Our History

Since 1949, Martin Painting Corporation has been a family-run business, its roots firmly planted in Dallas, Texas. J.C. Martin, the founder, established the company after his service in the Navy, bringing with him a creative vision and his expertise in custom painting. Along with his brother Lester, J.C. honed their skills, quickly becoming known for their extraordinary work with the city's most discerning decorators. Their dedication to specialty finishes set them apart from traditional painters, laying the foundation for a legacy of excellence that continues to this day.

Years later, Barry A. Martin joined the company in 1979, forging a partnership with his father that further cemented the company's reputation for unparalleled quality and service. This shared commitment to artistry and excellence has attracted and nurtured some of the most talented artisans in the painting industry. For generations, clients have come to trust Martin Painting Corporation to deliver exceptional results, transforming homes into spaces that reflect their unique style and vision.
