About Us

Trusted Company

In 1895 Russell Hinton, the founder of our company, began his career as a desk polisher in San Francisco. Over time and during his travels, Mr. Hinton imported European craftsmen who displayed innovative and unique painting techniques. In 1985, to add to an already established interiors division, Russell Hinton Co. expanded its operation by adding a drywall division.

Since that time, Russell Hinton Co. has become a full service, premier painting and drywall firm with standards of quality surpassing its competitors and with more than 80 skilled tradesmen who are dedicated union employees with a passion for quality and perfection in their work.

As a long time, well established painting and drywall firm, Russell Hinton Co. has participated in numerous high profile commercial and residential projects both large and small, all over the San Francisco Bay Area.
