Premium Painting Franchise Announces Major Market Expansion Across Kentucky and Ohio

DENVER, Colo. – With the Midwest experiencing remarkable growth in premium real estate,  LIME Painting, the first and only luxury home painting and restoration services franchise, is setting its sights on expanding its franchise footprint with a special focus on Kentucky and Ohio.

With an existing presence in Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City, LIME Painting is targeting development in Louisville, Lexington, and Cincinnati. This furthers what will be an expansive push into the Midwest, a densely populated region that makes up approximately 20% of the nation’s GDP.

“Cincinnati, Lexington, and Louisville are exactly the kinds of vibrant, design forward communities where LIME Painting excels. Homeowners in these cities take tremendous pride in their properties, and there’s a clear demand for premium, craft level painting and restoration services that go far beyond what the traditional market offers,” said Nick Lopez, CEO and Founder of LIME Painting. “Entering these markets allows us to serve clients who appreciate excellence and are looking for a partner they can trust.”

Ohio and Kentucky are known for being franchise friendly, with stable economies, supportive business climates, and straightforward tax structures that make it easier for people to own and operate franchised businesses.

“Both states have the right mix of economic stability, population growth, and demand for high‑quality home services. Franchisees here are positioned to see strong success because the market fundamentals align perfectly with what makes LIME thrive,” said David Luke, Franchise Development Director at LIME Painting.  “With favorable conditions and a clear need for premium property services, Ohio and Kentucky present compelling opportunities for new operators looking to build a scalable, service‑driven business.”

To support its franchisees, LIME Painting offers comprehensive resources, including assistance in building a skilled team, marketing support through access to templated marketing materials, and access to LIME Elite Academy, the brand’s exclusive training program designed to help franchisees excel. The initial franchise fee for LIME Painting is $60,000, with a total investment ranging from $126,700 to $227,075.
