Who We Are
Over 30 years ago, Rob Hetrick, owner of HPI, began a small painting company to help support his growing family. He made sure he always took the time to recognize exactly what the client had in mind and to understand all their expectations. If there was something that a prospective customer wanted that he was unsure of, he went out and learned the process completely before committing to the job. After more than thirty years, Rob has gained a vast knowledge of the painting business and keeps himself updated regularly with the improvements in both methods and product in this ever-advancing industry. Rob keeps his crew learning, too, and also tries to educate potential clients with this information as it pertains to their individual job so that they, the customer, will have a fuller understanding of what he and his crew will be doing. His wife of 40 years, Debbi, their 5 children & 4 grandchildren are also very involved in the family business and various community projects!
"Highest standards in customer satisfaction and work quality since 1981. You're not just a customer, you're a neighbor!"
– Rob Hetrick
