The practice
Trained in England. Licensed in California since 1993.
Red Reddington served a full apprenticeship at Brooklyn Technical College in Great Barr, Birmingham. The City and Guilds of London Institute awarded him its Advanced Craft Certificate in Painting and Decorating, with distinction in every component.
Then he moved to Los Angeles and spent his early years as a journeyman on major hotel projects. Then he took out his own license and put his name on the door. The practice is still family owned, and Red still runs it.

Discretion
Most of what we finish will never be photographed.
Private houses stay private. On most of our projects photography is not allowed, and we never name clients. So the portfolio will always be smaller than the record.
NDAs are standard here. Every crew member signs a confidentiality agreement before they set foot on site. If your client needs their own, send it with the drawings.
In their words
As an architect, the finishing contractor is often the person who makes a difference between a good job and a great one. Red & his crew is all we need!
Our high profile client traveled between coasts, and Red's Painting was asked to send samples to New York as well as have samples on the walls at a moment's notice. Red and his team were extremely responsive, and their work ethic was impeccable.
Red and his men painted a brand new 5,800 SF house for me and did a spectacular job. The workers were bright, articulate, and professional. They were able to adapt at their job, offered great solutions to problems, and were a pleasure to have in our home even after we moved in.
Not only is Red a master craftsman, but he is an artist who brings a tremendous level of enthusiasm, responsibility, and integrity to his work.
