When the commercial kitchen at The Kneddy Bakery in Concord needed painting between orders, Ruffino's Painting completed the job so quickly the owner described it as "knocking it out of the park." This responsiveness defines how owner Mike Ruffino runs his Wentzville-based painting operation, understanding that every project timeline represents a family waiting to use their kitchen or a business needing to reopen.
Mike founded Ruffino's Painting in 2012 and leads a team of ten professionals handling interior and exterior painting, cabinet refinishing, deck and fence staining, popcorn ceiling removal, and pressure washing. The company serves St. Charles County and surrounding communities within the greater St. Louis metro area, from single-room refreshes to complete new construction projects.
The fully insured team offers a three-year warranty on all workmanship, returning free of charge or at half price for any surface issues. Ruffino's Painting has been BBB Accredited since December 2023 and demonstrates community commitment through their annual free painting giveaway for St. Charles County families facing hardships.
Deck and fence staining represents a significant portion of Ruffino's Painting work. Jill Lord was "very happy with the work" after having her fence and deck power washed and stained. Heidi Box noted the entire crew of six people "stained our large deck" along with porch uprights and a greenhouse before winter weather arrived. The company uses protective staining solutions for weathering and decay.
