Our Beginnings

A Few Brushes, a Used Van & a Commitment to Quality.

Ward Painting began in 1991 when Sean Ward set out to build a painting business of his own. The son of immigrant parents, Sean started with a few brushes and a used van.

The company grew through the quality of its work. Satisfied customers recommended Sean to others, and word spread.

As demand increased, Sean expanded the business to serve more homeowners and property owners, building a team capable of taking on increasingly detailed projects.

Over the years, Ward Painting developed experience in residential and commercial painting, surface preparation, decorative finishing and historic building restoration.

Today, the same principles still shape the work: understand the project, prepare the surfaces carefully, complete the job professionally and respect the client's property.

1991

A Business Built One Job at a Time.

The early business grew through recommendations, repeat customers and an emphasis on quality workmanship.

“Sean Ward and the Ward Painting organization can best be described in 3 words, professionalism, honesty & integrity.”

Our Philosophy

Your Property Deserves the Same Pride We Put Into Our Work.

You work hard to create a home or business you can take pride in. We believe the people working on your property should approach it with that same sense of care.

Whether the project involves an interior room, the exterior of a home, a commercial property or a historic structure, our approach begins with understanding the details.

Good results depend on more than the final coat of paint. Surface preparation, material selection, scheduling, neatness and communication all matter.

We aim to complete each project with the professionalism and attention that has helped us build lasting relationships with our customers.
