The Shields Painting Difference: Perfection with Every Brush Stroke

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.

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.

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

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.

When it comes to first impressions, your businesses' appearance plays an important role. Your commercial property's paint job factors into its overall aesthetics.

The Weeki Wachee Area Club is providing resources and food for those in need.
HERNANDO COUNTY, Florida — It’s not the night when Hurricane Helene hit that weighs heavy on Karen Allen-Holsten of Weeki Wachee most, but the days, weeks, and months ahead of rebuilding that follow.
“Unfortunately, we’re going to lose a lot of good neighbors," she said. "That’s the part that’s going to stink."
After neighbors in the Palm Grove Colony overcame Hurricane Idalia last year, they, like others in Florida, are forced to rebuild again after Hurricane Helene brought more catastrophic flooding.
The damage to one of Allen-Holsten's properties is expected to cost thousands and thousands of dollars.
After days of non-stop clean-up, she said some who've been affected have been somewhat able to process the physical and mental toll of the storm’s aftermath.
“It just looked like a tornado hit it,” she said describing a rental home that flooded.
10 Tampa Bay was in the neighborhood two days before Hurricane Helene made landfall as neighbors made last-minute preparations to barricade and sandbag. Allen-Holsten had lifted the furniture and even her refrigerator, but the water had reached levels she had never seen before.
Those like Aaron Ellis and his family are once again recovering after living through Hurricane Idalia. The family of four is having to live elsewhere after suffering from catastrophic damage.
Ellis had stayed behind to keep an eye on his home but eventually had to paddle out to high ground and seek refuge at Allen-Holsten's home.
Loved ones have since started a GoFundMe to support Ellis, his wife, and two kids.

Next-door neighbor Chris Shaheen watched as at least five feet of water got into his home, rearranging his belongings and destroying his truck. The clean-up remains a non-stop task.
While neighbors acknowledge the risks associated with living near water, they said it’s not just about the environment that keeps them here.
“It’s physically beautiful. It’s a beautiful place, but the people make it that much better,” Shaheen said.
When Hurricane Idalia flooded homes last year, the community banded together to help each other. Neighbors said it speaks to their character as a community.
About one mile away is a testament to its character.

The Weeki Wachee Area Club continues to be a space for resources and food to those in need. One free meal provided by the community at a time reminds people they're not alone.
The club’s president Mary Ann Johnson said Hernando County is strong.
“There’s a lot, a lot of help out there. A lot of good people on the ground,” she said.
Despite the work that's needed to recover, Allen-Holsten said she's determined to rebuild, alongside the community.
"I'm determined, so I'm gonna get everything up and going again," she said.
The club, which is being utilized as a family resource center, is located on 7442 Shoal Line Boulevard will be open at 9 a.m. again to provide support for anyone in need.
Hernando County residents are also eligible to apply for FEMA assistance.
The county is also opening up personal hygiene trailers for a temporary time. Those who use them are asked to bring their own soap, towels, and laundry detergent.
Laundry, restroom, and shower trailers are at the following locations:

Storm surge concerns in northern counties
Our northern counties will feel the brunt of Hurricane Helene. There is a major concern about storm surge in Citrus, Hernando and Pasco counties, and anyone who lives west of US-19 is asked to evacuate.
Coastal areas of Hernando County are under a hurricane warning as Helene approaches Florida, leading to mandatory evacuations for Zones A, B and C – everything west of U.S. 19.
Hernando County and Hernando Beach residents are used to hurricanes, but officials are emphasizing this is different.
As Helene spins closer to the Hernando County coast, Nick Kotow and his brother spent Wednesday delivering sandbags.
"I'm in a flood zone myself. I haven't even gotten to my own house yet, you know, so we're just here helping the community, doing what we can," said Kotow.
They made close to 400 sandbags and dropped them off to those waiting to protect their homes before they evacuate.
"Most of the community does get together and helps out as many, as much as we can. But there's always, you know, there's always people who still need help," said Kotow.
Hernando beach commissioners spoke directly to those who have weathered past hurricanes at home and plan to stay, warning Helene is not the same.
"This is not one of those storms. This is going to be significant, catastrophic damage because of the water because of the surge, you need to have a plan and you need to get out now," said Commissioner Brian Hawkins.
"As it passes Hernando County, as it goes parallel and then north of us, that's when we're most susceptible to a storm surge. That storm surge is going to be 6 to 10 feet. It's predicted even higher north of us in Citrus and Levy counties. It's predicted up to 10 to 15 feet. So please take this storm seriously," said Hernando County Emergency Management Director David Decarlo.
Officials are doing what they can. Sheriff Al Nienhuis said deputies will patrol to keep an eye on evacuated homes.
They’ll have high water vehicles ready for rescues, along with the fire department.
But at some point, first responders may not be able to help.
"With 12 feet of storm surge, and wind, potentially our operations are going to cease along with the sheriff's department," said Fire Chief Paul Hasenmeier.
Shelters will be open, but the county is urging people to stay with family or friends in safer areas.

With 8 to 12 feet of storm surge predicted for coastal areas of Hernando County, area officials are urging residents to get out now.
Mandatory evacuations in zones A, B and C (areas west of US 19, low-lying areas and manufactured homes) began at 8 a.m. this morning.
In Wednesday evening’s Emergency Operation Center update on Hurricane Helene, Commissioner Brian Hawkins emphasized that the forecast of 8-12 feet of storm surge is “the most significant forecast that we’ve come up against and it could continue to go up.”
“I know you guys have seen me out in the beaches, in the coastal communities during the last couple of storms in the last couple of years, this is not one of those storms. This is going to be significant catastrophic damage because of the water, because of the surge and you need to have a plan and you need to get out now.”

“We’re talking about single-story homes that could be completely covered with water if the predictions are true.”
David DeCarlo, EOC director added, “Twelve feet of storm surge will put water on US 19.”
The public shelter at West Hernando Middle School (14325 Ken Austin Parkway) is open, but space is limited. For those who bring their pets, the Emergency Director urges people to bring all necessary supplies. Citizens are advised to take shelter with family or friends if possible.
The storm is expected to enter the Gulf of Mexico this evening, and Hernando County will begin to feel the effects on Thursday morning and into the afternoon. It will most likely make landfall in the Big Bend area on Thursday evening as a category 4.
Hernando County can expect 8-12 feet of storm surge as Helene passes through the Gulf of Mexico along our coastline. The storm surge will begin to come in tomorrow morning or tomorrow afternoon, depending on the size, strength and speed of the storm.
Sandbag locations will be open tomorrow, weather permitting, starting at 8 am. Sandbags are available at various locations around the county, including Linda Pedersen Park, Anderson Snow Park, Ridge Manor Community Center, and Spring Lake Methodist Church.
David Lambert, general manager of Withlacoochee River Electric, said that there are crews in the area from outside the state of Florida now stationed in Hernando County and throughout their five-county service area to respond to this storm. He said that if you are evacuating, make sure to turn off the breakers in your home beforehand. He added safety reminders to stay away from downed power lines and to not run generators inside the home.
