Welcome to McBride Paint and Wall Coverings Web Site

Thanks for visiting us online. McBride Paint and Wall Covering is a full service wall covering and painting company. If you are looking for a quality job and understand value you need to call us. Our wall covering guarantee is this, " If you can find someone to do it better, we'll pay them to do it over." We have lived with that guarantee for years and we still stand behind it.

Painting is something that value has disappeared from. People have a difficult time comparing pricing from one contractor to another. For instance, if one contractor is using Dunn Edward's exterior stucco paint Evershield and another is using Dunn Edwards Trac-Cote, the estimates could vary quite a bit. Evershield cost $18 per gallon and Trac-Cote cost $9 per gallon. That difference in price could mean $500 on the estimate of a 2500 square foot stucco home.  If the contractor using Evershield is back-rolling the stucco and the contractor using Trac-Cote is thinning and just 'staining' you home the difference in materials could be as much as $1500. You home will be clean (stained with a new color), but certainly not painted and protected.

A home painted with Evershield  will look great for 20 years. A home stained with Trac-Cote will look good until the first rain and the dirt from the landscape rocks splashes up and stains the bottom foot of your stucco.

Currently we have our price list online. We also have links to wall covering manufacturers that can help you find ideas and wall covering patterns. Some of the wall covering sites have wall covering estimator programs and lots of pictures of rooms decorated with their materials.

Soon we will have a message board for you to ask your decorating questions. Questions like 'what is floating the wall mean?', or 'do I have to size the wall?' will be part of the message board and our frequently asked questions section.

A story section is also on it's way to this site. After 30+ years in the contracting business there are some very interesting stories to tell
