Who we are
Craftsmanship, communication, and a better painting experience.
When I started Illustrated Homes, I wanted to build more than just a painting company. I wanted to create a service experience that felt personal, reliable, and refreshingly easy to work with. My goal has always been simple: deliver beautiful finishes, honest communication, and a process that makes people actually enjoy improving their homes.
Although I’ve been painting for years, my true passion for it came while remodeling my own homes with my wife. No matter how much work went into each project, the part I always looked forward to most was the final step — bringing it all together with color. There’s something incredibly satisfying about watching a room come to life once the paint goes on. That moment when the space finally feels warm, fresh, and complete is what made me fall in love with this craft and what inspired me to start Illustrated Homes.
Since then, I’ve built the company around the same values that matter most to me personally: attention to detail, clear communication, integrity, and consistency. Every job starts with careful prep and ends with a finish that’s smooth, clean, and built to last. Whether brushing, rolling, or spraying, We choose what gives the best result for your home, not just what’s quickest. We’re known for being dependable and easy to work with. You’ll never be left wondering what’s going on or chasing someone down for an update — you’ll never be ghosted by me or anyone representing Illustrated Homes. I personally stay in touch every step of the way so you always know what to expect.
Choosing colors can feel overwhelming, so every project includes a free designer grade color consultation, with samples, to help you find the right tones that fit your home’s lighting and personality. I want every space to reflect who you are, and to feel like an effortless extension of your home.
Fully insured and locally owned, Illustrated Homes proudly works with homeowners across Central New York who value quality craftsmanship, honest communication, and a finish they can be proud of. At the end of the day, I love what I do — helping people bring their homes to life with color, care, and craftsmanship that lasts.
