The story
A trade handed down on the job.
Bob Guiffre has been painting for more than 37 years. In that time he has painted more than 1,800 homes across Grosse Pointe and Metro Detroit.
Experience at that scale teaches what no manual covers: how a surface tells you what it needs, which shortcuts show up two winters later, and how one straight, clean line can make a whole room look finished.
Today Bob’s son, Bobby, works beside him on every project — the same jobs, the same standards, the same name on the work.
That is the whole idea behind Guiffre’s: a family business where the people who care most about the name are the ones on your ladder.
And one more constant: the paint. Guiffre’s is faithful to Sherwin-Williams.

What the years teach
Four things 37 years make clear.
- 01
Prep is the job.
Paint is only as good as the surface under it. The hours you don’t see are the reason the finish lasts.
- 02
The line tells the truth.
Anyone can roll a wall. The edge where a wall meets the ceiling — straight, clean, consistent — is where skill shows.
- 03
Weather is part of the work.
In Michigan, when you paint matters as much as how. Temperature, dew and sun decide whether exterior paint cures properly.
- 04
It’s someone’s home.
Furniture, floors, gardens, routines. Respecting all of it is part of doing the job right.
Every house we paint carries the Guiffre name — in the work itself. It’s a standard you can hold us to.
