We Believe in Doing It Right the First Time.

  • The owner is on every job

    Kevin Spahn runs every project in person, from the walkthrough to the final touch-up. You talk to the person doing the work.

  • Prep comes first

    Walls are light-checked, patched and sanded; oak is shellac-primed; cabinets are degreased. Most paint failures are prep failures.

  • Your home is protected

    Floors covered edge to edge, furniture wrapped, and Zipwall dust barriers wherever we sand or spray.

  • Named products, not "premium paint"

    Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane on trim and cabinets, Duration matte on walls, shellac primer on oak. It is written on every estimate.

“Kevin’s work ethic and Work product are head and shoulders above anyone in his field. He was reliable, trustworthy and a perfectionist. Just what you want in a painter! He also did minor repair work above and beyond the scope of the necessary painting. Hire Kevin...you won’t be sorry!”

“Very happy with Paintcrafters. The owner assured me that he would have the work completed before Thanksgiving and he did. The paint job was beautiful and really brightened up my home. I noticed a minor problem that needed to be touched up after the job was completed and Kevin Spahn assured me that he would take care of it and he did so. I value his high quality work, but I value his integrity even more.”
