What we paint
Six kinds of work, one standard.
Most of what Proper Paint does is repaint work for Eugene homeowners, inside and out, plus cabinets, staining and pressure washing. The rest is commercial jobs and new construction for general contractors. Whichever it is, the scope gets written down before anyone opens a can.

Why Proper Paint
The person who quotes your job is the person accountable for it.
Proper Paint LLC is Jake Ramsey's painting company. Jake was born and raised in Eugene. He walks every job and writes every quote himself, so the person who prices your project is the same person accountable for the finish. Our customers keep mentioning the same things: careful prep, clean lines, showing up on time, and a work area left clean. We paint homes inside and out, and we take on commercial and new construction work for businesses and general contractors. Licensed, bonded and insured, Oregon CCB #244293.

How it works
What actually happens, start to finish.
No mystery steps and no surprise line items. Here is the order things happen in on a Proper Paint job.
- 01
Jake walks the job with you
He comes out, measures, and gets clear on the scope in person: surfaces, coats, colors and sheens, and any repair that has to happen before paint.
- 02
You get an itemized written quote
Broken out line by line: surfaces, coats, prep and any siding or trim repair, plus the payment schedule and terms in writing.
- 03
Approve it from your phone
The quote arrives by text or email. Read it, ask about anything that looks off, and sign it digitally when you are ready.
- 04
Prep first, then paint
Washing, scraping, masking, caulking and priming happen before the first coat. That is what makes a paint job last.
- 05
Final walk, then the invoice
You and Jake walk the finished work together and anything you flag gets handled. The invoice comes through the same way the quote did.

Reviews
What Eugene homeowners say.
We had Proper Paint/Jake paint our newly remodeled home interior. His attention to detail and level of prep was some of the best my retired contractor husband had ever seen. Jake did such a great job on the interior, we had him back the following year to paint the exterior of our house and barn. Again, the level of prep and work was great. A couple of years later the house and barn still look great.
We have also referred Proper Paint to our neighbors who had him repaint their kitchen cabinets and now the exterior of their house. They have also been very happy with his work.
Outstanding professional painter, great prices, fair & reasonable. Always on time & cleans up his work area!
We couldn’t be happier with the paint job done on our home. The quality of their work is absolutely top notch! The eye for detail was exceptional -prep work, cutting in, repairs needed, an even coverage and great cleanup.
On top of fantastic craftsmanship Jake communicated on a regular bases. He kept us informed every step of the way, showed up on time, and was respectful of our home. In Addition Jake & Habana were genuinely friendly and delightful to work with. If you are looking for painter that takes pride in their work and are pleasure to work with we highly recommend Proper Paint!
Jake and his company Proper Paint LLC initially painted my two remodeled bathrooms He came doing the job for Castile Kitchen and Bath. He did a great job, always on time and just an easy, honest person. So much so I had him paint the exterior of my home. I can’t recommend Jake and Proper Paint enough. Attention to detail and cares about your home as it was his. Not disappointed!

Common questions
Questions Eugene homeowners ask first.
Straight answers. If yours is not here, call Jake and ask him directly.
Call (458) 210-4150What areas around Eugene does Proper Paint serve?
Proper Paint LLC is based in Eugene, Oregon, and most jobs are inside Eugene itself. Jake also takes work in Springfield, Junction City, Creswell, Cottage Grove and Corvallis. If you are a few miles outside those towns, call and ask, because it depends on the schedule and the size of the job.
Do you do both interior and exterior painting?
Yes. Interior and exterior repaints are both core work for Proper Paint. Interiors cover walls, ceilings, trim, doors and baseboards, along with patching and priming. Exteriors cover siding, trim and fascia, including the washing, scraping, caulking and minor siding repair that has to happen before any paint goes on.
Do you take on commercial and new construction work?
Yes. Alongside residential repaints, Proper Paint takes commercial jobs and finish painting for general contractors on new builds. Larger scopes get quoted in more detail, broken out area by area rather than as a single number, so send over the plans or the scope and Jake will put together an itemized quote.
How does getting a quote work?
It starts with Jake coming out to walk the job and measure it in person. You then get an itemized written quote by text or email, with the surfaces, coats, prep and any repair listed separately, plus the payment schedule and terms. You can read it on your phone and sign it digitally when you are ready.
When is the best time of year to paint the outside of a house in Eugene?
Eugene's wet season makes exterior painting mostly a summer and early autumn job. Roughly late June through September gives the most reliable stretch of dry, mild weather for prep and for coats to cure properly. Interior work runs year round, which is why a lot of Eugene homeowners book interiors over the winter and save exteriors for the dry months.
Who will actually be doing the work?
Jake Ramsey owns Proper Paint and runs the estimates and walkthroughs himself, so the person who prices your job is the person accountable for it. You deal with him directly rather than with a salesperson or a call center.
Where we work
Eugene first, and the valley around it.
Proper Paint is based in Eugene and most jobs are inside the city. Jake also takes work in nearby towns when the schedule lines up, so it is worth asking even if you are a few miles out.
