Pete's Pro Painters began with Petros Georgilas, known around Pittsburgh as "Pete the Painter," who launched the company in 2014 with a hands-on approach to every brushstroke. After Pete's passing in 2022, his daughter Aleah Georgilas stepped into the leadership role and has grown the operation across Allegheny, Washington, and Butler counties while keeping the family-first mindset intact.
The crew handles residential interior and exterior painting, kitchen cabinet refinishing, drywall hanging and finishing, epoxy floor coatings, and pressure washing for both homeowners and commercial properties including multi-family complexes and hotels. Customers regularly mention crew leaders Gabe, Edgar, Josh, Anthony, and Eric by name, alongside Aleah in the office coordinating estimates and schedules.
Backed by a 2-year workmanship warranty, OSHA-certified boom lift operators, and a fleet of branded vehicles rolling through the Pittsburgh metro, the team brings a protect-prep-paint-pristine process to every job site. The company is a Pittsburgh Airport Area Chamber of Commerce member and maintains an active presence on social media with behind-the-scenes project content.
