Colby Joseph Davis didn’t build Davis Painting in a vacuum. He built it in communities across Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and those communities have supported him from day one. That’s something he takes seriously.
The company goes out of its way to hire locally whenever possible. When they’re working in a neighborhood, they treat every home like it belongs to a friend. They sponsor local youth sports teams, participate in community events, and support small businesses in the areas they serve.
For Colby, business isn’t just about making money. It’s about being a positive presence in the places where they work. That means treating people with respect, delivering on promises, and giving back when possible.
He’s also found that being community-focused is just good business. People want to work with companies they trust, and trust is built through consistent, positive interactions over time. When Davis Painting shows up and does great work in a neighborhood, word spreads. That’s how they’ve grown without spending a fortune on advertising.
Community also means taking care of the people inside the business. Davis Painting is a tight-knit team, and Colby wants everyone to feel like they’re part of something bigger than just a job. They celebrate together, support each other through challenges, and build relationships that go beyond the clock.
Being rooted in community keeps Colby grounded and reminds him why he does this work in the first place.
