From a single room to a full commercial job, Strayer Painting & Design Co brings 26 years of skill to every project. We paint how we'd want it done in our own home.

Offices, shops, restaurants, and more. We work around your schedule to minimize disruption and deliver a professional finish that impresses clients.

Not sure on color? Derek has a trained designer's eye. He'll walk you through combinations, finishes, and what works for your specific space and light.
There are painters who just slap paint on walls. And there's Derek Strayer, who treats every project like it's his own home. Here's what you get when you call us.
Full liability and workers' comp coverage. You're 100% protected. Hiring uninsured painters is a serious risk you don't need to take.
If Derek says he'll be there at 8am, he's there at 8am. Respect for your time is non-negotiable on every project.
Drop cloths, tape, careful masking — and a spotless cleanup when we're done. You won't find paint on your floors or in your bushes.
Derek isn't a franchise or call center. He personally does the painting — or directly oversees every crew member on your project.
Benjamin Moore and other premium brands. We don't cut corners on materials. Quality paint means fewer coats, better coverage, and longer life.
Born and raised in the trade. That kind of experience shows in the finish. Straight lines. Even coverage. No drips, no holidays, no shortcuts.
It seems like saving money on a cheaper painter makes sense. But the real numbers tell a different story. Here's what actually happens when you cut corners.

"Hired Strayer Painting to refinish two decks. They went above and beyond and did the job right. Fully sanded the old stain off, fixed the handrail, and put two coats of stain on. Looks amazing. Showed up on time, did what they said they would do, cleaned up everything, and did a great job. Would hire again."
Derek didn't fall into painting — he was born into it. After 26 years of mastering the craft, he brings a rare combination of technical skill, design intuition, and honest work ethic that's hard to find anywhere in the Ozarks.
He's a local family man who has called the Table Rock Lake area home for over 15 years. The winding shorelines, tall timber, and beautiful lakeside properties aren't just his inspiration — they're his community. He paints his neighbors' homes with the same care he'd give his own.
Color selection, finish selection, prep guidance — Derek handles all of it personally. You're not getting a salesman who hands off the job. You're getting Derek, start to finish.
There's a big difference between a painter and a craftsman. A painter slaps paint on walls. A craftsman studies the surface, preps it properly, selects the right materials, and executes a finish that holds up for a decade or more.
Derek paints the way he'd want his own home painted. That standard doesn't change whether you're spending $500 on a bedroom or $15,000 on a full exterior. Every project gets his full attention, his full skill set, and his personal guarantee.
The Table Rock Lake area has been his canvas for 15+ years. Decks that have seen a thousand sunsets. Log homes on the water. Kitchens where families gather. He takes that seriously — and it shows in every finished project.
