About Us
“On time. Professional and did a great job
—Facility maintenance company
Our Mission
Enhancing the community and the lives of our employees, clients, and vendors, one brush stroke at a time.
Our Vision
To be the nation's leading provider of commercial and industrial painting & coating services.
Painters USA was founded in 1976 with two primary goals: to provide the highest quality painting services and to take care of our employees as we do. In the 40+ years that have passed since then, we have grown into a thriving, respected company, serving commercial and industrial clients across the United States. We also continue to meet our second goal, as we employ more than 180 invested and dedicated staff members at 4 locations.
Painters USA is proud to be a woman-owned, WBENC-certified company with both a heritage and a bright future that is firmly rooted in responsive, personal customer service.
Our Values
It’s one thing to talk about values, but living up to them is what really matters. At Painters USA, our company values are instilled in every employee at every level from day one. From our field technicians proudly displaying them on their shirts to posters on our office walls, every employee is reminded to project & promote our values in everything we do. These values have directly resulted in us becoming the thriving commercial & industrial painting company we are today.
