OUR TEAM

We have a great team of employees serving our clients in Dallas, Fort Worth, Mid-Cities, Arlington, Plano and surrounding areas. Many employees have been with McSweeney since the company’s inception.

Employee training and safety is a way of life at McSweeney Commercial Painting. Our team is constantly learning about the latest paint technologies and application techniques. Employees are trained with current OSHA requirements, including the OSHA 10 hour class for foremen, CPR and first aid, ladder safety, safe scaffold practices, and aerial and scissor lift certification. Monthly in-house safety trainings and weekly safety meetings are held for all employees.

John McSweeney

John McSweeney

President

John McSweeney has spent his entire professional life doing one thing: painting. He has worked as a painter, drywall finisher, foreman, project manager, estimator, general manager and, for more than 30 years, Owner/President of McSweeney Commercial Painting. He has built the company on long standing relationships with employees, customers and venders but prefers to call them friends.

John enjoys most things that end in ing: hunting, fishing, horseback riding, walking, working, but he did give up golfing (stupid game). Most weekends you can find him ranching in East Texas on a 226 acre cattle ranch he has owned since 2014. John hopes to expand the ranch and retire sometime in the future.
