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.

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.

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 Brooksville, FL, look no further than Shields Painting.

The Premier Commercial Painting Company in Brooksville, 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. When you work with our business painters, you can rest easy knowing we treat your business like it were our own. We always clean up after ourselves and know that operations cannot come to a halt just because we're painting. 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

We offer professional business painting services to a variety of building types, including:

Industrial Painting
A high level of care and finesse are required to effectively paint an industrial property. At Shields Painting, we know that industrial paint jobs involve much more than aesthetics.

02
Retail Store Painting
Our commercial painters apply effective, yet appealing interior and exterior paint that stand up to the daily rigors of busy retail environments.

BROOKSVILLE, Fla. — The subject of math can be a hit or miss for many students. It’s either loved or hated.
What You Need To Know
“Minus 12 times one, that is also going to give us negative 12 right?” said Weeki Wachee High School math teacher Adam Buckey to his students.
Although Buckey is a math teacher, he even admits that math isn’t always riveting.
“Sometimes making it fun and entertaining for the kids can be pretty tricky. The kids battle with even liking mathematics,” said Buckey.
Buckey’s love for numbers is kind of infectious. His students learn to love math, especially when they see how positive and enthusiastic he is to the subject.
“I just always try to stay in a good mood, and it’s a natural mood, I am generally happy. I feel that it is good to be in a good mood, because then my students stay in a good mood, too, it’s positive energy,” said Buckey.
He has only been teaching for four years, but is already very involved at the school.
He helps after school with an e-sports club, and assists struggling seniors to meet their math requirements for graduation.
“He is one of our junior sponsors, so he puts on proms, dances, things along those lines. His wife works here as well, and they are just part of what you want at a school, a total community. They have their baby here sometimes during events. Just makes it feel like a family,” said Weeki Wachee High School Principal Edward LaRose.
“What formula do you think is going to be the most helpful for us to use to convert it to standard form?” said Buckey to a student.
“Vertex?” answered the student.
“Our vertex form, yes,” said Buckey with an encouraging smile.
Buckey wants his students to succeed, even if at first it doesn’t seem likely.
“It is amazing to watch a student grow. To see where they are at, sometimes they are struggling with adding and subtracting, and then by the end of the year they are dealing with all types of problems,” said Buckey.
Buckey said he plans to make teaching a lifelong career, though he does have a future interest in teaching at the college level, too.

BROOKSVILLE, Fla. - The ground search has been suspended after nightfall for a Brooksville 2-year-old who went missing Thursday morning, but Hernando County Sheriff Al Nienhuis said deputies would continue searching from the air using infrared cameras.
State law enforcement issued a Florida Missing Child Alert for Joshua "JJ" Rowland who appears to have wondered away from his home between 10 and 11 a.m. Thursday.
At least 50 first responders from surrounding agencies searched the area around his home for hours using horses, drones, helicopters K-9s and ATVs.
During a 5 p.m. press conference, Sheriff Nienhuis said the child still had not been found during the large-scale search of the area around Cheever Road and Yontz Road in northern Brooksville.
Hernando sheriff says missing toddler was seen in yard at 11 a.m.
5 p.m. update
Sheriff Nienhuis said JJ's mother was asleep when the toddler disappeared. She last saw him around 10 a.m., but a witness later came forward to report seeing the boy playing in the yard around 11 a.m.
The area around the home is surrounded by trees and brush, and aerial footage shows a pond nearby.
Hernando County Sheriff's Office spokesperson Denise Maloney said the property also has several barns and structures, and there are a few homes nearby.

"We don’t know if he’s on the move or maybe hunkered down somewhere and is hiding, fell asleep, playing with some animal, we don’t know," Maloney said. "It was reported that he walked out the door while mom, and he was sleeping. I don’t know if he woke up and just left, not sure."
Toddler not seen since 10 a.m. at Brooksville home
Search crews are asking neighbors to check their properties after a 2-year-old boy went missing from his home.
Meanwhile, the sheriff said deputies visited sex offenders in the area and did not find any sign of JJ. The sheriff also noted there is no indication the child was abducted at this point in the investigation.
"We ask everyone in the area who lives in this general area to please go outside of their property, look at bushes, look at any cars that are unlocked…to find this little fellow," said Denise Maloney, the spokesperson for the agency
.Maloney said Joshua's mother looked for the boy for about an hour before she called 911.
He was last seen wearing a gray Batman shirt and dark gray pants. He has blonde hair. He turns 3 years old in July.

Maloney described the area around his Brooksville home, saying the property sits on a parcel where barns, sheds, and other homes are located.
"The woods here are so very thick," Maloney said. "So people who live in this area can check their own property and call 911."
Anyone with information is asked to call 911 right away.

A two-year-old toddler has been found alive about 24 hours after he walked off from his home in Brooksville, Florida.
The Sheriff in Hernando County, Al Nienhuis, said JJ Rowland, who vanished on Thursday morning as his mother was napping, was discovered by a volunteer sleeping in a forest just before 11am on Friday.
“I was hoping and praying for a miracle. I certainly was not expecting one but, I think a lot of people were praying and prayer works,” the sheriff said, according to Fox 13.
The sheriff added that paramedics were set to examine JJ, but said that the child appeared to be in good spirits when he was found in the woods close to Parrot Middle School – located about half a mile north of his home.
“He’s definitely going to have something to tell his kids and grandkids about and I’m sure mom and dad are going to keep a closer eye on him from this point forward,” he added, thanking the more than 500 volunteers who took part in the search for the child on Friday morning.
The mother of the child told deputies from the Sheriff’s office that she had laid down for a nap with JJ at about 9.30am on Thursday, adding that he was nowhere to be found when she woke up. She looked for him for around an hour before calling the authorities.
The search started around 12pm on Thursday. The ground search was paused after dark but the authorities used infrared devices to search at night. A missing child alert was issued by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
At sunrise on Friday, the ground search restarted as hundreds of volunteers joined law enforcement. Horses, ATVs, K-9 units, and helicopters were also used in the search.
Heather Brandis took part in the search after making the trip from St Petersburg, Florida. She told Fox 13 that her kids are friends with JJ and that they spent time together as recently as this week.
“I couldn’t imagine ever in the world not looking, ever,” she told the local TV station.
Ms Brandis started searching close to JJ’s home at about 9pm on Thursday and didn’t stop until early Friday morning at around 4am. When she returned later on Friday morning, she became aware of the hundreds of volunteers that had joined the search and shortly after that, the news came that the toddler had been found.
“I’m thrilled!” she told Fox 13.
Shortly before JJ was found, the Sheriff’s office said they didn’t need any more volunteers.
