Steve Holloway Painting has served Bakersfield and the surrounding Kern and Tulare County communities for more than four decades, handling residential and commercial painting projects alongside a growing concrete coating division. The company operates as the only certified Penntek dealer in the region, applying polyurea-based floor systems that cure in a single day for garages, patios, pool decks, and driveways.
Crew members such as Sandra, Mario, TJ, Kevin, Ben, Daniel, and Mike appear by name across hundreds of customer accounts, a pattern that reflects the stability of an in-house workforce rather than rotating subcontractors. Interior and exterior painting, cabinet refinishing, drywall repair, pressure washing, and light carpentry round out the service list.
A 100% satisfaction guarantee and a lifetime warranty on floor coating projects back every installation, while a CSLB-licensed and BBB-accredited corporate structure adds a layer of formal accountability. Clients from Bakersfield to Fresno, Visalia, and as far as Lone Pine have trusted the team to transform spaces ranging from private garages to medical facilities and historic churches.
