JD MacGillivray, Owner and Lead Contractor, MacGillivray Painting & Decorating
We visit your home, assess what needs to be done and then put together a detailed quote that confirms exactly what house painting services we will be providing.
If you have a house painting deadline, we’ll meet it. If we don’t think we can, we won’t take your job on.
As your trusted painting contractor, we show up when we say we will.
In addition to an 8000 Lumen tripod light, we wear high-intensity headlamps all day long to ensure we never miss a spot when repairing, preparing or painting your house.
Proper preparation is the difference between a mediocre paint job and a great paint job. Our house painting prep work is second to none.
We start your house painting job and work till it’s complete. The only time we might leave your site is when materials require extended time to dry before they can be painted.
Our owner, JD MacGillivray, does more than prepare your house painting quote. He’s our lead painting contractor so he’s always doing the work and available to answer your questions.
When the house painting is complete we dust and vacuum, move furniture back into place and re-hang your pictures.
Our goal as house painters is not to wow you by getting in and out of your house in a day. We want to impress you with the final painted product. The key to accomplishing this is proper house painting preparation. Sometimes repair and patching compounds, caulking and primers—even certain paints—require overnight drying before a coat of paint can be applied. We don’t compromise on preparation. As professional, experienced painting contractors we take all the time that is necessary to ensure your project is properly prepared before we begin painting.
“We have used the house painting and decorating services of JD for over 25 years. There is little JD doesn’t do. Many jobs have required repairs, drywalling and minor renovations. He’s handled it all for us.”
–Elisabeth & Randall Linton, Toronto, ON
“I have had JD do work in my home for over 20 years. He often has a wait list, but guaranteed if you get him, you will have the most professional house painting possible done in your home.”
Susan Wagner, Beeton, ON
“We have had the distinct privilege of having JD fulfill our house painting and decorating needs for over 35 years. His craftsmanship as a contractor is of the highest quality.”
Marilee & Ron Harris, Aurora, ON
“Although our foyer is open to the second floor, this was not a problem for JD, and the stucco was removed with minimal mess. We love the transformation that our painting contractor, JD, created in our home!”
–Deb Elford, Newmarket, ON
“Our home needed a painting makeover. We called JD. He walked us through all the possibilities and did a wonderful, professional job. We couldn’t be happier with JD as our painting contractor.”

“The quality of his workmanship is far superior to any other house painter/decorator we’ve used in the past. JD is a true professional.”
