In a fast-changing world, it’s rare to find a business that not only stands the test of time but thrives across generations. Yet for homeowners and business owners across California’s Central Valley, Scotty’s Painting has been a name synonymous with quality, professionalism, and family values since 1965.

What began as a small local venture over 60 years ago has grown into one of the region’s most trusted painting companies. Founded by Joe Head, Scotty’s Painting was built on principles of hard work, honesty, and hands-on service. That legacy was carried forward by Joe’s son, Brian Head, who upheld those values for many years and added his own meticulous approach to customer care.

Based in Escalon, Scotty’s Painting proudly serves clients throughout Modesto, Manteca, Oakdale, Ripon, Riverbank, and neighboring communities. This strong local focus allows the company to maintain a level of personal service that’s hard to find in today’s marketplace. Whether repainting a family home, refinishing kitchen cabinets, or updating a commercial property, Scotty’s Painting approaches every project with the same care and attention to detail.

Brian Head became known for his personal involvement in every job. Rather than sending crews out and checking in from the office, he visited each worksite daily, often multiple times, making sure timelines were met, expectations were exceeded, and that clients always felt heard. That kind of leadership helped build the company’s reputation and kept customers coming back, sometimes decades later.

Scotty’s Painting offers a full range of services, including interior and exterior painting, cabinet refinishing, deck restoration, trim replacement, and even concrete floor refinishing. Every job is fully insured and backed by a valid California Contractor License (#1123003). Whether a project is residential or commercial, large or small, Scotty’s Painting combines the tools of a modern contractor with the approachability of a neighborhood business.

Clients often comment on the professionalism and energy of the crew, many of whom have been with the company for years. With over 60 years of combined experience among them, Scotty’s team delivers not just clean, efficient results, but lasting peace of mind.

Over the years, Scotty’s Painting has earned a loyal following, not through flashy advertising, but through consistent, high-quality work and word-of-mouth referrals. Testimonials from customers highlight traits that never go out of style: punctuality, precision, fair pricing, and integrity.

One couple recently shared their experience:
 “Brian and his crew painted the interior of our house and refinished our cabinets. Not only were they clean, careful, and on time, but the quality was beyond anything we expected. Brian is one of the most honest contractors we’ve ever worked with.”

Another long-time client noted that they first used Scotty’s Painting 26 years ago and didn’t hesitate to call them again when it came time for a refresh, proof that quality work really does stand the test of time.

Reviews on platforms like Yelp and the Better Business Bureau echo these sentiments, consistently praising the company’s reliability, craftsmanship, and responsive service.

According to Brian Head, painting isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about protecting what matters.
 “Paint isn’t just about style or color preference,” he says. “A quality paint job will help protect your real estate investment. That’s why we take time to do it right.”

That philosophy is evident in every aspect of Scotty’s Painting, from the prep work and material selection to cleanup and follow-through. It’s not just about finishing a job, it’s about building relationships that last just as long as the paint on the walls.

When you work with Scotty’s Painting, you’re not just hiring a contractor; you’re working with a company that has staked its reputation on doing things the right way for more than six decades. In an era where trust is everything, Scotty’s Painting continues to deliver, one project at a time.

And now, a new chapter begins. Brian recently passed the torch to Max Janis, a talented and dedicated professional who shares the same commitment to excellence, integrity, and personal service that has defined Scotty’s Painting since its founding. Brian has full confidence that Max will not only carry on the company’s proud legacy, but elevate it even further.

For Central Valley residents looking to refresh, restore, or protect their homes and businesses, Scotty’s Painting remains a standout choice for service you can see—and integrity you can count on.
