Brad Patterson
Owner
Brad resides in the beautiful community of Somerset. After many years of working together with father in the painting industry, in June of 1999 Brad opened his own Benjamin Moore signature store in Coldbrook. To grow the business a second location was opened in New Minas in 2009. Merging both locations in 2013 he moved to the town of Kentville. This central location is more accessible to clients that showcases a charming bright showroom that has allowed the business to flourish. After 20 years of business and providing exceptional products and services to the valley Brad and his team look forward to many more.
Graham Taylor Paint Technician
aka ( the mover and the mixer )
Graham began his career in his home town of Canning where he learned the technique of paint mixing, tinting and the ability to tweak and create custom colours. Graham joined us this year and has become an important part of the staff. He enjoys the busy atmosphere and helping both contractors and home owners. Also his ability to pick up 5 gallon buckets of paint like they’re empty continues to impress us everyday.
