About Southwestern Paint

Southwestern Paint is an independently owned paint and coatings retailer headquartered in Houston, Texas. In business since the mid‑20th century, the company operates multiple Southwestern Paint and Southwestern Paint & Co. locations across the Houston, Spring, Katy, Galveston, Beaumont and surrounding Texas areas. They specialize in Benjamin Moore paints as a primary line while also carrying a wide assortment of other brands, specialty coatings, stains, clear coats, wallcoverings, tapes, adhesives, and painting tools for both professional contractors and DIY homeowners.([southwesternpaint.com](https://southwesternpaint.com/pages/locations?utm_source=openai))

A charge from “TX Houston Southwestern PA KA” is very likely a purchase made at one of Southwestern Paint’s Houston-area locations, with the issuer truncating or abbreviating the name (for example, shortening “Southwestern Paint” to “Southwestern PA”). Such transactions typically represent in‑store purchases of paint, stain, primer, painter’s tape, brushes, rollers, sprayers, or other decorating and surface‑prep materials. Depending on your bank, you may also see small temporary authorization holds if a card was run and then later adjusted for the final ticket amount (for example, after adding tinted paint or additional items at the counter).

If you have questions about this charge, first check any recent receipts or invoices from paint or home improvement purchases in the Houston area, especially where you bought Benjamin Moore or specialty coatings. Reviewing your email for order confirmations or your card network’s mobile app for the exact date, time, and location can help confirm which Southwestern Paint store you visited. If something still looks incorrect, you can contact Southwestern Paint directly using the phone number on their website or on your receipt, and your bank can assist with disputing a transaction you don’t recognize if you’re unable to resolve it directly with the store.([southwesternpaint.com](https://southwesternpaint.com/?utm_source=openai))

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my statement say “TX Houston Southwestern PA KA” instead of Southwestern Paint?

Card processors and banks often truncate or abbreviate merchant names to fit limited character space, so “Southwestern Paint” may appear as “Southwestern PA” followed by city and internal codes like “TX HOUSTON” and “KA.” If you made a paint or supplies purchase at a Houston-area Southwestern Paint store on that date, this is most likely that transaction.

What kinds of purchases typically result in a charge from Southwestern Paint?

Most charges from Southwestern Paint come from in‑store purchases of paint (including Benjamin Moore), primers, stains, clear coats, wallpaper, painter’s tape, brushes, rollers, sprayers, and other painting accessories. Contractors may also see larger invoices for bulk orders or specialty coatings.

Does Southwestern Paint offer any recurring billing or subscriptions that could explain multiple similar charges?

Southwestern Paint primarily operates as a retail paint store and does not commonly bill consumers on a subscription basis. Multiple similar charges are usually separate in‑store purchases or split tickets (for example, separate invoices for materials on the same project). If you see recurring monthly charges, contact the store or your bank to verify the details.

How can I get a copy of my receipt for a Southwestern Paint purchase I see on my card?

If you need a receipt, contact the specific Southwestern Paint location you visited with the transaction date, approximate time, and last four digits of your card. Staff can often look up your ticket in their point‑of‑sale system and provide a reprinted or emailed copy. Checking your email for any confirmations at the time of purchase may also help.

Could this charge be an authorization hold from Southwestern Paint?

Some banks place a temporary authorization hold when your card is first run at the register, especially for larger amounts. This may show as a pending Southwestern Paint transaction that later updates to the final total or disappears if the transaction is voided. Authorization holds normally clear within a few business days, depending on your bank’s policies.

How do I request a refund or return for items purchased at Southwestern Paint?

Refunds and returns are handled directly by Southwestern Paint stores. Bring the unopened product, your original receipt, and the card used for payment back to the location where you purchased it. Custom‑tinted paints and special‑order items may be subject to more restrictive return policies, so it’s best to call the store ahead of time if you’re unsure.

How can I contact Southwestern Paint if I don’t recognize this charge?

You can find current phone numbers and a contact form on Southwestern Paint’s official website under their Locations or Contact pages. Provide the date, amount, and any descriptor details from your statement so staff can help identify the specific store and transaction. If they cannot locate the purchase and you still suspect fraud, follow up with your bank to dispute the charge.

Are there common charge amounts or patterns for Southwestern Paint that I should expect?

Amounts vary widely—from small purchases for a single brush or quart of paint to larger totals for multiple gallons, stains, and supplies. Contractors may see higher‑value invoices associated with project materials. Charges are almost always one‑time transactions tied to a store visit rather than small, repeating amounts.
