Our Journey

His journey started in Midland, Michigan, where he honed his skills as a high schooler. After pursuing his education at NMC in Traverse City and falling in love with the beauty of Northern Michigan, Chris decided to establish his own business in 1994. What started as a vision has blossomed into a thriving enterprise fueled by a dedicated team of painters with over 100 years of combined experience.

Driven by his enthusiasm and commitment to quality, Chris assembled a team of talented professionals who share his passion for exceeding client expectations.
