For years, Asheville’s top-dollar painting contractors kept Brian close at hand.
Thirty years of experience. The same meticulous, professional-grade standard you’d expect from the highest-end contractors around. Now he’s taking jobs directly — the same quality, without paying for someone else’s overhead.
What We Do
Painting & Finishing, Done Right
Interior Painting
Walls, ceilings, and trim finished with premium paint and a smooth, brush-mark-free hand. Every surface is patched, sanded, and primed before a drop of topcoat goes on.
Exterior Painting
Full exterior repaints built to hold up against real mountain weather — power washed, scraped, caulked, and primed, then finished with a minimum of two coats of premium paint.
Cabinet & Trim Refinishing
A factory-smooth, sprayed-quality finish on cabinets and trim — degreased, deglossed, and bonded properly, not just painted over.
Deck & Fence Staining
Restoring and protecting the outdoor wood that takes the most abuse from mountain sun, rain, and snow.
Also Available: Log Home & Cabin Staining
Marshall and Madison County are log-cabin country, and Brian has stained and restored more than a few of them — from routine re-coats to full strip-and-restore jobs. Ask about it when you request your estimate.
Why Prep Is Everything
The Part You Don’t See Is The Part That Matters Most
Paint is only as good as what’s underneath it. This is what the region’s highest-priced contractors are really charging for — and what Brian and his crew do on every job, no matter the size.
-
01
Clean Every Surface
Pressure washing removes years of dirt, pollen, mildew, and chalking old paint. Skip this step and even premium paint won’t bond — it’ll peel within a season or two, no matter how good the product is.
-
02
Scrape & Sand
Failing paint gets scraped and feathered back to sound material, so the new coat doesn’t telegraph every old edge, ridge, and crack underneath.
-
03
Fill, Patch & Caulk
Every hole, gap, and seam gets filled before any paint goes on — wood rot repaired, nail holes patched, joints caulked. This is what actually keeps water out and rot from coming back.
-
04
Prime The Right Way
Bare wood, repairs, and stains get spot-primed with the right primer for the surface — stain-blocking primer on tannin-prone wood, bonding primer on cabinets and trim — so the topcoat goes on even and stays put.
-
05
A Minimum Of Two Coats
Every exterior job gets at least two coats of premium paint, with the proper dry time between them — full coverage, true color, and a finish that actually lasts through mountain winters.
Have trouble choosing colors? Brian’s got you covered. He’s not just painting your house — he’s got an artist’s instinct for color, the kind you can’t fake or learn from a chart. And if you’re good with color yourself, you’re still getting a second set of eyes from someone who treats color matching like a craft. Thirty years of doing it, and he still gets it right every time.

“I got quotes from the big-name contractors that were up to 3x what Brian charged — for the exact same attention to detail. He plugged every hole in my 1927 house that was starved for attention, primed everything that needed it, and put on two full coats. Neighbors stop me to ask who painted my house.”
