About Us: Lake Norman's Top-Trusted Painting Company

About Trailblaze Paints Why Trailblaze Paints Is the Lake Norman Painting Company You Can Trust

When you’re investing in a painting project for your home or business, you want more than a contractor who can roll paint. You want a team that will show up on time, communicate clearly, and treat your space with care. You want craftsmanship you can be proud of and a process that doesn’t disrupt your life. That’s exactly what Trailblaze Paints delivers.

As a leading Lake Norman painting company, we’ve earned our reputation by exceeding expectations, not just meeting them. From the first call to the final walkthrough, our customers enjoy a refreshingly professional experience built on trust, respect, and attention to detail. We know the horror stories people have about hiring painters: missed deadlines, messy crews, uneven finishes, poor communication. So we set out to create a better way—where the results speak for themselves, and the journey getting there is smooth, stress-free, and even enjoyable.

We proudly serve homeowners and business owners who value professionalism, high-quality finishes, and local service. We don’t cut corners, and we don’t treat your home like just another job site. We treat it like our own.

Our Story: How Trailblaze Paints Got Started

Trailblaze Paints was founded in February 2020 by Jack Magee. Starting a company just as the world was shutting down wasn’t easy—but Jack had a clear mission: to build a painting business that would stand out by putting people first and never compromising on integrity.

After working in the industry and seeing how often customers were let down by poor service or inconsistent work, Jack believed there had to be a better way. He envisioned a painting company that combined premium craftsmanship with unmatched communication and care. One that would restore trust in an industry that too often leaves clients frustrated.

So, in the middle of uncertainty, Trailblaze Paints was born. The company began by focusing on quality over quantity, investing in the right people, and building a reputation based on word-of-mouth and 5-star reviews. Today, Trailblaze Paints is proud to be Mooresville’s #1 rated painting company and one of the most trusted names across the Lake Norman area.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: To exceed our clients’ expectations by delivering exceptional craftsmanship, honest communication, and a respectful, seamless experience from start to finish. At Trailblaze Paints, we believe our job isn’t just to apply paint. It’s to take stress off your plate, help you feel proud of your home or business again, and deliver a final result that reflects care in every brushstroke. Whether it’s a residential repaint, a kitchen cabinet transformation, or a commercial upfit, we approach each project with a commitment to excellence.

Our Vision

Our vision is to raise the standard for painting services in Lake Norman by combining craftsmanship with character. We aim to be more than the best painting company in the area—we want to be the one people trust, refer, and return to for years to come. We believe painting is about more than color. It’s about changing how people feel in a space, increasing property value, and creating a home or business environment that supports comfort, confidence, and style. We envision a future where every client feels heard, cared for, and wowed by the results.
