Joe Badilla founded Badilla Painters with a simple mission: provide homeowners, architects, custom home builders and interior designers with superior quality interior and exterior finishings, as well as unparalleled customer service. In the early 1980s, Joe brought with him a passion for paints and finishes to New York. He worked with a high-end painting contractor, where he honed his eye for aesthetics, and developed a keen ability to listen carefully to truly understand the needs and expectations of the clients. In 1988, Joe launched Badilla Painters in the Hamptons, and has since expanded across Long Island to service New York City, New Jersey, Fairfield County, CT, and Palm Beach, FL, among other markets around the country. Badilla Painters prides itself on staying abreast of the latest trends in color and applications, even investing in research to develop new finishing technology, including magnetic plaster, chrome finishing and liquid metal application. This innovative approach to perfecting new products and processes has made Badilla Painters the ‘go-to’ finishing experts for top talent in the design community, including world-class architects, designers and builders. Additionally, Joe has assembled a premier team of skilled painters, plasterers, wallpaper installers and exterior experts who are masters of their craft. He also credits his team’s communication, coordination and efficiency on every project as the key to working as a trusted partner and exceeding their clients’ expectations.
