Now hiring · Kansas City
Truecoat is a residential and light-commercial painting company in the Kansas City metro, and we’re growing. We’re looking for painters who care about the boring parts — the prep, the clean lines, the protected home — because that’s the work we’re known for. Do it right and you’ll have steady, year-round hours (interiors keep us busy all winter), premium tools and sprayers in your hands, and a real path from painter to crew lead. No living out of a truck three states over — our jobs are right here across the metro, and you’re home for supper.
Why work at Truecoat
We win jobs on the quality of the work, not the lowest bid. If a crisp cut line and a smooth wall are their own reward to you, you’ll fit right in.
Painting stalls for a lot of crews in winter. Not here — we shift to interiors and cabinet work when it’s cold, so the schedule (and the paycheck) stays full all twelve months.
Interior, exterior, cabinets, staining, spray finishing, prep and carpentry — you build a full skill set, not one repetitive task, and we’ll train you on the equipment.
We promote from within. Prove you show up, do clean work, and treat customers right, and there’s a clear path to crew lead, foreman, and estimator here.

What we offer
Painters, crew leads, and foremen are all paid for experience and craft. We pay for people who are worth it, and we raise pay as your skills grow.
Health, dental, and vision coverage, paid time off plus paid holidays, and referral and quality bonuses when you bring us good people and great work.
Interiors and cabinet work keep the crew busy through the Kansas City winter — full weeks and a dependable paycheck all twelve months, not a seasonal layoff.
We train you on our prep standards and finishing systems, and every painter works with premium brushes, rollers, and sprayers we provide and maintain — you don’t buy your own kit.
We promote from within: painter to crew lead to foreman to estimator. Prove yourself and the next rung — and the pay that comes with it — is yours.
A local, owner-run team that does the work right and has each other’s backs on every job. You’re a name here, not a number.
