Residential Painting & Exterior Coatings | Ojai & Ventura County, California

McKay's Painting Inc is a family owned and operated residential painting and exterior coatings company serving Ojai & Ventura County, California since 1977. With three generations of experience, we specialize exclusively in repaint projects, delivering precise surface preparation and long-lasting finishes. Every job is personally supervised by the owner to ensure quality, reliability, and clear communication. Homeowners trust us for on-time service, attention to detail, and craftsmanship built to protect and enhance their homes.

Homes in Ojai & Ventura County, California face constant exposure to sun, moisture, wind, and seasonal temperature shifts that slowly degrade surfaces and structural components. Long-term protection requires more than cosmetic fixes; it demands skilled preparation, durable materials, and work performed with attention to detail. McKay's Painting Inc focuses on preserving homes through professional painting, exterior coatings, structural repairs, metal work, and fire-resistant solutions designed for lasting performance. Painting is approached as a protective system, not a surface upgrade. Proper coatings shield wood, stucco, and metal from premature aging while improving appearance. Wood replacement and repair services address rot, weakened siding, and failing trim before damage spreads deeper into the structure. Exterior and structural improvements strengthen vulnerable areas, ensuring surfaces are sealed, reinforced, and prepared to withstand years of exposure.
