Why Choose Haar Painting?
Proven Local Experience That Actually Matters
Three generations strong. Family-owned since 1985. Haar Painting brings nearly four decades of hands-on experience working on older residential properties, modern commercial spaces, and large institutional facilities like schools throughout Toledo, Perrysburg, Sylvania, Maumee, Findlay, and surrounding communities. As a family-owned business now in its third generation, we've built our reputation on continuity, accountability, and craftsmanship passed down through the years. From detailed prep on historic homes to large-scale projects like Eastwood High School, our team understands how to adapt methods, materials, and scheduling to the job at hand.
The result: finishes that last longer, look better, and perform as expected because they were done right the first time.
Thorough Surface Preparation & Clear Process
Paint doesn't fail, preparation does. That's why Haar Painting places as much emphasis on prep as on application.
Every project begins with a clear plan that may include:
Power washing or hand washing based on surface condition
Scraping, sanding, caulking, and priming as required
Moisture and substrate checks: critical in Ohio's climate
Protection of landscaping, floors, equipment, and occupied spaces
For commercial clients, we also offer phased work plans to minimize disruption to operations, tenants, or staff.
You'll always know what's happening and why.
High-Quality Coatings Matched to the Job
Not all paints are created equal, and using the wrong product can shorten the life of a finish dramatically.
We select coatings based on traffic level, exposure, and expected lifespan, including:
Residential Applications
Low-VOC and zero-VOC paints
Fade-resistant exterior coatings
Moisture- and mildew-resistant formulas
Commercial & Institutional Applications
High-durability, washable finishes
Scuff- and impact-resistant coatings
Epoxies and specialty industrial finishes where required
Our goal isn't just a great finish on day one. It's long-term performance.

Haar Painting is known for:
Clear, written schedules
Evening and weekend availability when needed
