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.

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.

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. 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.

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

Editor's note: This story was updated to indicate that the Lake-Orange Expressway is a Central Florida Expressway Authority project.
CLERMONT, Fla. — As there continues to be more and more construction in the area of south Lake County, some residents say they are getting frustrated with their daily commutes to Orange County.
They say drive times seem to be getting longer and longer.
What You Need To Know
Talking to people in south Lake County, two main buzzwords are going around: development and infrastructure. And many residents argue that infrastructure in the area has not kept up with the growth.
That’s one of the reasons why officials with the Central Florida Expressway Authority say they are moving forward with the Lake-Orange Expressway, to cut commuters' time on the road and have a better connection between Lake and Orange counties.
“We’ve had our own little baby boom in Florida,"said Ashley Condon. "But people my age that are natives are hard to find.”
When he’s not on his boat, Condon is at his Clermont home working on his truck. He’s lived in Florida his entire life, and in the Clermont area for 14 years. In that time, Condon says there have been changes.
“A lot of the changes have been good — we’ve seen some economic growth in the area,” he said.
But with the growth comes traffic, and that is something Condon says he is seeing more of these days.
“We already know that it needs attention, which means we’re already behind,” said Condon.
Many Clermont residents like Condon say they have had to get used to a longer commute to Orange County.
“Anybody who is a regular commuter can tell you that whole area is a nightmare anytime during rush hour," Condon said. "I seriously plan appointments and things around it because I don’t want to deal with it."
That’s why some south Lake County residents say they are hoping state and local government will addresses infrastructure in the area. Central Florida Expressway Authority is currently designing the Lake-Orange Expressway, which will connect U.S. 27 to State Road 429.
It is a project that Condon said is long overdue.
“Hindsight is 20/20 right? If you could have expected this a while ago it would have been easier to come about," he said. "Then, of course, as a resident, it gets frustrating at times."
Officials say as south Lake and west Orange counties continue to grow, the proposed toll road will alleviate congestion and help support Wellness Way, which is coming to the south Lake County Area in 2025.
As for Condon, he says any infrastructure solutions are welcomed, and he hopes to cut his commute to Orange County and the Florida coast in the future.
“Anything in the east-west path is welcomed," he said. "The two major hearts in Clermont are Orlando and Tampa. No matter which direction you head you’re in traffic."
Officials say the Lake-Orange Expressway project will be broken up into three segments. The agency is still in a design phase, which started in 2020.
Schofield Road opening lessens travel time between Orange, Lake counties
Amy Quesinberryhttps://www.orangeobserver.com/news/2023/sep/27/schofield-road-opening-lessens-travel-time-between-orange-lake-counties/
Folks in both Orange and Lake counties are rejoicing at the paved completion of Schofield Road — the east-west connector from Avalon Road, in Horizon West/Winter Garden, to U.S. 27, in Clermont. The 6.5-mile road, now fully paved between Orange and Lake counties, is saving commuters from miles of driving and traffic headaches by avoiding the heavily traveled West Colonial Drive to the north and U.S. Highway 192 to the south.It’s a winding, rural drive through the countryside at present — but it won’t remain tha...
Folks in both Orange and Lake counties are rejoicing at the paved completion of Schofield Road — the east-west connector from Avalon Road, in Horizon West/Winter Garden, to U.S. 27, in Clermont. The 6.5-mile road, now fully paved between Orange and Lake counties, is saving commuters from miles of driving and traffic headaches by avoiding the heavily traveled West Colonial Drive to the north and U.S. Highway 192 to the south.
It’s a winding, rural drive through the countryside at present — but it won’t remain that way, as development projects already are expected in the area. Future plans include a sports complex, hotels, 170,000-square-foot medical plaza, Valencia College campus, apartments and thousands of homes.
Lake County hired Ally Engineering Service to handle the project of modernizing Schofield Road. Cemex and Lake County partnered for the project, and construction began in October 2021. Cemex contributed about $15 million, said Lake County Commissioner Sean Parks.
A majority of the road lies within Lake County. Only a few miles run through Orange County.
Schofield previously was a clay road that had been paved only in sections. Running enthusiasts and high school cross-country teams have been using a portion of it, known as the Clay Loop. Some people expressed mixed emotions on the paving because of its popularity with runners, but Parks said most of that trail was saved.
When the opening of Schofield was announced on Facebook, many people shared their excitement:
“This should help me get to work faster,” one person wrote.
“This will save a lot of time for anyone hopping over to U.S. (Highway) 27 from Horizon West,” a real estate agent wrote.
“Took nine minutes to drive, lessened a trip to a point north of where it comes in to (U.S. Highway) 27 by 10 minutes,” another resident said. “This is huge for those of us near Schofield.”
Former Orange County District 1 Commissioner Scott Boyd commented as well: “Great to see one of three east-west corridors connecting Lake and Orange (counties) open. Creating regional connectivity with commissioners Sean M. Parks (Lake County) and Betsy VanderLey (former Orange County commissioner).”
The bad news, to some folks, is the road is only two lanes. The good news, according to Parks, is plans already are in place for it to be widened within a year, starting on the Lake County end.
“The rest of the portion will be widened again; it just depends on how quickly the growth comes,” he said.
“That widening will be driven by impact fees,” Betsy VanderLey said.
VanderLey’s father is the late Jon VanderLey, the Oakland mayor who created the West Orange/South Lake Transportation Task Force in 1999 so the two counties could work together to try to identify more east-west roadway connectors between them other than Highway 192, Colonial Drive and a few dirt roads.
While in office, Boyd picked up where Jon VanderLey left off and began working with Parks to identify several possible routes. Among them were New Independence Parkway, Schofield Road and the future Sawgrass Bay Boulevard and toll road State Road 516.
Parks also is a member of the Central Florida Expressway Authority, which is responsible for the construction, maintenance and operation of toll roads in five Greater Orlando counties.
“I think (Schofield Road) will provide relief for Hartwood Marsh Road,” he said. “There are two or three other roads that are planned, and this will certainly help with the relief; it will be even better. This is a good first start.”
“I appreciate both former commissioners,” Parks said. “The Lake County side wouldn’t have been able to have that without their help.”
Betsy VanderLey appreciated the opportunity to collaborate with Lake County to bring relief to residents traveling between the two counties.
Between West Colonial Drive and U.S. Highway 192 are five opportunities for east-west connectivity. To the south of Colonial is Hartwood Marsh Road, which already is in use. To the south of that is New Independence Parkway, which will be called Wellness Way once it reaches the Lake County line. That road is under construction and will be done by the end of the year.
Further south is the recently opened Schofield Road.
South of that will be the new Lake/Orange Expressway (State Road 516) toll road. It currently is in the design phase, and construction should begin this year on the first phase, which will begin in Lake County. It will be a four-lane limited-access highway that will run between S.R. 429 and U.S. Highway 27. It is expected to open in 2026.
Sawgrass Bay Boulevard will be located to the south of the future toll road. Parks said the Lake County portion of this road is finished and it’s now up to Orange County to complete the connection.
“For sure, these corridors will take a lot of pressure off the current corridors,” Parks said.
“Now you have a pretty seamless drive from 27 down to the 429,” Boyd said.
Hurricane Idalia: Central Florida returning to normal as northern counties begin recovery

Hurricane Idalia spared Central Florida overnight Tuesday into Wednesday, with the Orlando area receiving several bands of rain and gusts of winds – though a far cry from devastation experienced elsewhere in the state.
No major damage was reported in Orange, Seminole, Lake and Osceola counties by authorities. Orange saw between 1.5 and 2.5 inches of rain as the hurricane blew by, Mayor Jerry Demings said.
“Storms are unpredictable,” Demings said at a Wednesday news conference. “Always treat them like they are serious. We always plan for the worst and we hope for the best. While we may have been less impacted by the storm than some areas, that storm could have turned and we could have been more impacted.”
Government operations ranging from public schools, city halls and county administration offices are due to reopen Thursday, as garbage collection and other services resume.
One large tree was reported down in the Conway area, while the Orlando Utilities Commission had about 28 outages related to the storm, and Duke Energy peaked at around 500 outages, Demings said. Of more than 700 traffic signals countywide, just nine were damaged Demings said.
Shelters in Orange and Lake counties were closed by midday Wednesday. Orange County officials say 151 people used them and 90% were unhoused.
Overall, it was a sigh of relief, compared with dramatic images of storm surge and devastation in the Big Bend, where the Category 3 hurricane made landfall near Keaton Beach.
“This is a good test run for the next storm, and I’m sure they’ll be one,” said Lauraleigh Avery, the emergency manager for Orange County.
In Osceola, emergency manager Bill Litton said government operations would reopen Thursday and traffic signals were all operational.
“The good news is, we have no damages to report throughout the county,” he said in a video posted to X, formerly known as Twitter.
Orlando experienced minimal impacts from the storm, city officials said.
Lake County plans to reopen its government operations on Thursday, said James Frye, a county spokesperson.
By midday, Seminole County had nearly deactivated its emergency response center after reports of “minimal damage,” across the county, according to county spokesperson Andy Wontor.
“It really wasn’t that bad,” she said, regarding reports of storm damage.

Marion County boat ramp and park at Orange Lake to undergo nearly $2 million in renovations

Heagy-Burry Boat Ramp in north Marion County, a popular boating and fishing access point for Orange Lake, will be among the latest of the county’s parks to be modernized, thanks to nearly $1.9 million in renovations planned.
County commissioners approved the project earlier this year and adjusted the budgeting for it at their meeting last week to designate appropriate grants and funds for remodeling the boat ramp to two lanes and implementing more handicap accessible features, among other renovations.
“It's been on our project list for a long time, and there’s been a need for a longer time than that, so just getting it going is exciting for us,” Parks and Recreation Director Jim Couillard told the Star-Banner. “We're happy to be able to do this for the community.”
Parks and Rec:Nearly $1 million in upgrades coming to Ray Wayside Park, popular Silver River boat launch
Bass and mullet lurking:Fishing report for Marion County and the surrounding area
More news:Report reclassifies Rodman/Kirkpatrick Dam as 'high hazard,' estimates $1.6 million repair
Many upgrades planned to rudimentary ramp, park
The park, which is a little less than nine acres in size, is located just south of McIntosh at 5040 NW 191st Place. Its primary features are a boat ramp and fishing pier on Orange Lake.
“Right now, it's a lime rock parking lot with one ramp with a portalet up there,” Couillard said. “It’s just time to modernize it and get it ready for the long haul. We take a lot of pride in our water access parks.”
He said the ramp is considered a “complex ramp” and that despite its popularity, the condition may deter some boaters who would otherwise like to use the lake.
“There's some issues with it as far as it being slick sometimes, or it's got some humps in it, so it's hard to recover a wet boat trailer,” he noted.
The 2016 Parks and Recreation Master Plan for Marion County also described a “rudimentary” and “cracking” boat launch facility and unpaved parking area, though there are picnic tables and the fishing pier in good shape. It summarized that “the park does not have the amenities to draw users seeking a traditional park experience.”
Couillard elaborated that the boat ramp will be remodeled, turned and widened to two lanes. There will be handicap accessible gangways going down to floating courtesy docks, similar to the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant docks at Hope Boat Ramp and Carney Island. The fishing platform will also be relocated and realigned, and the shoreline stabilized with retaining walls.
“Upland, we are going to be adding a bathroom facility, ADA parking for boat trailers and for the general public, and then paved parking,” he said. “Then we have future plans to expand the parking so that that can be a base for fishing tournaments.”
Restored Orange Lake is popular fishing, recreation spot
Heagy-Burry is the only boat ramp that allows access to Orange Lake when water levels go down, unlike others in Alachua County or privately owned ramps. Covering 12,550 acres, it is the largest lake in North Central Florida.
“Orange Lake has went through a huge habitat restoration project with Fish and Wildlife a few years ago, and the water quality up at Orange Lake is just unbelievably good,” Couillard said. “It's good for fishing, it's good for airboating, it's good for duck hunting, a lot of really cool aquatic-oriented recreation out there.”
Orange Lake generates an estimated $2 million economic impact from outdoor recreation annually.
“It's very well used, especially in the local communities in that area,” he said. “We do get people that come down from Alachua County to use it. I know people from the Tampa area that drive up there for the duck hunting, so it is well known.”
The total amount allotted to the project is $1,878,666. Parks and Recreation has allocated $909,402 for its portion, which comes from user fees, not taxes. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission awarded a Sport Fish Restoration grant totaling the remaining $969,264, or 53.1% of the share.
There is no timeline on the project yet, but Couillard says Kimley Horn, the engineer on record, is assessing the county’s current permitting at Heagy-Burry and ensuring adherence to the Land Development Code.
“As soon as they get done and we get a clean archaeological report, we're going out to bid,” he said. “It'll be a long-term project. I'm thinking nine months.”
Ray Wayside improvements in the works
Meanwhile, at Ray Wayside Park near Silver Springs, plans approved last year include replacing the two boat ramps, replacing the wooden docks with a floating dock system, constructing new restrooms and adding a handicap accessible kayak launch and fishing platform.
That project is currently under design, and construction money becomes available Oct. 1.
