Olathe’s Hometown Deck Builders & Painting Pros
★ 4.9 on Google · 1,000+ Projects · Licensed & Insured
Gladiator Home Improvement is headquartered right here in Olathe, on S Mur-Len Road, so when an Olathe homeowner calls, they’re not getting a crew trucked in from across the metro.
Olathe is the Johnson County seat and one of the fastest-growing cities in Kansas, which means a mix of brand-new subdivisions, established ’90s neighborhoods, and older homes near the historic downtown.
We’ve spent years building decks, painting homes, and pouring concrete in all three.
Our Services in Olathe
Custom Deck Building & Replacement
This is our flagship trade and our home turf. New-construction homes in Olathe often come with a small builder-grade platform out back. We replace those with custom decks actually sized for grilling, gathering, and Chiefs watch parties, in wood or composite, on lumber sourced from Owen Lumber.
For older Olathe homes, we take out worn structures entirely and construct new decks from the footings up. Every build carries our 1-year workmanship guarantee.

Exterior Painting
A sharp exterior holds up your home’s value on any Olathe street, from newer stucco-and-stone facades to older wood siding downtown. Our painters use Schutte Lumber materials where trim replacement is needed and premium Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore coatings on top.

Interior Painting
Moving into a new Olathe build and want the flat builder white gone? Refreshing a kids’ room or the whole main floor?
We do tidy, on-schedule interior work with low and zero-VOC paint options. Find interior painting details here.
Wood Rot Repair
Window trim, door frames, fascia boards: when moisture gets in, we replace the rotted wood properly instead of caulking over it.

New patio to pair with your new deck? Cracked walkway or tired driveway? Our concrete crew handles patios, walkways, and driveways across Olathe.

Helpful Answers for Olathe Homeowners
Olathe FAQs
In case you missed anything and had some more questions.
Does Olathe require a permit for a new deck?
It does. Since we’re based in Olathe, we work with the City of Olathe’s permitting office all the time. We prepare the plans, pull the permit, and schedule the inspections as part of your project.
How soon can you start my Olathe project?
Being local helps. Estimate appointments in Olathe are usually available within days, and once your permit clears, most deck builds take one to two weeks on site. Painting projects can often start sooner.
Is composite worth the extra cost over wood?
For many Olathe families, yes, no staining, no sealing, and it handles our humid summers and icy winters without complaint. But a well-built wood deck is a beautiful, budget-friendlier option, and we’re happy to quote both.
Do you only build decks, or can you handle the patio and paint too?
One crew, one point of contact: deck construction, concrete patios, exterior and interior painting, and wood rot repair. Plenty of Olathe customers bundle two or three services into a single project.
