About Us
AtOconee Contractors & Painting, we believe a quality paint job is more than just a service—it’s a reflection of your home, your style, and the people you trust to bring that vision to life. My name is Wes, and together with my wife Sara, we foundedOconee Contractors & Painting in 1998 with a mission to provide top-tier residential and commercial painting services across Athens, Oconee County, and the surrounding areas.
We started our journey in the paint business with two locally owned stores—one in Athens and one in Oconee County. Over the years, we’ve built more than just a painting company—we’ve built a trusted brand rooted in family values, professionalism, and an uncompromising commitment to craftsmanship.
A Family-Driven Painting Company
Our business has always been a family affair. Sara has been instrumental in managing and growing our company, and now our oldest son Wesley, who attends the University of Georgia, works alongside us. Our younger son Wyatt is currently a freshman at North Oconee High School and is already taking an interest in the trade. Being a family-owned and operated painting company means we treat your home as if it were our own.
Experience that Sets Us Apart
Before launchingOconee Contractors & Painting, I built homes, managed rental properties, and spent years working with paint products and color selection through our retail stores. That hands-on experience gave me a deep understanding of how products perform in real-world conditions and how color choices can transform a space. My role at the time also involved evaluating other contractors’ work for warranty claims. That perspective taught me one thing very clearly—cutting corners never pays off. That’s why we’ve always focused on delivering the highest quality workmanship, every single time.
