Saul began his painting career in 2000. He found he had a natural knack for painting. Worked for a few painting contractors in the valley for several years and when a client in the valley had a home at the coast that needed painted, the company he was working for sent Saul to do the job. He stripped and re-stained that home, and when the neighbors saw how great it looked after he was finished, they wanted their house re-stained as well. They continued to gain work from word of mouth, and Saul began to gain a reputation at the coast as the one to call for staining or painting.
In 2007, he started his own business, Most Wanted Painters, Inc. In the beginning, it was Saul along with his brother. Saul’s business reputation grew as he provided great customer service and meticulous attention to detail.
Then 2008, just one year later, the economy took a hit and so did most painting contractors at the coast. But Saul seemed to push through the trying times. With a good reputation and referrals from satisfied customers, he was able to grow his business when many others struggled or went out of business.
Today, Saul employs 10-20 painters, depending on the season. He sets a high standard for meticulous work and insists that ever painter he employs understand the importance of attention to details and taking care of the little things. Every employee works hard to ensure they are meeting the standards that Saul has set for his company and his employees.
In 2018, Saul moved his homebased office from Lincoln City to Newport and hired an Office Manager, Yvette Quale. With the addition of Yvette, he has been able to add Color Consulting to the services we offer. This is a service not offered by other painting contractors in the area.
With a reputation for client satisfaction, an exceptional work ethic and an innate ability to predict the crazy coastal weather (ok, maybe not every time it’s going to rain), Saul has built a business that local contractors, homeowners, multi-family facilities and government entities have come to rely on for their painting needs.
Saul is married and is the father of three, two boys and one girl. In his spare time, Saul enjoys fishing, enjoying the outdoors, and spending time with his family.
