Sharper Impressions Painting is excited to introduce Steve Gould as our newest team member. “I grew up in this area and have lived here all my life,” said Gould. “We live in one of the most beautiful places in the world and I want our customers’ homes to fit right in.”

Steve loves the outdoors and being active in his community. With his experience and passion for painting, he is a great match with the Sharper Impressions Painting family. “Steve has excellent references and I feel confident that he will serve the area with great customer service and quality craftsmanship,” said Founder Geoff Sharp.

Recently, Steve joined the rest of our Managers and Owners and traveled to the annual Paint-the-Brain conference in New Orleans, Louisiana. While in New Orleans, Steve participated in executive leadership training on new operating policies and technological advances, including the custom painting software and revolutionary color consulting system. Steve is now fully equipped to help homeowners beautify their homes.

Sharper Impressions Painting is happy to announce expansion plans to Portland, OR! We’re looking forward to offering our residential and commercial painting services to the West Coast.

Stay tuned!

We’re counting the days!

This February, the Sharper Impressions Painting team will gather in the great city of New Orleans for our annual meeting, affectionately known as “Paint-the-Brain.”

We’re all very excited to spend almost a full week there, enjoying the sites, music and great food. We’ve also made it a priority to show our concern for the city’s rebuilding efforts by taking a tour of the devastated areas. And, thanks to our strong connections with area paint suppliers, we’re able to make a substantial donation of Sharper time, money and Paint to support the Rebuilding Effort.

If there’s one thing the Sharper Impressions Painting team knows about, it’s the value of a home – a safe home that you can share with your family and be proud of. We hope our donation will help some families continue to heal as they rebuild their homes and their lives.

It’s always a valuable time for us to get together to review the past year and plan for the future. This year is especially exciting for us as we celebrate continued growth in sales and quality with some amazing advances in technology.

Christmas 2009…

This past holiday season was extra special for all of us here at Sharper Impressions Painting. We found out about a wonderful family in our area who was faced with some very tough times. Christmas would not be full of joy for them. Both parents had lost their jobs and things were looking pretty grim. In spite of their troubles, they remained thankful for each other and their health. They put on as happy a face as they could.

We decided we could make it better.

This is what "thank-you" looks like! Nice!

Everyone at Sharper Impressions Painting—from support staff to District Managers, even some of our awesome suppliers—pitched in to donate enough money to buy gifts for this family of five. Even better, they took time out of their busy holiday schedules to focus on the needs of others. In doing so, I think we all stumbled upon the true meaning of Christmas.

As the saying goes: ‘Tis better to give than to receive.

How true! Our dear friends sent us a heartfelt thank-you video. It brought us all to tears. Mostly because, we are the ones who feel thankful… for the opportunity to know the true meaning of Christmas.

Happy New Year!
