About Company

Performance Painting is the commercial painting partner GCs and property managers in the Sea-to-Sky call when the job matters and the timeline is real. We work across Whistler, Pemberton, and Squamish — on multi-family new construction, large-scale interior and exterior projects, and recurring property maintenance contracts.

We're on a $3.4M run rate heading into 2027 with a clear line of sight to $5M+, and we're building the team and systems to get there without anyone burning out along the way.

The culture here is straightforward: we do the right thing, we take care of clients like they're the only ones, we don't quit when things get hard, and we actually enjoy the work. We're based in one of the most desirable places in British Columbia for a reason — balance isn't a perk here, it's a value.

If you want to build something that lasts in a place most people only visit, this is where you do it.
