ABOUT US

Hometown Experience You Can Trust

Pikka Painting is a full-service, hometown painting and repair company based in Pittsburgh. We offer professional painting, staining, power-washing, and light repair services, backed by over 23 years of hands-on experience. We are fully licensed and insured, giving you the confidence and peace of mind to entrust your home or business to us.

Whether it’s a full hospital interior, a cozy powder room, or something in between, we’ve seen — and done — it all. In 2024, owner Brian A. Bartkins decided to channel decades of trade and renovation work into Pikka Painting to deliver honest craftsmanship with integrity, quality, and clear communication.

Our Story & How We Work

From a young age, Brian has been immersed in hands-on work — painting, repairs, maintenance, even IT and construction tasks around town. Over the years he has helped build and maintain several local businesses, including performing repairs and renovations at places like Kindred Spirit Tattoo Co.

That broad background shaped the philosophy behind Pikka Painting: that good work means more than just paint on walls. It involves respect for your space, reliability, and an eye for detail. When you hire us, you get someone who shows up on time, works cleanly, communicates plainly, and takes pride in a job well done.

Our process always starts the same way — with a free estimate and open conversation. We discuss your vision, inspect the space, and recommend the best materials and approach. We then handle surface prep, painting or finishing using quality products, and leave your space clean and ready for use.

What Sets Us Apart

  • Decades of Experience. With over 23 years working across Pittsburgh, we’ve built a deep understanding of local homes, building types, and customer expectations.

  • Licensed & Insured. Your property is protected — we carry full licensing and insurance so you don’t have to worry about liability.

  • Skilled & Versatile. From hospital interiors to cozy rooms, siding jobs to power washing, we handle a broad range of painting and repair tasks.

  • Attention to Detail & Integrity. We believe good communication, transparency, and finishing touches matter just as much as the paint itself.

  • Local, Hometown Values. We’re a small, neighborhood-based business that treats each project like our own.
