Why Our Move Means Better Service for the Triangle
For over 22 years, A Touch of Color Painting & General Contracting LLC has been more than a painter of choice. We’ve been a part of the fabric of the Raleigh community. From the historic homes in Five Points to the growing neighborhoods in Brier Creek and Cary. We have spent two decades perfecting the home transformation process.
Today, we are thrilled to announce a significant milestone in our journey. To better serve our clients and accommodate our growing team of specialists, we have a new announcement. We have completed the relocation of our home base. Moving from our longtime home office at 10121 Knotty Pine Lane, Raleigh, NC 27617, to a new spot at 11928 Straight A Way Lane, Raleigh, NC 27613 was not easy. However, we are excited for what 2026 brings. Our new premises are even more centrally located in the areas we serve. Neighborhoods in Wake Forest, Durham, and North Raleigh are a short trip.
Our address is changing, but our core values stay strong. These values have made us “The Raleigh Paint Contractor,” as our website states. And these values remain as solid as the surfaces we protect.
A Look Back After 22 Years
When we launched A Touch of Color in 2004, we had a clear goal. We wanted to bring professionalism and transparency to the home service industry. We didn’t want to be just another “company with ladders.” We aimed to be a comprehensive solution for homeowners seeking premium service.
Over the last 22 years, we’ve seen the Raleigh area evolve, and we’ve evolved with it. Our website is a go-to resource for homeowners looking for expert advice on products and services. Due to recent Google updates, we had to remove over 60 “How to Articles” articles. However, we always put the customer experience at the center of our local success. This is true whether we provide cold-weather guidance for exterior painting or help a business owner paint a commercial space without disrupting operations.
Our roughly 12 years at Knotty Pine Lane served us well. Being close to Aviation and 540 allowed us to build a reputation for efficiency and expertise in Apex and Cary. Our general contracting license in 2020 increased our service capabilities. We added complex siding installations, gutter installations, and full exterior home renovations. In 2025, we recognized the need for a space that reflected our expansion.
Storing materials and equipment can also cause logistical issues. Operating a small office in a townhouse or community presents parking and logistical challenges of its own.
Why the New Address
We do a lot of driving to and from projects. Estimating is also a daily grind. Location is everything in the contracting world. Our new office at 11928 Straight A Way Lane is in the 27613 zip code. This location gives us easy access to Northwest Raleigh, Creemore Road, 540, and Hwy 98.
Black Horse Run also does not have strict homeowner rules. So, a parked truck in the drive won’t hurt a thing. However, this move isn’t merely about more space. It’s about logistics and better service delivery to our clients. Our new facility allows for:
- Improved Project Coordination: The new space enables our managers and team leaders to coordinate comprehensive solutions more effectively. This reduces the cost associated with deliveries and pickups.
- Faster Response Times: Our central location enables our crews to meet with Courtney more frequently. This is crucial when serving places in Durham and Wake Forest. It allows us to operate with unprecedented efficiency.
- Improved Equipment Management: We use specialized tools for siding, deck staining, and gutter work. Our new home keeps our tools stored in top condition. It also reduces the overhead associated with storage and warehouse fees. We are ready to deliver the “thorough service” our clients expect.
The Difference: Beyond our Work
If you’ve followed our blog or explored our services, you know that we are much more than just a painting company. We are a full-service contractor and home repair provider. Our core business is protecting your home’s exterior and enhancing its interior spaces.
One of the unique aspects of our business is our “one-stop shop” philosophy. Some people refer to it as “turnkey service.” We’ve seen too many homeowners struggle to coordinate a home improvement project with a single company. We are often asked if we know someone. Which is why we feature recommended companies on our contact page.
Here at A Touch of Color, we provide exterior repairs, replacements, installations, and the finish coat under one roof. If you have wood rot, siding damage, or deck needs before painting or staining, we’ll take care of it all for you.
This integrated approach is why we can offer our industry-leading warranty. We don’t just paint over problems. We fix the underlying issues to ensure your home’s “Touch of Color” lasts for years to come.
Transparency: Our Core Value
As we move into 11928 Straight A Way Lane, we want to reaffirm our “No Games, No Gimmicks” promise. This approach has defined us for 22 years.
One of the most visited sections of our site explains our quoting process. We believe that a homeowner should never be left guessing. That is why we provide comprehensive, itemized quotes. We cover every detail. This includes prep work, pressure washing, and the specific products we use for each job. This transparency helps our clients see our recommendations clearly. This means that you can then make informed decisions without feeling pressured.
Efficiency and expertise aren’t just buzzwords for us. They are the benchmarks of our daily operations. Our move to the new Raleigh office is a physical manifestation of that efficiency.
What this Relocation Means to our Current & Future Clients
If you’re on our schedule for an interior refresh or spring exterior renovation, don’t worry! The move won’t delay our field operations at all. In fact, you’ll likely see our branded trucks around the 27613 area even more frequently!
For those who have supported us over the last two decades, we want to say thank you. Thanks to your referrals, reviews, and support, we’ve grown from a small local painting company to a top-rated contractor in the Triangle.
With over 152 reviews, we aim to maintain the high service we started. We invite you to follow our journey, as another goal is to grow our YouTube channel. There, we will continue to share professional insights on new products, color trends, and home maintenance tips. And a larger space allows us a better opportunity to film professional content.
Still Your Neighborhood Painter & Contractor
The paint and new location may be fresh, but the hands doing the work are the same. We still have Emilio and Ramon. The ones with the experience you’ve trusted over the past 6 years.
If you want painters in Raleigh, NC, to update your living room, we can help. If you need a licensed contractor for outside work, we’re still here for that, too.
