The heart of our company is family

The story of Barefoot Painter LLC began in 2016 when two friends found themselves at pivotal moments in their lives, both yearning for change. One friend was already immersed in the world of painting, presented with the opportunity to transition from a routine job to a thriving business. Despite uncertainty, she embraced the potential for a new direction. The other friend, discontent in a corporate role, stood at a crossroads, seeking a more fulfilling path. Little did they anticipate that a casual lunch conversation would lay the foundation for what Barefoot Painter LLC is today.

In 2016 Barefoot Painter became a partnership focused on residential paint contracting, tackling projects like living room ceilings, bathroom repaints, and bedroom upgrades. Evolving over time, our unwavering commitment to quality and customer satisfaction propelled us into more substantial undertakings, including complete home repaints and exterior transformations.

Today, Barefoot Painter LLC stands proudly as a sole-owner business, boasting a growing team of highly trained, professional painters. While residential painting remains integral to our services, our expansion into commercial projects underscores our dedication to versatility and excellence.

At Barefoot Painter, we approach each task with unyielding dedication, ensuring our customers experience unparalleled satisfaction. Beyond providing a mere paint job, we are devoted to enriching the essence of both home and business spaces. Our goal is not just to leave customers content but genuinely delighted, transcending the ordinary. It's about leaving an indelible mark with craftsmanship that brings smiles to our customers' faces from ear to ear.

At Barefoot Painter LLC, we're not just a family-owned business; we're a Family First Business. As the sole proprietor, Kathy Vacho leads with a commitment to family values, and this ethos extends to every aspect of our operation. In the summer, you might encounter various family members contributing to our projects. During the school months, Kathy's husband and eldest daughter actively participate in estimates, color consultations, and are hands-on at job sites when the brushes are in motion.

Our pride in being a family company goes beyond blood relations – it encompasses all our staff and their families, who hold integral roles as valued members of the Barefoot family. We believe that a strong family foundation translates into a strong business, fostering a culture of unity, dedication, and shared success.
