About us

For the past twenty seven years, Ridings Custom Painting Inc. has quietly, yet persistently established themselves as true professionals within the paint and decoration industry. In an industry where mediocre quality and broken promises are commonplace, Ridings has seperated themselves from many there with their passion for painting! "We have passion for doing a job in which we can inject pride of craftsmanship with long lasting quality." With nearly two centuries of joint experience Ridings can solve your toughest problem projects. With a client list that now reads like "Who's Who" in the greater Seattle area, there isn't much they haven't seen and addressed before.

The work was very high quality and the attention to detail was fantastic. The preparation before painting was better than I heard about other painters. The employees were amazing from start to finish. The owner Dean Ridings came out personally to give me a bid and there was absolutely NO pressure. The employees that did the work were very friendly and extremely professional and were very respectful of myself and my husband and also very careful with our property. This is my second time working with Ridings and I can't recommend them enough.
Description of Work: Replaced rotting corbels on my house and completely painted exterior of my home

We're quite happy. We were pleased. It was quite good. They take a lot of care. Everything was done clean. Even how it came on the outside was well finished and thought out. I know they are sort of a large outfit, but they do make an effort to accommodate even a smaller task. They were very responsive. They were always there when they said they would be.
Description of Work: I wanted to put a window air conditioning in a room where the windows did not rise up, we can just put it in so Ridings Custom Painting took out one of the windows and built a structure, and mounted it there.

I would highly recommend him. I would go back and use him any day of the week. We have used them for my dads house exterior painting and our house exterior painting. They were excellent, and they were professional, they were courteous, flexible, responsive, and they really take pride in their work. I would use them again because they are committed to quality work. They are not cheap but they are cost effective. They are responsive, and easy to work with.
Description of Work: We have a good exterior painter. His name is Dean Ridings and the company is Ridings Custom Painting. They painted our entire rental property in 2009.

They were fine. They were very personable and did the work on time. They were nice people. They got a little paint on the wood which they did not clear. That was unacceptable for me.
Description of Work: I used Ridings Custom Painting two years ago for interior painting. They painted the bathroom that I remodeled.

Amazingly well! This is the first time I have ever been inspired to write an online review of a company...I was continually impressed with the quality of the work performed by Dean (owner) and his staff. When we first met with Dean, we were in the process of gathering bids from several other painting companies. Dean reviewed our needs and color selections extremely carefully, offering design / color consultation in addition to the usual logistical considerations. I thought he was so much better than anyone else we met with that I was afraid he would be extremely expensive. However, his bid came in right in the middle of the others (even slightly on the low side) so it was a no brainer. His team was extremely quick and professional with extraordinary attention to detail. My toddler and I were home all day while they were here working outside and they were also very comfortable to have around (vs. some contractors who have an odd way of staring at you!). We have since had the crew come back for interior jobs as well, which was done flawlessly while we were out of town. I am actually trying to think of more paint jobs we need to have done, just because they are such a pleasure to work with! It's rare to find a vendor of any sort that I feel this way about so I just wanted to share the good find with others.
Description of Work: Painted entire exterior of house as well as several rooms inside

THE QUALITY OF THEIR PREPARATION AND THE PAINTING ITSELF WAS SECOND TO NONE. THE PAINTERS AND MANAGEMENT WERE A DREAM TO WORK WITH AND VERY ACCOMMODATING TO OUR NEEDS AS A FAMILY. I AM USING THEM AGAIN ON A LARGER PROJECT IN OUR NEW HOME THAT IS BEING REMODELED AND HAVE HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE.
Description of Work: OUR HOME INTERIOR WAS COMPLETELY PAINTED INCLUDING ALL TRIM, WALLS, AND CEILINGS. ADDITIONALLY, OUR FRONT DOORS WERE RESTAINED AND THE EXTERIOR TRIM WAS REPAINTED AND THE BODY OF THE HOUSE WAS TOUCHED UP WHERE NEEDED.
