About Me
I’m Tyler Ritchie, a 42-year-old craftsman with a lifelong passion for transforming spaces and preserving beauty. I grew up in Pleasant Hill, California, and have called the Bay Area home my entire life. My journey in the trade began on job sites, learning from my grandfather and uncle, both skilled painters. By the time I was 18, I was a working foreman, leading crews and sharpening my skills.
Over the years, I’ve built a career centered on high-end residential painting, with experiences that deepened my expertise. I spent several years in a custom cabinet shop perfecting finish work and had the honor of mentoring under a Smithsonian-trained expert in museum-quality antique restoration. Those opportunities shaped my precision and dedication to excellence.
Today, my business specializes in breathing new life into treasured pieces and spaces. From antique restoration to front door and garage door refinishing, as well as cabinet touch-ups, restoration, and refinishing, I take pride in delivering craftsmanship that lasts—right here in the Bay Area I’ve always called home.
