About
When Teresa Farrell needed her entire house painted including cabinets, she faced the common homeowner dilemma of choosing a contractor she could trust while being away during a two-week project. Hands On Painters completed the work with painters she describes as "extremely tidy, paid attention to detail" while she remained comfortable being absent. This level of reliability and care defines how owner Jonathan Zawacki runs his Baltimore-area painting operation, recognizing that behind every project is a homeowner entrusting their property to strangers.
That cabinet project represents typical Hands On Painters execution. Owner Jonathan Zawacki and project manager Derrick Conover have built their over 60 five-star Google reviews and 4.8-star Angi rating with over 700 reviews through consistent practices. Derrick provides detailed estimates and stays responsive via text throughout projects. Office manager Gale handles scheduling and keeps customers informed when they can't be on-site. Painter teams led by professionals like Fidel, Antonio, and Naun arrive on time and maintain clean work areas. From their Leeds Avenue location in Baltimore, they handle everything from single-room touch-ups to complete interior and exterior transformations. The fully licensed team (MHIC #70338) operates without subcontractors, employing full-time painters year-round.
Hands On Painters operates primarily through repeat customers and referrals. Jill Montgomery has hired them yearly for four consecutive years. Jennifer Oliver Martin uses them for projects "very large and very small." The consistent 4.7-star Google rating and A+ BBB rating reflect something beyond technical painting ability. They capture a contractor who completes work on schedule, maintains communication through office staff rather than going silent mid-project, and consistently delivers the reliability that turns first-time customers into annual clients.

About
Sam and Diego have built a business with over 65 five-star Google reviews through consistent practices and attention to detail. Sam personally conducting quality assurance walkthroughs on every project, Diego patching drywall carefully and making old painted-over wallpaper look like brand new walls, crews emplacing tarps daily and vacuuming thoroughly before leaving. Reviews mention painters covering floors with multiple layers of protection, detailed contract processes through DocuSign showing scope and timeline, and Sam texting to confirm arrival times before appointments.
When Meredith Gillick needed to host family last minute during a painting project, Sam didn't just accommodate the interruption. He put the room back together as much as possible before the weekend, even though it meant re-covering furniture and re-prepping everything on Monday. Two months after Nick O's exterior project, when Sam noticed an old repair with two short cedar pieces instead of a full board, he asked "do you mind if I replace it the right way at no extra cost?" and upgraded the work without billing.
Projects range from single door painting to complete exterior houses requiring large ladders on slopes with extensive cedar board replacement. Customers mention crews showing up consistently except Sundays and rainy days, Sam emailing exact paint colors used after completion with labeled cans, and Diego's practice of filling, sanding, and priming holes before painting. The fully insured team, operating since 2008 from Columbia, handles everything from three-room refreshes completed in one day to month-long exterior transformations across Howard County's 30-mile service radius.
