In this episode of On the Move with Matt Podcast, I sit down with Nathan Hatke, owner of Reliable Painting and Reconditioning — a local painting company in Winchester, Virginia known for top-quality work, honesty, and word-of-mouth reputation.

From pastoring for nearly two decades to running one of the most trusted painting companies around, Nate shares his journey, his philosophy on quality workmanship, and why customer satisfaction always comes before payment. You’ll also hear practical advice on everything from choosing the right paint finish to fixing drywall cracks and even tackling epoxy floors the right way.

• How Nate turned his painting side job into a thriving business

• The key difference between cheap paint and quality paint (and why it matters)

• Why Reliable Painting never asks for payment until you’re 100% satisfied

• Pro tips for home painting, drywall repair, and power washing
