In addition to its painting capabilities, the company handles wood restorations, waterproofing, deck powerwashing and refinishing, dry rot and water damage repair, sheet metal replacement and more.

Owner Brian Layden spent more than two decades gaining hands-on painting experience in his native Ireland before moving to San Francisco and establishing Tara Pro Painting. Mr. Layden says the key to his company’s success is its extensive preparation and priming methods. “For a long-lasting paint job, preparation is absolutely crucial. Our workmen are skilled professionals who know how to prepare and prime any surface in a timely manner.”

Company Philosophy

“We pay attention to details throughout every phase of every project, from preparing the surface to applying the finish coat. We never compromise on quality, and we listen to what our customers say and immediately take care of any problems. Our ultimate goal is to provide quality, enduring painting services at great values.”

Kim B. Verified Tara Pro Painting, Inc. Customer Name
Q1:10 out of 10
Q2:Yes
Q3 & Q4:"Mostly, I liked their quality of work and just the way they treat their customers. They have painted two exteriors and have done some interior work for me as well. I have dealt with a lot of contractors, but they are just very good. Their standard for doing work is very high. They did a lot more preparation than I would have expected them to do. They cracked a window during a service, but they replaced it the next day. There were no arguments from them. Where other contractors would have given an argument, they just replaced it. I thought that was a classy thing to do. I really don't think I would call anybody else. I am getting ready to call them for another service once the rain lets up."
