The story of Michael Bailey Painting began back in 1982, when the owner learned the painting trade from his uncle in Scottsdale, Arizona. After a year of hands-on work and running a drywall and painting business, he returned to Oregon in 1994 and officially started his own company. As Madras continues to develop with new homes and commercial spaces, the need for reliable paint stripping and surface preparation has grown. Property owners in Madras want experienced professionals who understand how Central Oregon’s climate affects paint, siding, and wood surfaces.
