I had a chance to exchange ideas and communicate with most of these contractors through social media and discussion boards, I have to agree:
There are some good choices here Scott!
Agreed, George, a top notch group for sure. Happy Holidays!
Wow, wasn’t expecting this one. Thank you for recognizing us at epi, the guys will love to hear about this.

Thanks Gabe, we have enjoyed seeing all that you guys share on facebook, etc.
It’s great to see others striving to take the painting industry to higher level then what most are accustomed to.With the networking that the internet allows I have found it refreshing to interact with like minded individuals.
Our industry is one that is usually looked at by many as a trade that anyone could do with little experience and, lets be honest,the caliber of what many are use to having to hire isn’t saying much.
With team work,pride in every project, and integrity we have been able to dominate the Tampa Bay residential painting market and demonstrate to home owners that there are more professional painting contractors available now then ever before.
I would like to say,Thank You, to all who better our industry
Aaron, your company – Integrity Finishes of Tampa Bay – is another that could and should easily be on this list. You have been a great example to watch of an owner operator putting down the brush and building a great company.
Great choices Scott! They all have a staked out a nice corner of social media and freely share their work/best practices with others.
Happy Holidays!
Thanks Chris! You were one of the first in our industry to advocate hard for sharing through social media. Thank you.
