Lakewood CO - Where we live now...

We moved to Lakewood a few years ago and have really enjoyed getting to know our neighbors around town. We scoured the neighborhoods in our home search including the Green Mountain, Bowles, South Wadsworth, West Alameda, Rooney Rd and Kipling areas. We ended up in the Green Mountain area, but it was a hard decision with so many great neighborhoods around. Our method of painting which incorporates an "old school" hands-on approach is a great match for the homes in this great community. The residences in Lakewood are largely single family homes which is our specialty. We excel at prepping and painting houses (see our method) as we have vast experience with them. 

The homeowner's needs always come first whether it be scheduling or choosing a paint color. We pride ourselves on working with you to make sure we fulfill your vision of the look of your home. It is amazing how a well executed paint job can transform the appearance of your home while preserving and enhancing its value. We find it very rewarding when we look back on our work at the end of the job, and we look forward to the opportunity of serving you and will make every effort to deliver the low cost quality job for you.

Ken Caryl - One of our favorite spots...

Ken Caryl is a spectacular place and environment laced with trails and red rocks, a favorite hiking destination for my family and just minutes away! I have a special fondness for the Valley since yours is a community where it started for us. Over the years we have repaired and painted every model and type of home, we have done them all. With each season it is especially gratifying as we see more repeat customers. I embrace the opportunity to take care of your beautiful investments once and again. 

Fairly unique to the Valley is the severity of your weather. Water damage is prevalent, making it even more valuable to protect your exteriors with high quality work. We offer time tested solutions. For example, some of you may still have the original windows and are facing the prospect of comprehensive replacement. We may even offer the option to rebuild a select few to match, tastefully doing so in a way to facilitate proper drainage and prevention. I offer experienced insights and the skill to make it work.

Littleton - Where it all began for us...

I settled in Littleton during the early 1990's after several years teaching high school. It is here I started my painting company, eventually buying my home in Columbine Knolls. My family and I love this area, tucked in close to the foothills with lots of trails and Chatfield Reservoir just to our south. Combining competitive pricing with unsurpassed workmanship, it didn't take long for an enthusiastic client base to grow. Today we employ multiple crews to handle operations. All employees are still personally trained under my direct supervision to ensure each house receives the comprehensive quality and care my clients have come to expect. Yes, the craft of hand painting lives on!

We have always loved Littleton and my family has enjoyed the many parks and trails for years. It is a vibrant community with a strong economy and civic vision, and a great place to do business. House construction here comes in many architechtural types and we embrace the challenge of refreshing and enhancing the value of your home.

Highlands Ranch - Decades of jobs here and we know it well...

After decades of painting I have become very familiar with Highlands Ranch. It actually has one of the highest populations of any unincorporated community in the whole country, which underscores what a great place it is to live. Twenty five years of exterior work, with hundreds of houses under my belt, I have a deep understanding of the local needs and problems facing the homes in the area encompassing Ken Caryl, Governors Ranch, Columbine, Grant Ranch, Highlands Ranch, and the greater Littleton periphery.

Not only have I developed an expertise on how to fix and paint exteriors, but time has allowed me to revisit projects making sure our solutions stand the test of time. Almost all of my business is from word of mouth or decade old repaints, jobs which bring me great satisfaction. Hopefully my reputation will speak for itself as you look for a reputable painting company for perhaps your biggest investment — your home.

We Also Do Interior Painting...

Our Method - See How We Are Different! 

We take pride in everything we work on and have a proven methodology to ensure a top quality job is achieved.

Here is our general exterior procedure:

  • First we assess the overall condition of the complete exterior of your home, addressing potential siding as well as wood repair needs.
  • Any structural looseness (window, siding, trim, fascia, soffet) is then anchored, countersunk with screws.
  • All openings are caulked and sealed, and surfaces are rendered seamless and watertight.
  • We thoroughly scrape and sand to remove all loose paint. Any exposed wood surfaces are also sanded to restore integrity.
  • Removable fixtures are temporarily removed, including downspouts.
  • Bare wood is wire-brushed and primed.
  • Work is done by hand. See how our rolling & back-brushing method is better than spraying.
  • We typically use Sherwin Williams' finest Superpaint 100% acrylic latex paint.
  • There will be no paint where it does not belong! All work is done in a very neat and workmanlike manner.
  • No payment is accepted until completion and full customer satisfaction.

Testimonials

We are so pleased with how our house paint faired from the two hail storms last week. And we are convinced that it is because of your excellent painting process. Thank you for such quality work!

Chris Ackerman and his craftsmen have meticulously preserved and restored our home through the years with careful hand painting and structural restoration. Their professional attention to detail has added value and life to the appearance and function to our property.

Bill Bagwell

Littleton, CO

We have no hesitation in recommending Chris Ackermann. He is honest and straightforward in his approach to his work and business. He has demonstrated a high degree of attention to detail in his work, and the quality of his work has been excellent.

Missy and Mark Martino

Littleton, CO

I would never have anyone but Ackermann do my painting, and would recommend him to anyone. His clean-up was excellent and performance was of high quality. His preparation work was outstanding... his bids were accurate and he completed the jobs on-time.

Richard Davis

Lakewood, CO

Chris Ackermann and his crew painted our home in Columbine Knolls South. We are extremely pleased with the quality of the work that was done and the craftsmanship that was displayed throughout the process. Thanks again for your great work!

Terry and Jim McKerley

Littleton, CO

Chris Ackermann did a wonderful job.  We selected Ackermann because he does not spray the paint on - he brushes and rolls it in total, causing the paint to penetrate and adhere better. I will use Chris again for both interior and exterior painting.

Riggs and Bobbi Smith

Littleton, CO

I was very impressed with the time they took on the job, their attention to detail, and the fact the work was done by hand. In a day where shoddy work, questionable contractors and sub-standard materials are the norm, Ackermann Painting is the exception!
