Giving Back

admin • March 2, 2011

This past November McLain’s Painting was able to give back by helping others in need. We were able to take the skills that God allowed us to have and make a Knoxville resident’s home more enjoyable.

Janice Jinks, growing up in the South Knoxville area, has lived in Knoxville her whole life. She has spent most of her time giving back to others without wanting anything in return. A civil servant, who has a heart of gold.

McLain’s Painting and many other volunteers from Knoxville remodeled the interior of her home by priming and painting ceilings, walls, trim and kitchen cabinets. Our painters also refinished her older hardwood floors.
We love giving back and enjoy the smiles in return.
