Spring is the natural time for sprucing up around the house so this is an especially busy season for Hansen Custom Painting. Owner Chris Hansen and his crews are out and about, working on new homes and any others that need sprucing up inside and outside.
 
Chris is a third-generation painting professional who believes in providing quality work for his residential and commercial customers, whether it’s putting drywall and painting one room, restoring a historic home, painting a new house or remodeling a home. “We handle it all,” Chris says.

"Handling it all" is not an inflated claim.  Hansen's wife is Jackye Crane, president of Crane Builders, a company started by her father, Jimmy Crane in the 1980s.  Jackye grew up working alongside her father, who developed a reputation for meticulous craftsmanship. 

In 2010, Jackye graduated with honors from LSU with a degree in Construction Management.  She officially took over the helm of Crane Builders in 2017.  

She and Hansen worked together on many projects through the years and married in 2016. The couple enjoy working together on projects, each of them bringing experience and a love of their professions to the table. 

The work and family environment extends to the Hansen Custom Painting crew, many of whom have been with Chris for years. He describes the team members as dependable and dedicated to the shared goal of providing quality service to each customer.
 
Safety also is something that’s important to Hansen Custom Painting and the crews carefully follow guidelines for coatings and equipment that are called for by OSHA.
 
Another thing that sets Hansen Custom Painting apart is the use of high quality paint products, which make their paint jobs look fresh for years. It’s an investment that Chris says, “makes our work an exceptional value.”

And Chris has a favorite quote when talking about making an investment in a home.
 
“Like my father-in-law says, ‘If you think hiring an expert is expensive, just wait ‘til you hire an amateur.’”
