41 Years of Integrity — Now Led by Nick Gainey
Hutch-N-Son Painting & Drywall was built over 41 years on a simple standard — do the prep right, communicate clearly, and stand behind the work. That standard did not change when Nick Gainey took ownership. It was the reason he wanted the company in the first place.
Nick is a Plano-area community member with deep roots across the Dallas metro. When the opportunity came to carry forward one of the most trusted painting companies in North Texas, he did not take it lightly. Before transitioning fully into the role, Nick spent time working alongside Pete Hutchinson — learning the processes, meeting the crews, and understanding firsthand what had made Hutch-N-Son the company Plano homeowners have called for four decades.
"Pete has remained involved through the transition — not because anything needed fixing, but because 41 years of relationships and craftsmanship are worth protecting. The same crews. The same two-year guarantee. The same standard on every project."
Pete Hutchinson's continued involvement during the transition has ensured that the knowledge, crew relationships, and quality standards built since 1985 have carried forward without interruption. The families and businesses across Plano, Frisco, Allen, and Richardson who have trusted Hutch-N-Son for years — many for multiple projects — are in the same hands that built that trust. Nick's commitment is straightforward: earn the next 41 years the same way the first 41 were earned, one project at a time.
If you have questions about the transition or want to talk through a project before committing, Nick is available by phone or through the estimate request form. Hutch-N-Son has always been a company where the owner is reachable — that has not changed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions Plano homeowners ask most before hiring a painting contractor. Don't see yours? Call us directly.
Pricing depends on the size of the project, the surfaces being painted, and the amount of prep work required. A standard interior room runs $400–$700. A full interior repaint of a 2,000 sq ft home typically runs $4,500–$8,000. Exterior repaints range from $3,500 to $10,000 depending on square footage, number of stories, and surface condition. Hutch-N-Son provides free on-site estimates with a written, itemized quote so you know exactly what is included before any work begins.
A standard interior room takes one to two days including prep, prime where needed, and two finish coats. A full interior repaint of a 2,000 sq ft home typically runs five to eight business days. Exterior repaints range from three to eight days depending on home size, number of stories, and the extent of surface prep required. Project timelines are included in every written estimate.
Hutch-N-Son offers a two-year written workmanship guarantee on all painting and drywall services. If any issue develops with the workmanship within two years of project completion, contact us and we will return to make it right. The two-year guarantee is included on every project at no additional cost and has been standard at Hutch-N-Son since the company's founding in 1985.
Yes. Hutch-N-Son carries full general liability insurance up to $1 million on every project. We hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and are members of the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America. Certificates of insurance are available on request before any work begins. Hiring an uninsured contractor in Texas creates personal liability exposure for the homeowner if a worker is injured on the property — our coverage eliminates that risk entirely.
Hutch-N-Son uses Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore products on all residential and commercial projects. For exterior work in North Texas, Sherwin-Williams Duration and Emerald Exterior are our standard specifications — both formulated with UV-resistant resins built for Texas heat. For interiors, Sherwin-Williams Emerald Interior and Benjamin Moore Aura deliver washable, low-VOC finishes. Cabinet refinishing projects use Sherwin-Williams Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel or Benjamin Moore Advance — hard-cure products that resist grease, moisture, and daily kitchen use.
Yes — drywall repair, patching, texture matching, and skim coating are handled in-house by the same crew that applies the finish coats. Most painting companies subcontract drywall work or skip prep steps entirely. When the same team is accountable for surface preparation and final finish quality, the result is smoother, the timeline is tighter, and there is no finger-pointing between trades if a correction is needed.

Texas Weather Is Hard on Exterior and Interior Paint
North Texas does not have a forgiving climate for exterior paint. Summer surface temperatures on south- and west-facing walls regularly exceed 160°F — accelerating the chalking, fading, and adhesion failure that standard acrylic coatings develop in three to four years when the wrong product or prep sequence is used. Hail storms create micro-fractures in paint films that allow moisture infiltration. Rapid temperature swings between 100°F summer afternoons and freezing winter nights expand and contract wood trim and siding, opening caulk joints and cracking paint films at transitions.
Inside, North Texas homes face humidity spikes during spring storms and months of dry forced-air heat in winter — conditions that cause interior paint to crack and peel when surface preparation is skipped or the wrong primer is used on patched drywall. Most interior paint failures in the Dallas-Plano area trace back to prep, not product. Skipping drywall repair, applying paint directly to unsealed patches, and not recaulking trim joints are the three most common shortcuts that produce callbacks within the first year.
Prep Done Right Before a Brush Comes Out
The difference between a paint job that lasts three years and one that lasts eight in North Texas is almost entirely in the preparation. Hutch-N-Son handles drywall repair, patching, and texture matching in-house — with the same crew that applies the finish coats. That means every surface is properly prepared before any paint goes on, and the same team is accountable for prep quality and final finish quality. Most painting failures in the Plano area are prep failures, not product failures. Hutch-N-Son's 41-year track record is built on getting the prep right every time.
For exterior projects, our process includes full surface inspection for cracking, peeling, and caulk failure before any pricing is finalized, power washing to remove chalk and contaminants, sanding failing paint, recaulking all window and door frames with flexible exterior caulk, and priming all bare and patched areas before finish coats. For interior projects, every wall and ceiling surface is patched, sanded smooth, and primed where needed before topcoats go on. Trim joints are caulked and baseboards recaulked at every repaint. None of these steps are skipped to reduce the project timeline.
A Simple Five-Step Process. No Surprises.
Serving Plano and the Surrounding Dallas Metro Since 1985
Hutch-N-Son Painting has worked across the Dallas-Plano metro for over four decades. We understand the housing stock in each community — the older established neighborhoods in Plano and Richardson with mature tree canopy and homes on their second or third repaint, the newer construction in Frisco and Allen with longer paint cycles but specific prep requirements around fresh caulk joints and concrete board siding, and the mix of ranch-style and two-story homes throughout McKinney and Carrollton. Each market has its own combination of surface conditions, HOA requirements, and climate exposure that informs how we approach the prep and product specification on every project.
