Q.
• How did you get started?
A.

• As with most things, I started in one area and it evolved to another. I worked in the coatings industry much of my adult life after college. I spent time as a painter in the SF Bay area and then moved to the Sacramento area and managed paint stores for a large west coast manufacturer. Back then they put us through painting apprenticeship courses to make us trade savvy for our customers. We had to become experts in Airless spray applications when airless pumps were just becoming popular, Paint chemistry, color matching, Wall Paper installation, color theory, design and decorating. This education mixed with my application experience of the past and now present has gotten me to the point where I am now contracting my own work and developing a company to do even more.

Paint may have a lift time warranty, however, it often is non-transferable if you move or sell the home. Limited warranty just means we fix the area that failed not redo the whole job. We will also provide touch up paint at the end of the job to keep at the home for future needs.
