Tom & Pantea Umrysz, Owners
Co-owners Tom and Pantea Umrysz bring over two decades of combined experience, blending a passion for high-end craftsmanship with exceptional customer service.
We utilize state-of-the-art equipment, eco-friendly finishes, and weather-resistant architectural coatings to ensure your property looks stunning and stands the test of time.
Whether you are updating a summer beach house or refreshing your primary residence, transform your living spaces with our comprehensive interior painting process. A flawless interior finish is 90% preparation. Before we even open a can of paint, our team carefully protects your furniture, fine art, and flooring. We specialize in seamless drywall and plaster repair, intricate trim and wainscoting painting, vaulted ceilings, and high-end kitchen cabinet refinishing.
Because the health of your family is our top priority, we exclusively use premium, low-odor and zero-VOC paints from trusted manufacturers like Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams, ensuring a safe, beautiful environment inside your coastal home.
Positioned directly on the Long Island Sound, homes in Niantic face brutal exterior challenges. The combination of coastal salt spray, intense UV exposure, and heavy nor’easters can cause inferior paints to blister, chalk, and fail rapidly. Add in the freezing, icy New England winters, and unprotected exterior wood will quickly suffer from moisture intrusion and peeling.
Our Niantic exterior painters provide extensive scraping, sanding, power washing, and structural caulking before a single drop of paint is applied. We expertly service traditional wood clapboard, aging cedar shakes, vinyl siding, stucco, and classic coastal decking. We utilize high-build acrylics and elastomeric coatings that flex with changing temperatures and lock out corrosive salt moisture.
Main Street Niantic is a bustling hub of tourism and local business. From boutique retail shops, restaurants, and marinas to bed and breakfasts and Homeowner Associations (HOAs), a well-maintained commercial property is essential. We deliver highly efficient commercial painting tailored to your operational schedule.
We routinely coordinate with business owners and facility managers to work after-hours or in the off-season, ensuring zero disruption to your daily operations while delivering a flawless, branded finish that impresses summer tourists and year-round locals alike.
Niantic is dotted with beautiful, historic seaside cottages and older New England homes that require highly specialized care—especially when dealing with lead-based paints applied prior to 1978. East Coast Pro Painting is fully EPA Lead-Safe Certified (RRP). This means we have undergone rigorous federal training and are legally and safely permitted to restore older coastal homes without putting your family, your pets, or the fragile shoreline environment at risk of lead dust exposure.
Our painting crew possesses decades of combined on-the-job experience and is fiercely dedicated to doing the job the right way, the first time. Our team is more than just “staff”—they are extended family. At East Coast Pro Painting, we cultivate a positive team culture that balances rigorous hard work with genuine camaraderie.
When our painters arrive at your property, you can expect a crew that is uniformed, punctual, professional, and courteous. We maintain a clean worksite daily, navigate tight beachside neighborhoods with care, and treat your property with the utmost respect.
Common questions from our Niantic and East Lyme clients about our professional painting processes.
Yes, East Coast Pro Painting is fully registered and licensed in the state of Connecticut (License #: 0648196). We carry comprehensive liability and worker’s compensation insurance to fully protect you and your property while we are on site.
To safely cover older surfaces and combat the relentless coastal salt spray, we exclusively use premium 100% acrylic latex paints and high-grade binding primers from industry leaders. This guarantees superior color retention, elasticity to prevent cracking, and a long-lasting defense against moisture and UV rays. For homes situated directly on the water, we utilize specific marine-grade or elastomeric options.
Most standard residential exterior repaints take between 4 to 7 days, depending on the size of the home, the extent of prep work required (such as replacing rotted trim or heavy scraping on aging cedar), and the weather. We provide a detailed timeline during your initial consultation so you know exactly what to expect.
