let sub fans know Jersey Mike’s opens March 22, at 6826 State Road 44, inside the Publix-anchored Crystal Springs Plaza.
No burritos but lots of other comestibles.

End of the line for Central Ridge pool
Michael Bateshttps://www.chronicleonline.com/news/local/end-of-the-line-for-central-ridge-pool/article_3be91057-d7c7-57f6-9ce6-e60955b16069.html

County Commission Chairwoman Ruthie Schlabach on Tuesday said it broke her heart but she had no choice in making a motion to fill the Central Ridge pool in Beverly Hills with cement and stop trying to pump life into a failed project.
“It’s almost the death of a dream for me,” she told the board and public.
Her colleagues sided with her and the final 5-0 vote apparently puts to bed an issue that has been ongoing for over three years.
The move didn’t sit well with some.
Resident Janet Barack said the pool was meant for families to enjoy and “not to be filled in with cement.”
Beverly Hills Civic Association president Harvey Gerber pleaded with commissioners to back a plan to salvage the county pool.
He asked the board to sell it to the Nature Coast Affordable Housing Corporation (NCAHC), which would refurbish the pool and build a playground there to be used for free by the Boys & Girls Clubs of Citrus County.
Gerber said he has the cash and a committed company to perform the renovation work.
“We have all the money and then some,” said Gerber,
But Schlabach said she has received no correspondence from the Boys & Girls Clubs and has not seen a detailed plan from the NCAHC.
It’s time, she said, to let it go.
“This is trying to put life into something where there is no life,” she said.
Schlabach agreed to work with Gerber on another project at the park.
“That pool was not supported by Beverly Hills,” Schlabach said. “The community had it, they couldn’t support it, they couldn’t afford it.”
Added Schlabach: “We need to move on. It is not healthy. It is not serving any purpose for Beverly Hills right now.”
Commissioner Diana Finegan said she would favor tabling the issue pending more details. But ultimately, Finegan said she would support Schlabch’s motion because of the time and energy she put into the matter.
The county will now perforate the pool shell, backfill it and finish it with a concrete pad – all at a cost not to exceed $24,620.
The Beverly Hills Recreation Association once owned the pool, Beverly Park and community center. The county took it over when the association could no longer afford it, creating the Central Ridge Community Park.
The county closed the pool in 2019 due to poor attendance and high maintenance costs. It’s sat empty ever since.

The Aiken Horse Park Foundation has received a $250,000 donation to its capital campaign, which is known as The Next Chapter.
Deborah Ann “Debbie” Smith, an equestrian who lives in Beverly Hills, Florida, gave the money to the nonprofit.
The Horse Park Foundation’s Bruce’s Field at 931 Powderhouse Road S.E. is a horse show and eventing venue.
Powderhouse Road property near Bruce’s Field sells for nearly $3.8 million
Construction began there in earnest in the spring of 2015, and the first horse shows were held at Bruce’s Field in September 2015.
“Debbie’s generosity is a welcome gift to our fundraising efforts and will surely encourage others to support The Next Chapter of Bruce’s Field,” said Horse Park Foundation Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Tara Bostwick.
Originally from New Jersey, Smith was a talented junior horse show competitor in the hunter, jumper and equitation divisions, and she has continued to enjoy success as an adult.
Smith’s mounts have earned numerous Horse of the Year honors, according to a Horse Park Foundation news release issued Oct. 4.
The release also stated that Smith recently had spent two weeks in Aiken with her trainers, Matt Martin and Shane Powell of Marketmoor, a horse training, showing and sales operation based in Ocala, Florida.
“We are so grateful to Debbie for her support and belief in our mission,” said Daniel Geitner, an equestrian who is a member of the Horse Park Foundation’s board of directors.
“Her gift not only validates our efforts to make Bruce’s Field a unique competition venue,” he continued, “but (it also) provides important funding and momentum to The Next Chapter capital campaign as we move into the fall months.”
The Horse Park Foundation launched the public phase of its capital campaign earlier this year. The goal is to raise $7 million.
Around $3.6 million was donated during the campaign’s private phase.
The funds are being used to provide 10 new barns and other amenities at Bruce’s Field, and the money also will help sustain future operations at the venue.
FFRA's Fourth Annual Haunted Forest Drive Thru Oct. 27-28

There’s nothing the members of Friends and Families Reaching for the Abilities (FFRA) love more in October than a good chainsaw massacre.
Not a real one, but make-believe with fake blood and guts and gore.
This year, the third annual “Scare Stop” two-night event will be from 7 to 10 p.m., Friday, Oct. 27, and Saturday, Oct. 28 at a piece of property located behind Howard’s Flea Market in Homosassa.
From U.S. 19, drive east on West Cardinal Street, then turn left on South Lewdingar Drive. Go about one mile, then turn left at West Barbara Ann Lane and follow the signs.
Cost is $20 per car, truck, van or hay wagon filled with kids and adults who like scary stuff.
“This is one of our biggest fundraisers besides our Top Hat Big Band Concert and Dance,” said Robert DeSimone, FFRA board member and spokesperson.
FFRA, which started about 28 years ago, exists to provide social and educational resources to families and friends of developmentally disabled adults in Citrus County.
“Our membership has really grown this year, and we’re seeing new faces all the time,” DeSimone said.
One of the reasons is the fun they have together. DeSimone said they’ve always been about encouraging their members to grow and learn through opportunities to be creative and active and use their imagination, like the annual “Scare Stop.”
This year’s event still has plenty of room for clubs, organizations, groups, families, friend groups and individuals to be a scare stop, the more creative and scary the better.
“Don’t think you have to spend a bunch of money to have an effective display,” DeSimone said. “Many of the best scare stops are accomplished by using things you already have around your house or business. Be creative. The best scare stops use the element of surprise.
“Plus, each carload that goes through will be voting on the best scare stop for prize money.”
At the end of the line, each vehicle gets one vote to cast for their favorite Scare Stop.
Top prize is $500, second is $300 and third is $200 for the Scare Stop’s group.
Also, this year FFRA will be selling tickets for $20 each for a drawing for a beautiful kayak valued at $800.
For information or to sign up as a scare stop, call Robert DeSimone at 352-501-9107 or email: iam4mentoring @aol.com.
