Painting is the trade you invite inside. The crew is in your home, around your family and your things. Scott Cohoon has a simple rule about that: no strangers in your house. This page is the answer.
Most trades work on your house. A painter works inside it. For a few days there’s a crew in your kitchen, your hallway, your kids’ rooms, around everything you own. Scott’s rule about that is simple, and it’s the reason this page exists: when you invite a painter into your home, you should know who you’re working with.
So here it is, plainly. Scott Cohoon is a retired U.S. Navy veteran. He founded Cornerstone Painting in 1999, and for more than 25 years he has been the owner, the operator, and the craftsman on every job. No salesperson knocks ahead of him. The person who walks your job and quotes your job is the same person who shows up to do it.
And the phone number on this site is not a call center. It’s Scott. Call it, tell him what you’re looking at, and he’ll come see it himself. That’s the whole system, and it’s the same one Scott started with.
The work covers more ground than most crews will touch: exteriors on three-level hillside homes, cedar siding, interiors with 25 and 30-foot ceilings, stairwells, repaints after a remodel, and the industrial jobs most painters won’t bid at all. Water towers. Structural steel. Sandblasting prep. The jobs change. The standard and the owner don’t.
Our word, on every job
Prompt, honest& reliable.
Prompt
Most small jobs run two to three days, and that is deliberate: paint needs proper dry time between coats. Fast where it should be, never rushed where it shouldn't.
Honest
No salesperson and no upsell. Scott looks at the job himself and gives you a straight number. If something under the paint needs fixing first, he tells you that too.
Reliable
Keith and Alison Halgerson have had Cornerstone back again and again, twice for a three-level hillside exterior. Treat someone's home with respect and you get invited back.
