Over 30 Years of Industrial Painting Experience
Our Story
The History of Harrison Contracting Company
Deryl Harrison founds Harrison as an Agricultural Facilities Maintenance Company
Villa Rica, GA
Over the years he worked with a variety of Agricultural companies repainting feed mills, silos, and all types of industrial and commercial projects. He started our vision of being industry leaders by saying "We may be a bunch of painters, but we don't have to look like it!". From that quote forward, we have strived to improve the image of the painting industry and maintain our image with just as high of standards as you have for yours.
Harrison Contracting Company Incorporated
In 1995, HCC grew into the new construction market by painting its very first commercial project, a new construction Publix store on West Paces Ferry in the Atlanta area. From that point we grew our new construction division to service a variety of retail, commercial office, government, medical, and industrial painting services.
Destin Division Opens
HCC established its Destin, FL location to serve local businesses with expert commercial painting and facility maintenance. From resorts to shopping centers, we help properties stand out and stay protected in the coastal environment.
Begin Repaint Programs with Home Depot & Auto Zone
This was a key step in growing the repaint business. By starting programs with Home Depot and AutoZone, the company opened the door to larger, steady work with well-known national brands. These programs helped build trust, create repeat business, and strengthen the company's reputation for quality and reliability. Working with these major retailers also meant meeting strict standards for scheduling, safety, and finish quality. That experience helped improve internal processes and made the team better prepared for larger and more complex projects. It was an important milestone that supported long-term growth and set the stage for future expansion.
Atlantic Station Project
The repaint of Atlantic Station was HCC's first $1 million project, marking a major investment in the property's appearance and upkeep. This work refreshed the site and improved its overall look for tenants, visitors, and the community. The project also showed HCC's commitment to maintaining the value and appeal of Atlantic Station.
Headquarters Established in Villa Rica, GA
In 2007, HCC marked a big milestone by setting up its headquarters in Villa Rica, GA and launching its Savannah, GA division. These important moves reflected a deep commitment to R.E.D and the company's core values, helping the company grow with purpose and integrity. HCC used this year to build a stronger base for serving others and staying true to its mission.
Harrison Establishes its Dedicated Safety Program
HCC's dedicated Safety Program was established to demonstrate our strong commitment to RED and Core Values by putting people first in every part of the work. It helps build a safe, accountable, and respectful culture where every team member knows safety is a shared duty. Through steady training, clear standards, and daily attention to risk, HCC reinforces its promise to protect employees, partners, and the communities it serves.
