LOCAL PEOPLE. COMPLEMENTARY EXPERTISE.
Meet the O’Donnells.
Locally family-owned since 2017, Hard Works Painting brings Tony and Erin O’Donnell’s complementary skills to Central Oregon homes. Tony grew from preparation work into painting leadership. His construction background and interest in coatings chemistry and product data sheets shape the careful preparation, suitable products and clear explanations behind your finish.
Erin, a former local Sherwin-Williams manager trained in professional color consultation, starts with your home, your preferences and the atmosphere you want to create. She connects color guidance with thoughtful business organization and can help with HOA color submittals. Together, they value people, accountability and developing a craft—so your painting project feels considered, from the first conversation to the final walkthrough.
RESPECT FOR YOUR HOME. CLARITY FOR YOU.
What you can expect
from our team.
We are your painting and finishing contractor. For new-home and remodel projects, we paint and finish work built by your builder or remodel contractor.
Clarity before the first coat
An informed estimate explains the proposed surfaces, preparation and products. We agree on the painting or finishing scope and discuss how the work will be coordinated with you or your builder.
Care in the work itself
Property protection and surface preparation come first. Suitable coatings, adequate coverage and application guided by manufacturer specifications support the finish—not shortcuts with the material.
A finish you understand
Clear communication and a final walkthrough help you understand the completed work. Practical washing, periodic checks and touch-up guidance help you care for it afterward.
THE WORK BEFORE THE COLOR
A lasting finish
starts underneath.
Clean, sound, properly prepared surfaces help paint adhere, look even and hold up through Central Oregon’s seasons.
Clean, repair and protect
Dirt and loose coating are removed, localized repairs are assessed, and nearby surfaces, landscaping and furnishings are protected before work begins.
Sand, prime and prepare
Rough edges and uneven areas are smoothed, and a primer suited to the surface and the selected coating is applied where it’s needed.
REAL HOMES. THOUGHTFUL FINISHES.
Our work, in the details.
PRODUCT KNOWLEDGE. PRACTICAL CHOICES.
The right paint
for the right surface.
Your surface, existing coatings, use, exposure and desired finish inform the primer and topcoat. Preparation and manufacturer application specifications matter as much as the name on the can.
SOLID-COLOR EXTERIOR WOOD STAIN
Rodda Paint Co.
Rodda SharkSkin is a waterborne acrylic-and-urethane hybrid solid-color stain for exterior wood decks, fences and siding. Its opaque finish masks wood grain and color variations; preparation and the existing coating guide the system we recommend.
- Solid-hide color for properly prepared exterior decks, fences and siding.
- Acrylic-and-urethane hybrid formulation with water cleanup.
- Cleaning, failed-coating removal and primer needs follow Rodda’s technical data sheet.
These products illustrate available coating systems, not a fixed specification for every job. We choose the paint system with you for the surface and its condition, and can review customer- or builder-specified coatings for suitability.
Suitable water-based or low-VOC options depend on the exact coating and application. Preparation, coverage and manufacturer specifications guide the work.

LET’S MAKE IT YOURS
Your home.
Our hard work.
01How do I request a complimentary estimate?+
Tell us about your property, the surfaces you want painted and your preferred timing using the estimate form, or call (541) 382-3449. We will discuss the project and what needs to be reviewed before preparing a scope.
02Do you help choose paint colors?+
Yes. Complimentary professional color consultation is part of our consultative approach. Erin helps you consider lighting, fixed finishes, undertones and physical samples.
03What paint brands do you use?+
We use products from Sherwin-Williams, Rodda Paint Co. and Pittsburgh Paints. The choice is project-specific: surface condition, existing coatings, exposure, room use and the desired finish inform a suitable primer and coating system.
04Can you match a specified coating?+
Yes. If you or your builder have specified a product, we can discuss matching it after reviewing its suitability for the surface, existing finish and application conditions. We clarify the preparation and coating requirements before agreeing on the painting or finishing scope.
05Why does preparation matter so much?+
A coating is only as sound as the surface beneath it. Cleaning, repairs, sanding and appropriate primer help create the conditions for adhesion and a consistent finish.
06Can you help maintain the finish later?+
Yes. Ask about condition reviews, appropriate washing and touch-ups. Maintenance is tailored to exposure and wear; no coating has one guaranteed lifespan in every setting.
