Our Culture

Our Story

Most people have been burned by a contractor at least once.
The no-shows. The half-finished work. The mess left behind. The feeling you’ve wasted your time and money.

We exist so you never have to experience that again.

At Alba Premium Painting, we believe professional painting should be a given. The real difference is how we deliver it, through a white glove customer journey that removes stress, eliminates uncertainty, and puts your needs at the center of everything we do.

Our clients are active grandparents and busy professionals who’ve spent their lives setting a high bar. They take pride in their home, because it’s more than walls and ceilings. It’s their sanctuary, the place where the world stops, and the moments that matter happen. They expect clear communication, respect for their time, and a flawless finish, every single time.

That’s why we follow our proven 7-Step Alba Process, built on Simplicity, Certainty, and Speed without ever sacrificing quality: 

Daniel Hickey

Owner & Estimator

 “With over 20 years in the construction industry, I’ve worked as a builder, finish carpenter, and business owner. Along the way I’ve hired and managed countless painters, seeing both the strengths and frustrations homeowners face. That experience is why I’m passionate about Alba—building a painting company that solves those problems and makes projects simple, clear, and stress-free.

My role is meeting you in your home, uncovering your needs, and creating proposals you can trust. From estimate to final walkthrough, I stay hands-on to make sure our standards are delivered. Outside of work, I enjoy weekends on my dirt bike with my wife and kids, and reminding Stuart who really has the better golf game.” 

Candace Hickey

Owner & General Manager

 “As General Manager, I make sure every part of Alba runs smoothly and every client’s journey meets our white glove promise. I oversee operations, logistics, and customer service, ensuring projects are well-planned, communication is clear, and clients feel supported from start to finish.

I thrive on being busy, balancing the day-to-day of Alba with life on our family hobby farm. Whether I’m coordinating schedules, supporting the team, or checking in with clients, my focus is always on making the experience effortless and worth recommending.” 

Stuart MacKay

Owner & Marketing

 “For nearly 20 years I’ve worked in the painting trade across three continents—apprentice, safety officer, supervisor, estimator, and business owner. That journey gave me a deep respect for the craft and a clear vision for how painting companies should operate.

At Alba, I lead our marketing and brand, making sure our reputation reflects the standards we live by. I also coach other painting companies across North America, helping elevate the trade industry-wide. Outside work, I enjoy hiking, golfing, and time with my family, dog and our newborn.” 

Taylor Borth

Field Manager & Craftsmen Painter

 “With over 8 years of painting experience, I know the difference attention to detail makes. From prep to final brushstroke, I see every project as an opportunity to combine craftsmanship with care.

As Field Manager, I make sure crews are organized, supported, and delivering the experience we promise. I enjoy being on site, working with homeowners, and ensuring there are no surprises. Outside work, I pursue photography and art always finding new ways to create beauty.” 

Jason Sproat

Crew Lead & Cabinet Guru

 “After 22 years in the industry, I’ve learned that fulfillment comes from honest work and high standards. What drew me to Alba was the transparency, consistency, and commitment to craftsmanship that align with my own values.

As Crew Lead, I guide our painters to produce their best work and make sure clients feel confident throughout the process. For me, each project is about more than paint—it’s about pride, trust, and leaving a lasting result.”

Scott and his team are AAA+ Scott stepped in when we were stranded. Phenomenal communication, here when they said they would be, told us exactly what they would be painting, when they would leave, who would be here and cleaned up everyday before they left. Alba also provided a decorator to help with color choice. The color we chose is perfect. This team is top shelf professional, ethical, kind, considerate and full of integrity. They do what they say and say what they do.
We will chose them again and highly highly recommend them. Thank you for making our home so beautiful.

Scott was a pleasure to deal with and make the planning and communication very easy. They took good care in preparing my apartment and their work was well done, with no mess left afterwards! I was also thought the job was well priced and I enjoyed the photos shared at the end of the project. I would highly recommend Scott and his company to anyone and I will definitely be using Alba Painting again in the future 😁

We could not have been happier in our dealings with Alba Premium Painting. Scott provided a transparent and accurate estimate off the hop and was committed to delivering a quality product that we would be pleased with. The project started and ended on schedule, the quality was impressive, and the final cost was below the original estimate. Hats off to Scott for the fabulous communication, and to Taylor and her crew for their top notch talent and skill. The entire Alba team was exceptional in every regard and we will definitely hire them again in the future.

Scott and his team were amazing. We had booked two phases of painting with Alba Premium Painting & Wallcoverings, and Phase one is now complete. Must I say they met every expectation that I had. They are very skilled in their trade and I am so happy with the end result. I highly recommend this company.

Scott and his team did a fantastic job transforming our dark space to light and bright!!! We absolutely love it. Scott was very thorough with his information and communication was great. The free color consultation allowed us to feel 100% confident on our color choices. They cleaned up (vacuum and mop) everyday, leaving our place probably cleaner than it was before they got here haha. We would highly recommend Alba Premium to anyone and would use again in the future.
