ABOUT SNAP PAINTING PLUS
Snap Painting Plus LLC was founded by Eddie St. Clair and Jeffrey Androla in 2018. Both Eddie and Jeff come from an extensive background in the general contracting business. They discovered their passion for the industry back in 2010 while working together on fast-track commercial developments. From their time together from 2010 to 2015 they oversaw and completed over 150 commercial projects from start to finish all the way up to $10 million in size. In 2015, Jeff decided to pivot and went to New York City to manage what would become the largest painting contractor in the New York City area, Precision Painting. During his 2 year tenure there Jeff supervised 150 painters while balancing completion of dozens of simultaneous, large scale residential and commercial projects. Eddie stayed in Louisville and was promoted to Vice President of his firm in 2016. During his tenure as Vice President, Eddie supervised dozens of employees and subcontractors on a daily basis. Overseeing all aspects of the construction process, he began to see the void for qualified, dependable finish work contractors in the Louisville area. It was at that time Jeff Androla had decided to come back home to his roots in Louisville. Shortly after, Eddie and Jeff reunited to form Snap Painting Plus, a full-service painting and finish work contractor. Snap Painting Plus has now completed over 350 residential, commercial, and industrial projects ranging from a single family home to a 150 unit ground-up apartment complex and a 200,000 square foot industrial warehouse facility. We stand out in the painting industry by being on-time, on-budget, and most of all honest.
