VanDerKolk Painting: Your Local Rockford Commercial Painting Experts

Since our start in 1991, VanDerKolk Painting has evolved from a residential painting company in Grand Rapids into one of West Michigan’s most trusted names in commercial painting. Today, we proudly serve Rockford businesses with the same commitment to precision, professionalism, and outstanding craftsmanship that built our reputation. 


What sets us apart? Unlike many competitors, we never subcontract our work. Every project is handled by our own full-time, highly trained team. This enables us to maintain complete control over scheduling, quality, and safety throughout the entire process. Our painters hold certifications in RRP lead paint removal, lead abatement, and aerial lift operation, ensuring code-compliant, expert results every time. 


We make your experience hassle-free from day one. To get started, we’ll visit your Rockford property to evaluate the scope, answer questions, and deliver clear, transparent pricing. Throughout the project, we keep you informed, and once the work is complete, we back it with a warranty for your total peace of mind.

Why Commercial Painting Matters for Rockford Businesses

In a city like Rockford, presentation and professionalism are key to making a strong first impression. Whether you operate an office, storefront, or industrial space, a well-executed paint job communicates quality, trust, and attention to detail. 


Michigan’s weather takes a toll on building exteriors. Snow, rain, and UV rays can quickly wear down unprotected surfaces. That’s why we apply tough, weather-resistant coatings that shield your property from the elements and keep it looking sharp for years. Indoors, we use low-VOC, high-performance paints that not only look great but also support healthier air quality and resist daily wear and tear. 


Investing in professional painting protects your property, enhances your brand, and creates a polished, welcoming atmosphere year-round.

Frequently Asked Questions
