The story behind Fresh Coat Painters of Augusta
Rated 5.0 across 400+ Google reviews — and counting.
Plenty of painting companies say they're detail-oriented. Andrew Hughes spent his career proving it. Before founding Fresh Coat Painters of Augusta, Andrew worked as a mechanical engineer at Plant Vogtle — an environment where "close enough" doesn't exist, where every step is measured, checked, and documented, and where doing it right the first time isn't a slogan, it's the standard. He built this company to bring that same discipline to something far more personal than a power plant: your home. That engineer's mindset is what makes Fresh Coat Painters of Augusta different. We treat your project like a process to be managed well — clear scope, careful prep, the right materials, and a crew that respects your home and your time — not a rush job to be finished and forgotten. The result is work that looks flawless on day one and still looks great years later.
From the Plant to Your Front Porch
After years of engineering high-stakes systems, Andrew wanted to build something of his own — a local business rooted in the same community where he and his wife, Perla, are raising their family. Fresh Coat Painters of Augusta is the result: a family-owned company, owned and operated by Andrew and Perla Hughes, serving the greater Augusta area and the CSRA with an owner who is personally involved in the work and genuinely accountable for it.
For Andrew and Perla, this isn't just where they work — it's home. They're raising their two kids, Everly and Hudson, right here in the area, where the children attend the School for Arts-Infused Learning (SAIL) in Evans. When we say we're invested in this community, we mean it literally: these are our neighbors, our schools, and the streets our own family lives on.
Customers notice. In review after review, homeowners mention Andrew by name — for helping them choose the right color, for walking the job with them, for standing behind the finished product. That personal involvement is the heart of the business, and it's exactly what we intend to keep as we grow.
Painting Done RIGHT!
What "Painting Done RIGHT!" Actually Means
Anyone can put paint on a wall. Doing it right means the prep work you never see, the communication you always get, and a guarantee that means something. Here's what you can count on with us:
A written warranty.
We stand behind our work in writing — not with a handshake and a hope. If something isn't right, we make it right.
Our 3-3-3 Service Pledge.
Clear, predictable communication at every stage, so you're never left wondering what's happening or when.
Accountable, documented work.
We photo-document projects with CompanyCam, so progress is transparent and nothing gets missed.
Credentials that back it up.
We're a proud member of the Painting Contractors Association (PCA), BBB A+ accredited, and fully licensed and insured.
Are we always the lowest bid? No — and our customers will tell you why we're worth it. As one homeowner put it, the price was higher than other bids "but well worth it." When you factor in the prep, the materials, the warranty, and the fact that you won't be repainting in two years, doing it right the first time is the better value.
A Team You'll Be Glad to Have in Your Home
Your home is personal, and the people we send into it matter. Our crews are full-time, professional painters — including military veterans — not rotating day labor. They show up on time, treat your space with care, clean up after themselves, and carry the same standards Andrew learned in a career where the details were never optional.
Proudly Serving the Augusta Area & the CSRA
Fresh Coat Painters of Augusta serves homeowners and businesses across Augusta, Martinez, Evans, Grovetown, and Harlem, Georgia, along with North Augusta and Aiken, South Carolina.
From interior and exterior repaints to cabinet refinishing, deck staining, drywall repair, and color consultation, we bring the same precision to every project — whether it's a single accent wall or a whole-home transformation.
Rooted in Our Community
We're not just a business in Augusta — we're part of it. Through Fresh Coat Cares, Andrew and our team are proud to support the neighbors, families, and organizations that make this area home. Over the years, that has included local charities and community groups such as [Paragraph Bold - until end of iCare4]Megiddo Dream Station, Forces United, The United Way, area Rotary Clubs, Hope House Augusta, SafeHomes Domestic Violence Center, and iCare4 — along with many local churches, schools, and youth sports leagues. Giving back isn't a marketing line for us. It's part of why we do what we do, and it's one of the things we're most grateful this business makes possible.
