Company History

Carrigan Painting was established in 2010 in Amherst NY by Mr Carrigan, a third-generation painter and plasterer. With a lifelong interest in the building trades, my journey began at a young age working for my father's business, David G. Carrigan Plastering - the second generation of our family’s nearly century-long legacy that began in 1930. That tradition of craftsmanship and excellence continues to this day.

Along the way, I have worked for many renowned contractors in the Amherst/Clarence area while also caring for my ailing father, who retired in 2000. In 2007, he sadly passed away. After settling his estate, I embarked on a lifelong dream to establish Carrigan Painting in 2010. My knowledge spans various trades and encompasses all stages of residential construction.

My company focuses on residential Interior Painting and ceiling repairs, as well as specializing in traditional Plaster Repairs & Drywall Repair services. We enjoy the work and strive to consistently meet the high standards for which we are renowned. We are not perfect, but we try our best.

We primarily work in Amherst, Clarence, and Lancaster.

In 2016, we re-located from North Forest Rd, Amherst NY 14221 to Akron NY.

Carrigan is pronounced Kerrigan.

About Carrigan Painting

95+ years of Excellence!

Good things come in 3's

1930 - 2025+

3 Generations of Excellence

Our Family Tree is rooted in the building trades

Beginning in the 1930's there has been at least 1 Carrigan company operating in the Buffalo NY area. From my grandfather's company - William A. Carrigan Plastering & General Contracting, he built many of the homes and some commercial buildings in and around Buffalo NY. In addition to his Western New York work he also had multiple commercial projects in Pennsylvania and Ohio until the 1970's.

My parents generation decided to stay much more local to the Western New York region. While continuing plastering, they also branched out into drywall and interior painting. The Carrigan companies include, Town & Country Plastering (uncle), David G Carrigan Plastering (my father), Carrigan Drywall (cousin) and Carrigan Painting the company that I started.

The Carrigan Timeline



A word from the owner

Updated: September 22, 2025

Our website & blog is updated & maintained by Mr Carrigan. There is no stock content anywhere on my website or blog. A marketing company did not create any of the information on this website nor does a 3rd party handle any of our advertising. I added all the information (approximately 100,000 words, I am a naturally good writer), photos, videos. You can read more about my Website Development Project here.
I am a professional painter and plasterer by trade, marketing isnt my forte - no pushy sales team here! But building out this website has been enlightening and fun. I have learned a lot. I am very proud of my website, and I hope you find what your looking for.

I update our blog during and/or after most jobs with lots of photos, behind the scenes info, and sometimes a video of what we do.

-Dave
