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.

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.

The Premier Commercial Painting Company in Citrus Springs, 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.

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.

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.

Small Business Painting
Do you own a restaurant franchise? Have a small "mom and pop" location that needs a fresh coat of paint? Shields Painting has the resources and reliability to efficiently get the job done the first time. That way, you can focus on serving your customers, not having your business repainted.

Helene’s storm surge inundates Crystal River, coastal Citrus County default

It’s a scene that’s become all too familiar to Citrus County coastal residents the last 18 months.
Aerial drone video of flooded neighborhoods. Airboats rescuing stranded citizens as waters rise. The Sheriff standing on the roadway, with water up his knees, imploring people to stay away and let emergency responders do their work.
Hurricane Helene brushed Citrus County with an 8-foot storm surge that inundated Crystal River, Homosassa and Ozello, leaving residents and business owners wondering how to move on.
Crystal River Mayor Joe Meek, who posted regular tide and flooding information throughout the night Thursday, said flooding was of historic proportions.
“Unofficial, getting reports and pictures from throughout the city, we do not have specific surge numbers yet, but definitely in excess of Hurricane Idalia, looking like the 1993 no-name storm,” he said. “Unbelievable amount of water throughout the city, numerous structures flooded substantially.”
Citrus County Sheriff’s deputies blocked road access into Crystal River and Homosassa. Deputies blocked nearly all roadways leading west from U.S. 19, as waters were still receding in the early afternoon.
“I know a lot of folks are wanting to get back in, unfortunately the water levels are just too high to be accessible to most of our residential areas,” Meek posted around 1 p.m.
Despite a mandatory evacuation order, and dire predictions of a 10- to 15-foot surge, some still chose to ride out the storm at home. The Sheriff’s Office said it rescued 85 residents and pets who were trapped by rising floodwaters.
The county said 161 people evacuated to Citrus County emergency shelters. With school reopening Monday, the county will open a recovery shelter at Citrus Springs Community Center. The American Red Cross will staff it with hot meals and a shower trailer.
Daystar Life Center in Crystal River is also offering hot meals, showers and tarps to storm victims.
There were no reports of injuries or fatalities.
About 31,000 power customers lost electricity during the storm. Crews are working to restore service.
Crystal River has seen its share of weather. Hurricane Idalia’s flooding permanently closed City Hall, and some structures are still being rebuilt after an October 2023 tornado tore through the city.
County Commission Chair Holly Davis said Citrus County’s coastal communities sustained significant damage.
“Together as a community we can get through this. Let’s all pitch in to help,” she said.
Meek said Helene’s flooding is another resiliency test for his city.
“Many buildings and places that have never seen flood waters, unfortunately took on water,” he said. “We will work hard to get us back.”
