Led by owner Shawn Sivils with over 40 years of hands-on painting experience, The Painting Company has served the greater Omaha and Bellevue area since 2005. The team has built a following around cabinet refinishing work that customers say transforms outdated kitchens into spaces that look factory-new, alongside full interior, exterior, and commercial painting for homes and businesses across Nebraska and western Iowa.
Crew members including painter Nick, office coordinator Lori, and field lead Noah handle projects ranging from single-bedroom refreshes and three-bathroom repaints to multi-structure commercial properties and horse arenas. Reviews highlight same-day estimate turnarounds, on-time arrivals with clear scheduling communication, and a willingness to go beyond the original scope. One homeowner described drywall crack repairs completed at no extra cost alongside a kitchen and dining room repaint. Repeat customers and neighbor referrals make up a visible share of the client base, with at least two reviewers returning for second and third projects.

Ky Ed shared a detailed account of his crew discovering cracked drywall corners during a kitchen and dining room repaint. The team "fixed some drywall problems in corners where it had cracked not in the bid" without additional charges. Laura Castro noted that when an issue arose during her project, Shawn "immediately took care of it and made sure it was resolved." These examples point to a hands-on owner who prioritizes customer satisfaction over rigid scope enforcement.
