A family company. A crew we're proud of.
Thirty years in the trade, a family company, and employees we train and insure ourselves.
The family
Wyatt & Sons, a family company
Wyatt & Sons is a family painting company in Federal Way. Randy Wyatt started it four years ago, but his thirty years in the trade reach back a lot further — he grew up in his parents' painting company and started at fourteen, in 1996, and never left it. A lot of the customers we serve today followed him here because they already knew his work. He walks the job himself, measures it himself and writes the bid himself, which is why the number doesn't change after we start.
It's a family business in the plain sense: Randy runs the jobs and the estimates, and the family pitches in on projects now and then. We live in Federal Way, right on the county line, and most of the homes we paint are within a half hour of our own.
In 2026 we made a decision a lot of contractors avoid: we put our focus squarely on what we're best at — residential and commercial painting, and the maintenance that keeps it lasting. We still take on remodeling now and then, but almost always for customers we've already painted for. They know our crew, they trust our work, and when they want the rest of the project handled by people they already like, we're glad to do it. Painting first, done better.
The crew
Employees, not subcontractors
Most painting companies send subcontractors. We don't. Every painter on your job is a Wyatt & Sons employee with full medical, dental and vision, trained by us, in our uniform, driving our van. It costs more to run a company this way, and that cost is exactly what you're paying for: the same faces every morning, work that looks the same on day one as it does on day ten, and a crew we can stand behind.
The one place that changes is remodeling. On the occasional remodel we take on — almost always for a customer we've already painted for — we bring in trade partners we know and trust for the work outside our own trade. When a job calls for that, we tell you up front who's doing what.
We run a small crew on purpose. One lead painter is on site every day and is the person you talk to. New painters learn our way of prepping a house before they ever touch a sprayer, and the ones who stick around earn a real path to lead painter. We'd rather turn a job down than put someone on it we haven't trained.
In the summer we also bring on a few young men — most headed to or home from college — for seasonal work. We're a Christian company, so we desire to teach them a real trade alongside the kind of work habits that carry into anything. Several come back year after year. You can read their stories on our careers page.
